• Funder / call (who is funding this?)
• Deadline (if known)
• Related projects (which project(s) does this build on?)
• Website (call URL, if available)

2. Read template

Read: Templates/Proposal.md

Study the exact structure before creating.

3. Create proposal file

File name: Exact proposal title Location: Proposals/ Template: Templates/Proposal.md (copy EXACTLY)

SELF-CHECK

✅ Did I read Templates/Proposal.md first? ✅ Are ALL template sections present? ✅ Is status valid (planned|submitted|accepted|rejected)? ✅ Does proposal link to at least one project? ✅ Are project links in [[brackets]]? ✅ No orphan proposals created?
