How Proposal Drafting Works
The draft_proposal tool scores a job description against 4 templates:
- Template A -- MCP / Model Context Protocol projects
- Template B -- AI agents, autonomous systems, LLM integration
- Template C -- Discord bots and server management
- Template D -- General TypeScript/Python backend work
Keywords in the job title and description are matched against each template. The highest-scoring template is selected and combined with a custom opening that references the specific technologies mentioned in the listing.
