Workflow

1. Gather input. Collect required fields (client name, contact, problem, firm name) and optional fields; infer the rest from context. See references/inputs.md.
2. Research the client. Pull company overview, recent news, tech signals, industry context, and competitors; organize into a research brief. See references/research.md.
3. Frame the problem and design the solution. Decompose into root problem, symptoms, business impact, stakeholders, and urgency; select a methodology and define phases and deliverables. See references/problem-and-solution.md.
4. Construct the timeline. Estimate duration, lay out phases with milestones, and state dependencies and assumptions. See references/timeline.md.
5. Compose the team. Map roles and allocations; use placeholder names if none provided and never fabricate credentials. See references/team.md.
6. Build pricing. Select a model (default: 3-tier fixed), set tier prices from rate benchmarks or a supplied budget, and add payment terms. See references/pricing.md.
7. Add terms and conditions. Insert the standard block, adjusting scope, IP, and assumptions to the engagement. See references/terms.md.
8. Assemble and write the proposal. Combine all sections into the output structure and write the file. See references/output-template.md.
9. Run the quality check. Verify accuracy, consistency, no placeholders, and no fabricated facts; match the selected tone. See references/tone-and-quality.md.
10. Deliver and summarize. Write to the output path and present the delivery summary with personalization applied and review recommendations. See references/output-template.md.

Guardrails

• Never fabricate case studies, team bios, credentials, or client facts. Omit rather than invent.
• If web research yields nothing, proceed without personalization and flag it.
• Leave no placeholder markers in the delivered document.
