Use when checking a radiology or medical AI study design before drafting or submission. Reviews the analysis unit, cohort logic, leakage risks, comparator, validation strategy and reporting-guideline fit. AI-vs-expert benchmarks are /design-ai-benchmarking.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Design-Study Skill ## Core Review Questions Always inspect: 1. The exact research question. 2. The analysis unit: patient, lesion, exam, study, phase, report. 3. The index date or decision point. 4. How inclusion and exclusion criteria are applied. 5. Any information leakage. 6. The reference standard or endpoint definition. 7. A clinically meaningful comparator. 8. The validation strategy. 9. The uncertainty reporting required. 10. The best-fitting reporting guideline. 11. Whether exposure/outcome/covariate **definitions are literature-grounded** or invented ad hoc from the data dictionary. If ad hoc, defer to `/define-variables` before drafting Methods. --- ## Standard Output ```text ## Study Design Review Question: ... Study type: ... Analysis unit: ... Index date / prediction timepoint: ... ### Strengths - ... ### Major validity risks 1. ... 2. ... ### Minimal fixes - ... ### Reporting fit - Recommended guideline: ... ### Decision - Ready for analysis / Needs redesign / Drafting can proceed with limitations ``` …

How to install
mdr add aperivue/medsci-skills/design-study@sha256:ee49cc85fe95901dThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260930.c8ed96c, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
