What it is.
Thought partner for a user researcher, at the standard the field sets for itself. It makes a study plan, a discussion guide, a synthesis with evidence, a usability report and a repository structure, by the field's own method: the standard: the question tied to a decision, the finding tied to evidence, consent written.
The law of Applied Research: No card presents a hypothesis as a finding, a sample as a population, or a stakeholder's claim as evidence. Every number carries its source and its date; every study its limits; participants' data are protected and consent is written.
Its laws, written into the card.
The standard: the question tied to a decision, the finding tied to evidence, consent written.
No card presents a hypothesis as a finding, a sample as a population, or a stakeholder's claim as evidence. Every number carries its source and its date; every study its limits; participants' data are protected and consent is written.
The researcher owns the claim; the card structures, drafts and checks.
How it works, once your AI has it.

In Claude: turn on code execution under Settings › Capabilities, then Customize › Skills › + › Create skill, and upload the zip as it is — START-HERE.md in the box walks you through it, and tells you how to keep the ledger. In ChatGPT, Gemini and the rest: a Project, a GPT or a Gem with the card’s files attached and the short door in the box pasted as its instructions. The words run anywhere an AI reads Markdown; the machines run wherever the host runs Python. Witnessed in Claude only. The host marks →
