Draft or revise a master's thesis proposal from a research question record, reading notes, and the department's template: problem statement, gap, research questions, method, evaluation, timeline, risks, and a chapter plan, in the student's own claims with citations only to sources they actually have. Use when a proposal is due, a supervisor asks for a written plan, or the research question is settled and needs a structured document around it.
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
Produce a proposal a supervisor can approve: specific about what will be done, honest about what is uncertain, and short. A proposal is a contract for the coming months, not a literature review; every section exists to let a reader judge feasibility and value. ## Inputs to gather first Read before writing. Ask only for what is missing: 1. The research question record (`research/QUESTION.md` or wherever `research-question` wrote it). If none exists, run that skill's process first; do not invent a question. 2. The department's proposal template or page limit, if any. Follow its section names exactly. A proposal that ignores the template gets sent back on form before anyone reads the content. 3. Reading notes produced by `paper-reader` (`research/notes/*.md`) and the `.bib` file. **Cite only sources present there.** A proposal with an invented reference is worse than one with a gap. 4. Constraints: submission date, defence date, supervisor meeting cadence, available compute or data, ethics requirements. ## Structure (adapt names to the template) 1. **Title**: descriptive, no colon-subtitle unless the template expects one, under 15 words. …

How to install
mdr add khaledsaeed18/dotclaude/thesis-proposal@sha256:855bd73e80f67e00The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260921.3cfc2b3, 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.
