1	# Research Proposal Generator
2
3	Generate high-quality academic research proposals for PhD applications following Nature Reviews-style academic writing conventions.
4
5	## Overview
6
7	This skill guides the generation of research proposals through a structured 5-phase workflow:
8
9	1. Requirements Gathering - Collect research topic, domain, language preferences
10	2. Literature Collection - Gather relevant literature from multiple sources
11	3. Outline Generation - Create structured outline for user approval
12	4. Content Writing - Generate full proposal based on approved outline
13	5. Output & Review - Deliver Markdown file with quality checklist
14
15	Target Output: 2,000-4,000 words (default ~3,000 words) for PhD applications.
16
17	---
18
19	## Phase 1: Requirements Gathering
20
21	Use `AskUserQuestion` to collect the following information:
22
23	### Required Information
24
25	1. Research Topic/Direction
26	- What is the core research question or area?
27	- Any specific problems to address?
28
29	2. Academic Domain
30	- STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics)
31	- Humanities (History, Philosophy, Literature, Languages)
32	- Social Sciences (Sociology, Psychology, Economics, Political Science)
33
34	3. Output Language
35	- English
36	- 中文 (Chinese)
37
38	4. Target Word Count
39	- Default: 3,000 words
40	- Range: 2,000-4,000 words (humanities may extend to 10,000)
41
42	### Optional Information
43
44	5. Target Institution(s)
45	- University/research group names
46	- Specific faculty members of interest
47
48	6. Existing Materials
49	- User's prior research or publications
50	- Relevant literature already collected in Zotero
51
52	### Example Questions
53
54	```
55	Questions to ask the user:
56
57	1. "What is your research topic or direction? Please describe the core question or problem you want to investigate."
58
59	2. "Which academic domain does your research belong to?"
60	- STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics)
61	- Humanities (History, Philosophy, Literature)
62	- Social Sciences (Sociology, Psychology, Economics)
63
64	3. "What language should the proposal be written in?"
65	- English
66	- 中文 (Chinese)
67
68	4. "Do you have a target word count? (Default: ~3,000 words)"
69
70	5. "Are you applying to specific institutions or working with particular faculty?"
71
72	6. "Have you uploaded relevant literature to your Zotero library that I should reference?"
73	```

76
77	## Phase 2: Literature Collection
78
79	### Literature Sources Strategy
80
81	```
82	┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
83	│ Literature Sources │
84	├─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┤
85	│ General Info → WebSearch (trends, news, reviews) │
86	│ Open Access → arXiv, PubMed (preprints, OA papers)│
87	│ Closed Access → Zotero MCP (user's uploaded papers) │
88	└─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
89	```
90
91	### Using WebSearch
92
93	Search for:
94	- Recent review articles and meta-analyses
95	- Research trends and emerging topics
96	- News about breakthroughs in the field
97	- Methodological advances
98
99	Example searches:
100	```
101	"{topic} systematic review 2024 2025"
102	"{topic} research trends future directions"
103	"{topic} methodology recent advances"
104	```
105
106	### Using Zotero MCP
107
108	IMPORTANT: Remind users to upload relevant closed-access literature to Zotero before starting.
109
110	#### Search User's Library
111
112	```
113	# Search by topic keywords
114	Use: mcp__zotero__zotero_search_items
115	Parameters: query = "{research topic keywords}"
116
117	# Advanced search with filters
118	Use: mcp__zotero__zotero_advanced_search
119	Parameters: conditions based on author, title, year, tags
120
121	# Semantic search for related papers
122	Use: mcp__zotero__zotero_semantic_search
123	Parameters: query = "{research question}"
124	```
125
126	#### Retrieve Paper Content
127
128	```
129	# Get full text content
130	Use: mcp__zotero__zotero_get_item_fulltext
131	Parameters: item_key = "{item key from search}"
132
133	# Get user's annotations and highlights
134	Use: mcp__zotero__zotero_get_annotations
135	Parameters: item_key = "{item key}"
136
137	# Get user's notes
