Format a Quarto or R Markdown report following APA 7th edition style. Covers apaquarto/papaja packages, title page, abstracts, citations, tables, figures, and reference formatting. Use when writing an academic paper in APA format, creating a psychology or social science research report, generating reproducible manuscripts with embedded analysis, or preparing a thesis or dissertation chapter.
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
# Format APA Report
Create an APA 7th edition formatted report using Quarto (apaquarto) or R Markdown (papaja).
## When to Use
- Writing an academic paper in APA format
- Creating a psychology or social science research report
- Generating reproducible manuscripts with embedded analysis
- Preparing a thesis or dissertation chapter
## Inputs
- **Required**: Analysis code and results
- **Required**: Bibliography file (.bib)
- **Optional**: Co-authors and affiliations
- **Optional**: Manuscript type (journal article, student paper)
## Procedure
### Step 1: Choose Framework
**Option A: apaquarto (Quarto, recommended)**
```r
install.packages("remotes")
remotes::install_github("wjschne/apaquarto")
```
**Option B: papaja (R Markdown)**
```r
remotes::install_github("crsh/papaja")
```
**Got:** The chosen framework package installs successfully and is loadable with `library(apaquarto)` or `library(papaja)`.
**If fail:** If installation fails due to missing system dependencies (e.g., LaTeX for PDF output), install TinyTeX first with `quarto install tinytex`. For GitHub installation failures, check that the `remotes` package is installed and that GitHub is accessible.

How to install
mdr add pjt222/agent-almanac/format-apa-report@sha256:f69ab8130ff0fea1The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0, 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.
