# Decision Dossier Builder > **Caveat**: this skill is one author's playbook + 5-scenario stress test. Verify state fees / CPO terms / EV credits / dealer practices against current sources before quoting numbers to a dealer or making financial decisions. Not tax, legal, or financial advice. > **last_verified**: 2026-05-18 (Phase 3C sub-skill split from orchestrator) Narrow helper: drive `generate_dossier.py` to produce the 8-page HTML + PDF dossier the buyer hands the salesperson at test drive. Defers the script, templates, and YAML schema to the orchestrator's `scripts/` and `assets/`. ## When To Use - Buyer is ready for the in-store visit and wants a printable evidence packet - Need EN or CN version (CJK template available) - Buyer has comp anchors collected (XHS / Reddit / cross-bids) and wants them formalized into a single document ## When NOT To Use - Still in Phase 1 (criteria not locked) - too early; orchestrator first - Quote evidence not yet collected - delegate to `quote-evidence-collector` - Just need an OTD calculation - delegate to `otd-calculator` ## 3-Step Workflow 1. Copy `../orchestrator/assets/dossier_config_template.yaml` to a working file (e.g. `my_dossier.yaml`) and fill in 8-15 fields. 2. Run: ``` python ../orchestrator/scripts/generate_dossier.py \ --config my_dossier.yaml \ --output dossier.html \ --to-pdf dossier.pdf ``` 3. (Optional) Chinese template: ``` python ../orchestrator/scripts/generate_dossier.py \
