The original-research / data-study content type — turn proprietary data, a survey, a public-dataset analysis, or an experiment into the most linkable and AI-citable asset you can publish. Use when someone wants to build authority with original data, run a "state of X" survey or industry study, turn proprietary/customer data into a publishable stat, or get cited by journalists and AI search (GEO). Uses the PROVE framework. Reads brand-profile + audience-research first. The agent designs the…
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
# data-and-original-research The **original-data content type** — find a question inside a data void, run a sound method, analyse it honestly, voice the one finding that travels, and engineer it for citation. A study people *have to cite*; the **format writers** turn it into cuts, **WoopSocial publishes**, and recurring studies map into the **content-calendar.** ## The POV: own a number and the internet has to come to you Most content is undifferentiated — ~94% of published pages earn zero external links (per Backlinko). Original data is the rare exception: publications link to **stories, not products**, and a data finding is a story. It's also the **#1 GEO asset** — adding statistics is among the strongest levers for AI-answer visibility (per the Princeton/KDD GEO study), and original data is statistics nobody else owns. Brands skip it because it's harder than a listicle — which is exactly the moat. The catch: a study is worth **nothing the moment one number is wrong.** Rigor isn't pedantry; it's the entire value. So the skill is knowing **what** to study, **how** to get real data, and how to make the finding **impossible not to cite** — never inventing it. ## Read these first …

How to install
mdr add social-media-skills/skills/data-and-original-research@sha256:70997df03772d985The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.0, 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.
