SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill requires scholarly, scholarly-citations, scholarly-search, and includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

The Skill helps researchers identify whether empirical findings in the literature have been replicated, failed to replicate, or remain untested, enabling more robust and evidence-based research.

Core Features & Use Cases

Findings Inventory: Extracts key empirical findings from literature.
Replication Search: Searches for replication attempts for each finding.
Classification: Categorizes findings as replicated, failed, or never tested.
Dependency Mapping: Maps which papers depend on each finding.
Risk Assessment: Estimates the risk of not replicating findings.
Output Generation: Outputs a comprehensive replication audit report.

Quick Start

Run the 'replication-audit' skill on a specific topic, .bib file, or paper directory.

Frequently Asked Questions about replication-audit

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema

How do I check if empirical findings in my literature review have been replicated?▼

You can audit the replication status of empirical research findings by running this skill on a specific topic, a directory of PDF papers, or a .bib file. It extracts findings, searches for replication attempts, and classifies their status.

What is the best way to automate a replication audit for scientific validation?▼

The best way to automate a replication audit is using a skill that extracts key empirical findings, searches literature for replication attempts, and categorizes results. This approach maps dependencies and estimates the risk of findings not replicating.

Can I use .bib files and PDF directories to assess research integrity?▼

Yes, you can assess research integrity by running the replication audit directly on .bib files and PDF directories. The skill extracts empirical findings from these inputs and searches for corresponding replication studies to evaluate their validation status.

Does a replication audit require scholarly search dependencies to function?▼

Yes, the replication audit requires the scholarly-citations and scholarly-search dependencies to enable its search functionality. These dependencies are necessary to automatically locate replication attempts for each extracted finding in the literature.

How are empirical findings classified during a replication search?▼

During a replication search, empirical findings are classified into three categories: replicated, failed to replicate, or never tested. The process also maps which papers depend on each finding and estimates the risk associated with unreplicated results.
