@openhint/hintbook-proposal-manager

The official HINT vocabulary for sales & proposals. The assistant writes inside the approved offer; it never invents references, pricing, proof, or commitments.

Measured performance and retrieval results live in the core benchmark report.

Vocabulary

| Offer | offer, valueprop, differentiator, proof, claim, pricing, exclusion, commitment | | Response | requirement, answer, question, theme, objection, rebuttal | | Governance | legalreview, approval, deadline | | Shared core | never, source, term, assumption, risk, decision, openquestion, checklist, style, example, good, bad, read, res, notes |

Natural plurals and long forms are included as keyword synonyms; profession search synonyms are declared in keywords/hintbook.json. Full reference: docs/keywords.md.

Output and framing

| Command | Result | | --- | --- | | hint <path> | Scoped profession knowledge only. | | hint --prompt <path> | Role header, scoped knowledge, verification footer. | | hint --standalone <path> | Prompt plus the complete tag glossary. |

Verifiable surfaces: None; descriptive names are not treated as identifiers. These names are stable artifact identifiers and must appear verbatim.

Deterministic emit

The markdown pack emits reviewable proposal document structure without a model. Run hint emit <path> and gate CI with hint emit --check. Prose that templates cannot derive remains a marked hole.

Internal positions — objection, rebuttal, theme — deliberately have no emit template. They constrain the work and never leak into the published artifact.

Example

# offer springfield-monorail

Declared context for the proposal document.

# never Invented details

The assistant writes inside the approved offer; it never invents references, pricing, proof, or commitments.
