proposal-polishlisted

Funding-proposal editing mode (NSF Project Summary/Description, NIH Specific Aims, fellowship proposals). Keeps the vision-and-feasibility register a paper would trim, enforces claim-feasibility matching, edits the score-forming first pages hardest, and applies the shared L0 lexical policy. Never invents preliminary data, partners, funding history, or letters, and is not for evading AI-use disclosure.

Restructured to the sci-paper feedback contract. # proposal-polish — funding-proposal editing mode ## When to use Editing or reviewing funding proposals: NSF Project Summary / Project Description (including CAREER), NIH Specific Aims / Significance / Innovation / Approach, fellowship and foundation proposals. **Not** for journal manuscripts (use `/sci-paper:paper` + `/sci-paper:paper-review`), and **never** to fabricate results, partners, funding history, or support letters. Using this skill does not remove the obligation to follow the funder's AI-use disclosure policy. ## Core register shift (vs. paper mode) A paper reports finished results; a proposal is scored on **vision plus feasibility**. Consequences: - **Keep and deploy ambition** ("long-term goal", "transformative", "establish a foundati
