Routes R work: analysis design, tidyverse, event-study DiD, packages, testthat, CRAN, profiling, targets. Use when a project is R-first or the user needs R help; diffs and PRs go to method-review.
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
# R Statistics Router ## Skill Value - **Problem it solves:** R projects need language-specific workflow guidance without bypassing Methodsmith design, data-QA, and reporting gates. - **Use when:** The project uses R, RStudio, `.R`, `.Rmd`, `.qmd`, `renv`, `DESCRIPTION`, or `_targets.R`. - **Output:** A selected R workflow with the relevant analytical contract and validation plan. - **Ask only if:** The task could reasonably belong to more than one R workflow. - **Do not do:** Do not change package dependencies, publish to CRAN, or replace failed data with synthetic examples without explicit authorization. ## Route Pick the narrowest row and read its reference file before writing code. Each file holds that workflow's scope, steps, and guardrails. | Task | Workflow | |---|---| | R analysis design, base R, modeling, sensitivity analysis | Use the shared R workflow below | | Read-only R code review | Read `references/review.md` | | dplyr, tidyr, ggplot2, purrr, joins | Read `references/tidyverse.md` | | Event-study or staggered adoption design | Read `references/event-studies.md` | | Package API, documentation, release structure | Read `references/package-development.md` | …

How to install
mdr add sajor2000/methodsmith/method-r@sha256:3df42a46ee585542The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261016.114b5d8, 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.
