The developmental twist is that much data come from **minors and vulnerable populations**, so "share everything" is tempered by **consent scope, confidentiality, and re-identification risk** — handled as a justified, documented constraint, not silent opacity.

How do I install it?

Run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill devpsych-open-science-and-transparency --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.

Where does this skill come from?

From brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills, a repository with 909 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.

Is a popular skill a good skill?
