MEL Framework Citation

Applies Ane's non-negotiable MEL/SRHR citation standard from CLAUDE.md. Generic framework references are a quality failure. This skill prevents that. Citation rigour is constant across audience tiers; placement varies by tier per CLAUDE.md "Audience tiers and register".

When to use

Trigger whenever the output is an MEL or SRHR deliverable: theory of change, evaluation design, indicator framework, donor report, programme analysis, decolonial or feminist evaluation note, OECD-DAC review, participatory method recommendation, SRHR rights analysis.

Do not trigger for non-MEL documents, general correspondence, or requests unrelated to evaluation/SRHR.

Required behaviour

Every MEL/SRHR claim must carry author surname, year, and specific document title. Minimum. Section or page when available. The rigour rule is tier-invariant; the placement rule is tier-specific (see below).

Citation placement by audience tier

Read the audience tier from the prompt's Standing instructions block (passed by Ann via Vi). If the tier is not stated, default to Tier 1 / colleague.
