Three more learnings from alirezarezvani/claude-skills, applied: 1. SkillCheck validator (scripts/skillcheck.mjs) — validates every SKILL.md against the authoring standard (frontmatter, name/folder match, trigger + produces clauses, required headings) plus tier referential integrity. Errors fail CI; --strict fails on warnings too. New skillcheck.yml workflow and a SkillCheck status badge in the README. Current: 0 errors / 14 advisory warnings across 172 skills. 2. Cursor export platform — build-exports.mjs now generates exports/cursor/<bundle>/<skill>/<skill>.mdc rule files. The PLATFORMS registry now supports per-skill filenames (file as a function). 3. Per-agent installers — scripts/install.sh unifies install for claude/hermes/codex/openclaw/cursor (--link, --target, --dry-run, --list). Curl-able one-liners codex-install.sh, openclaw-install.sh, and cursor-install.sh clone the library and install in a single command. README documents the one-line installs and Cursor exports; CHANGELOG and the authoring standard updated.

|
|
- **Research question or hypothesis**
|
|
- **Setting and population**
|
|

|
### 1. Background and Rationale
|
|
- What is already known
|
|
- What the gap in knowledge is
|
|
- Why this study is needed now
|
|
|
|
### 2. Research Objectives
|
|
**Primary:** [One clear answerable question or hypothesis]
|
|
**Secondary:** [Additional questions]
|
|
|
|
### 3. Study Design
|
|
- **Design:** [RCT / cohort / qualitative / mixed methods]
|
|
- **Setting:** [Where]
|
|
- **Duration:** [Total period and recruitment window]
|
|
- **Rationale:** [Why this design fits the question]
|
|
|
|
### 4. Participants
|
|
|
|
**Inclusion criteria:** [List]
|
|
**Exclusion criteria:** [List]
|
|
**Sample size:** [n] — Basis: [Power calculation or saturation rationale]
|
|
**Recruitment:** [Method and source]
|
|
|
|
### 5. Methodology / Intervention
|
|
|
|
For interventional: intervention description, control, randomisation, blinding
|
|
For observational/qualitative: data collection methods, tools, data collectors
|
|
|
|
### 6. Outcomes / Measures
|
|
**Primary outcome:** [Measure], assessed by [method], at [timepoint]
|
|
**Secondary outcomes:** [Measure], [method], [timepoint]
|
|
|
|
### 7. Data Management
|
|
- Storage: [Where and anonymisation method]
|
|
- Access controls: [Who can access]
|
|
- Retention: [How long]
|
|
|
|
### 8. Analysis Plan
|
|
Quantitative: [Statistical test], [missing data handling], [software]
|
|
Qualitative: [Framework — e.g. Braun & Clarke], [quality assurance]
|
|
|
|
### 9. Ethical Considerations
|
|
- Ethics approval: [Body / reference]
|
|
- Informed consent: [Process]
|
|
- Confidentiality: [How maintained]
|
|
- Risk to participants: [Assessment and mitigation]
|
|
|
|
### 10. Dissemination Plan
|
|
- Target journals: [2-3 relevant]
|
|
- Conference presentations
|
|
- Public/patient summary
|
|
|
|
### 11. Timeline
|
|
|
|
| Phase | Activities | Start | End |
|
|
|---|---|---|---|
|
|
| Setup | Ethics, approvals, tool development | | |
|
|

|
|
| Data collection | | | |
|
|
| Analysis | | | |
|
|
| Write-up | | | |
|
|
|
|
## Quality Checks
|
|
- [ ] Primary objective is singular and answerable (not compound)
|
|
- [ ] Sample size has a stated basis (power calculation or saturation rationale)
|
|
- [ ] Ethical considerations section is complete
|
|
- [ ] Analysis plan is pre-specified (not "to be determined")
|
|
- [ ] Timeline includes all phases from ethics approval to write-up
|
|
|
|
## Anti-Patterns
|
|
|
|
- [ ] Do not write an analysis plan as "to be determined" — the analysis approach must be pre-specified before data collection
|
|
- [ ] Do not skip the ethical considerations section — all research involving human participants requires ethical review
|
|
- [ ] Do not define research questions so broadly that the study cannot answer them within scope and budget
|
|
- [ ] Do not conflate the research question with the hypothesis — state them separately and clearly
|
|
- [ ] Do not omit sample size justification — an underpowered study wastes resources and produces inconclusive results
|
|
|
|
## Example Trigger Phrases
|
|
- "Write a research protocol for [study]"
|
|
- "Help me design a study to investigate [question]"
|
|
- "Write the methodology for my research proposal"
