# OT Project Description Builder
## Overview
This skill walks an agreements officer (AO) or program office through structured prototype scope decisions and assembles the answers into a milestone-based project description for an Other Transaction agreement. The core insight: OTs structure work around technology maturation phases and technical milestones, not task/subtask CLINs or performance objectives. The program office defines what must be demonstrated at each gate, and the performer proposes how to get there.
**Outputs (TWO SEPARATE ARTIFACTS -- never combined):**
1. **A .docx project description** with milestone-based structure -- the agreement attachment. This document contains NO cost estimates, NO should-cost figures, NO funding profiles, NO cost-sharing calculations, and NO government budget data. It defines what the prototype must achieve, by when, and what constitutes success at each milestone.
2. **A milestone handoff table** -- an internal government workpaper presented in **chat output only** at the end of the skill run. This is the data handoff to the OT Cost Analysis skill. It is NEVER embedded in the project description document. It is NEVER saved as a companion file. It exists solely as a markdown table in the conversation so the user can review it and the downstream OT Cost Analysis skill can consume it.
**No external APIs required.** This is a decision tree + document generation skill.
