Executive Summary Drafting Skill

Drafts a federal proposal executive summary using the Shipley four-paragraph structure (Hook, Solution, Themes, Why Us) and four-line theme structure (Feature, Benefit, Proof, Action Caption). Produces three deliverables in one pass: a two-page master exec summary, three alt-tone versions (Conservative, Aggressive, Mission-First), and a Section M crosswalk table with REQ ID flow from the compliance matrix. Use when the user says "executive summary drafting", "draft exec summary", "proposal executive summary", "Shipley exec summary", or "exec summary skill". Built for federal proposal managers. Consumes Tool #2 capability statement, Tool #8 / #18 win themes, Tool #36 compliance matrix, customer pain. Slots into Tool #37 outline at V1-S1. Enforces theme litmus test, LPTA suppression for the Aggressive alt, banned marketing words, no fabricated proof, the discriminator versus differentiator distinction, and a HIGH-TRUST disclaimer. No FOUO, CUI, or classified content accepted.

What you get

A production-ready Claude skill that runs the workflow above on your own subscription — no SaaS contract, no procurement cycle, no third-party data layer. Install it and run it on the next pursuit that hits your desk.

How it ships

Delivered as installable source from Products/skills/executive-summary-drafting, with an install guide, a verification step, and a published scope (what it does, what it doesn't). Runs inside your Claude instance on the data you provide.

HIGH-TRUST discipline. Where this tool produces pricing, compliance, or past-performance artifacts, FAR/DFARS guardrails and "FOR INTERNAL ESTIMATE USE — NOT A PROPOSAL PRICE" disclaimers are embedded in the output. It does not replace qualified pricer, counsel, or color-team review.
