research-proposal

research-proposal is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from Daisybastioned440/lite-research-agents. It costs 14 tokens per session (397 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of research-proposal, MIT.

A template for writing a research proposal, a short plan that explains a research problem, method, evidence, and expected results.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to describe the task, data, evaluation metric, related research, baseline, oracle, and other required parts of a two-page proposal.
Why use it?
It prevents proposals from being vague by requiring concrete inputs, outputs, measures of success, related work, and comparison methods.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

research-proposal scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 8d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

Research Proposal

A research proposal is a structured 2-page document. Every section must be present. Be concrete — vague claims are not acceptable.


Sections

1. Problem Statement and Task Definition

What does the system do? What is its input and output? What real-world problem does it solve? Scope must be neither too narrow nor too broad.

2. Input / Output Behavior

Concrete examples of inputs and outputs. Describe what the input and output variables look like and how they interact. Reference the actual data being used — do not describe hypothetical data.

3. Evaluation Metric

How will success be measured? Why is this metric the right one for this problem? A reasonably sized dataset of example input-output pairs must be identified — either from an existing source or collected from scratch.

4. Related Works

What existing research and projects are relevant? How does the proposed work differ? Reference specific papers and systems, not general fields.

5. Baseline and Oracle

  • Baseline: a simple, easy-to-implement approach that gives a lower bound on expected performance
  • Oracle: an upper bound — what would near-perfect performance look like?
  • Neither needs to be implemented for the proposal, but both must be clearly described. If the gap between baseline and oracle is too small, the task is probably not well-chosen.

6. Methodology and Challenges

How will the problem be approached? Why does this method fit? What are the key challenges? What algorithms or models are appropriate, and what are the tradeoffs between accuracy and efficiency?


Requirements

  • 2 pages maximum
  • Every section must be present — do not skip or merge sections
  • Concrete over vague in every section
  • Related works must cite specific papers, not just name fields

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
