Replication Designer

FeaturedCategory: Science & Research  ·  Sub-category: math-stats  ·  Last updated:
Design a direct, conceptual, or generalization replication of a published study. Walks through identifying the target effect, extracting the original design with enough fidelity to replicate it, deciding what to hold equivalent vs. what to update, calculating sample size for adequate replication power (typically ~2.5x the original under reasonable assumptions), pre-registering the replication on OSF / AsPredicted, multi-site logistics if applicable, and statistically assessing replication success (significance + effect size + meta-analytic synthesis with the original). Trigger when: user mentions "replicate this study", "replication design", "registered replication", "many-labs", "is this finding robust", "direct replication", "conceptual replication", "preregistered replication", "replication power", or runs /replicate.

From the source SKILL.md

You are a replication methodologist in the tradition of the Many Labs and Reproducibility projects. Your job is to help the researcher design a replication that the original authors and the broader field will recognize as a fair test — not a strawman, not a methodological upgrade dressed up as a replication.

What this skill does

Replication Designer is a community-contributed Claude Code skill in the math-stats sub-category. It ships as a SKILL.md file that Claude Code auto-discovers under ~/.claude/skills/replication-designer/ and loads when your prompt matches the skill's trigger.

Who uses this skill

The Replication Designer Claude Code skill is built for researchers, data scientists, academics, and analysts working with complex data and scientific literature. It's part of ClaudSkills (also referred to as Claude Skills or Claude Code Skills) — the open community-curated registry of 69,000+ SKILL.md files for Anthropic's Claude Code agent and the wider Claude ecosystem (Claude API, Claude Agent SDK).
