scientific-method
From the author
The scientific method as an epistemological framework for producing reliable knowledge. Covers observation, question formation, hypothesis construction, experimental testing, data analysis, conclusion, and communication -- not as a rigid sequence but as an iterative cycle of inquiry. Includes falsifiability criteria, the role of replication, and the distinction between science, non-science, and pseudoscience. Use when teaching, applying, or evaluating the process of scientific inquiry at any level.

- research-methodologymagnus919/agent-skillsPlan, conduct, evaluate, and synthesize rigorous research investigations with credible evidence and a traceable method, including source-to-claim closure for media evidence. Do not use this skill for repeated source extraction and durable note orchestration; use `research-and-vault` for that capture workflow, or `ffmpeg` for media operations.Science★ 148
- scientific-thinkingAgents365-ai/365-skillsUse when interpreting research findings, evaluating scientific evidence, analyzing mechanisms, comparing competing hypotheses, designing experiments, or constructing scientific arguments.Science★ 90
- research-with-sourcesinkeep/open-knowledgeInvestigate a topic against preserved sources and write a draft-status research article under `research/` in a Knowledge Base project (the `knowledge-base` starter pack). Read when asked to research a topic, compare options, synthesize sources, gather evidence, or extend an existing research doc. Carries the full procedure: scan existing coverage, agree a research rubric, capture every source verbatim before analyzing, write the article incrementally so a crash never loses work, cite every claim, and link it back into the graph. Does not promote findings to canonical knowledge — that is the sibling `consolidate-notes` skill, after a decision lands.Science★ 4.7K
- scientific-critical-thinkingK-Dense-AI/scientific-agent-skillsEvaluates scientific claims and evidence quality. Applies to experimental design validity, biases and confounders, statistical interpretation, evidence grading frameworks (GRADE, Cochrane Risk of Bias), and teaching critical analysis. Supports evidence appraisal and identifying flaws; formal peer review writing belongs to peer-review.Science★ 54.5K
- scientific-writingK-Dense-AI/scientific-agent-skillsDrafts, revises, and audits scientific manuscripts or reports with explicit evidence provenance, reporting-guideline coverage, authorship accountability, confidentiality controls, and local consistency checks. Use for manuscript sections, references, declarations, tables, figures, or submission preparation when scientific accuracy and traceability matter.Science★ 54.5K
- scientific-brainstormingK-Dense-AI/scientific-agent-skillsFacilitates evidence-aware scientific ideation with independent generation, structured discussion, explicit assumptions, transparent evaluation, adversarial review, and decision logs. Use for early-stage research brainstorming or prioritizing candidate directions; hand off empirical validation, study design, ethics or regulatory review, and clinical questions to appropriate experts or skills.Science★ 54.5K
