Install

Install with the Skills CLI (verifies the checksum, previews the destination, never runs scripts)

skills install @spboucher/preregistered-research@1.0.0 --client claude-code

Add --project to install into .claude/skills/preregistered-research instead of ~/.claude/skills/preregistered-research.

Installs to (user)
~/.claude/skills/preregistered-research
With --project
.claude/skills/preregistered-research
Without the CLI: download, verify, extract (4 steps)

  1. 1Or manually: download the release archive

    curl -fsSLo preregistered-research-1.0.0.tar.gz https://skills.spboucher.ai/api/v1/artifacts/spboucher/preregistered-research/versions/1.0.0/download

  2. 2Verify the SHA-256 checksum

    echo "1c6e4c13b6a95e218523d483519bf48adc6170df3d5e8a2bb691200c09e00973  preregistered-research-1.0.0.tar.gz" | shasum -a 256 -c -

  3. 3Inspect the contents before extracting

    tar -tzf preregistered-research-1.0.0.tar.gz

  4. 4Extract into ~/.claude/skills/preregistered-research

    mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills/preregistered-research && tar -xzf preregistered-research-1.0.0.tar.gz -C ~/.claude/skills/preregistered-research
  • Declared permissions: shell, filesystem:read, filesystem:write.
  • Skills can contain scripts. Installing only copies files; read SKILL.md and any scripts before letting an agent use them.

Installing only copies or configures. Nothing is executed for you. The Skills CLI verifies the checksum before writing files.

Documentation

preregistered-research

An agent skill for running an empirical study the preregistered way, with a tamper-evident record.

It teaches the method (design review before data, a frozen protocol, numbered decisions and deviations, gates, guarded expensive steps, a budget, honest reporting of null results) and ships a small command-line tool that keeps the record: scripts/ledger.mjs.

What is inside

PathContent
SKILL.mdThe sequence and the rules
references/method.mdThe method in full
references/templates.mdProtocol, decision, deviation, gate review, transparency report
references/cli.mdEvery command, exit codes, file layout, status rules
scripts/ledger.mjsThe command-line tool
scripts/lib/ledger.mjsThe engine, identical to the one in research-ledger-mcp

Requirements

Node.js 20 or later. No packages to install, no network access, no account.

Quick start

shell
cd my-study
node /path/to/skill/scripts/ledger.mjs init --title "My study" --budget 40
node /path/to/skill/scripts/ledger.mjs hypothesis --statement "x raises y in the full sample" --test "OLS of y on x, clustered by unit" --rule "coefficient > 0, one-sided p < 0.05"
node /path/to/skill/scripts/ledger.mjs freeze --file protocol.md --file analysis.py
node /path/to/skill/scripts/ledger.mjs status

The record is written to .research/ in the project. Commit it with the work.

Limits

  • The hash chain shows that a record was edited, deleted, reordered or cut off. It does not stop someone from rebuilding the whole ledger; keep a copy of the root and head hashes outside the project if a third party must be convinced.
  • Timestamps are the local clock.
  • The tool records what it is told. It does not run or watch the analysis.

Permissions

Reads the files you list (to hash them) and writes inside .research/ of the project root. Runs with node, which is why the manifest declares shell.
