Research packs
36 packs, holding the reproducible half of 40 studies.
A pack is plain files: a README with the question and the kill
rule as they were committed before the data was fetched, the
scripts that ran, and the result tables. No page scripts, no build step —
open the directory and read it, or fetch it with anything that speaks HTTP.
Large raw data is not here. It lives on the server, is not in the repository, and every pack that depends on it says where it came from and how to fetch it again. One pack can answer several questions, so the studies are listed under the data they were drawn from rather than the other way round.

The rest of what is served here
15 more directories under /research/ that no
published study draws on. Some are pre-registrations sealed and
deliberately not run yet — the README says the date before which there
must be no data. Some are tools, infrastructure notes, or a record of
where raw data came from. They are listed because they are served: an
index that names only the resources it is proud of is not an index.

Every claim these packs settle is tabulated on Findings, with its verdict. The write-ups are in Experiments. This page is the files.
