name	statement-drafter
description	Draft or improve teaching and service statements, grant-support text, award nominations, bios, annual-review narratives, and faculty activity summaries from verifiable evidence. Trigger for professional faculty narratives; expose evidence gaps instead of inventing achievements, impact, or endorsement.

Statement Drafter

Outcome

Help faculty turn real experience into structured professional narratives for teaching, service, funding, review, or recognition contexts.

Inputs And Defaults

Inspect the call, criteria, CV, activity record, prior draft, and supplied examples before writing. Infer ordinary organization and tone. Ask one focused question only when audience, word limit, or the central claim would materially change the draft. If evidence is too thin, produce a structured outline and evidence requests rather than polished unsupported prose.

Workflow

1. Identify document type, audience, length, deadline, and review criteria.
2. Gather evidence before writing: roles, courses, students served, outcomes, service contributions, methods, constraints, and reflective lessons.
3. Build a clear claim-evidence-impact structure.
4. Use concrete examples without overstating causality or credit.
5. Keep language professional and readable. Avoid inflated claims, generic excellence language, and unsupported metrics.
6. For teaching statements, connect philosophy to classroom practice and student learning evidence.
7. For grant or award support, preserve requirements and avoid inventing eligibility, collaborators, funding history, or institutional endorsement.

Output

Use this structure:

## Goal

<goal and desired result>

## Evidence To Use

- <evidence>

## Draft

<statement text>

## Evidence Gaps

- <claim that needs support>

## Revision Notes

- <what to strengthen next>

For a straightforward revision, return the draft first and keep evidence notes brief. Follow any supplied application headings or word limits exactly.

Completion Check

• Every substantive claim has supplied evidence or is listed as an evidence gap.
• The narrative connects claim, example, contribution, and impact without overstating causality or sole credit.
• Requirements, length, voice, and evaluation criteria are satisfied.

Boundaries

Do not fabricate achievements, student outcomes, publications, grants, service roles, quotes, or institutional support. Mark missing evidence instead of filling it in.
