This file is byte-identical to the first copy the registry indexed. Same content hash, so the same checks give both the same grade.
design-science-methodology from khaledsaeed18/dotclaude is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Structure a thesis whose contribution is a built artifact (tool, system, method, model) using design science research: explicit problem and requirements, knowledge base, iterative build with design decisions recorded, and a rigorous evaluation strategy (technical benchmarks, controlled use, case study, expert review) that separates whether it works from whether it helps, following Hevner's guidelines and Peffers' process. Use when the thesis builds something, when a supervisor says a system…
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
Building a system is engineering; showing what is learned from building it is research. Design science research (DSR) is the frame that turns the first into the second: an artifact designed to solve a stated problem, evaluated with rigour, and a contribution to knowledge stated separately from the artifact itself. ## The process (Peffers et al.) 1. **Problem identification and motivation**: the problem, who has it, why existing solutions fall short (from `lit-review-synthesis`), and why solving it matters. Concrete and, where possible, quantified. 2. **Objectives of the solution**: requirements the artifact must meet, derived from the problem and the literature. Functional (must do X) and quality (latency under Y, usable by Z without training). Each requirement is later a row in the evaluation table. Number them (R1..Rn). 3. **Design and development**: the artifact, with its design decisions recorded as they are made (`adr-writing` works for this) and the knowledge they draw on (which theories, patterns, prior systems). The thesis describes architecture and the decisions, not every line. …

How to install
mdr add khaledsaeed18/dotclaude/design-science-methodology@sha256:e043d827e9505846The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260921.c8f5dc3, 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.
