Research ethics toolkit for social scientists. Covers (1) AI tool data privacy audit — document and report how data was handled when using tools like Claude Code, Codex, or ChatGPT, and produce journal-required AI use disclosures; (2) plagiarism check — self-plagiarism, text recycling, AI-generated text detection guidance, and originality statements; (3) research authenticity audit — detect and remediate p-hacking, HARKing, data fabrication risks, selective reporting, and misinterpretation of results; (4) general ethics standards — IRB review, informed consent, CRediT authorship, conflict-of-interest disclosure, data sharing, and AI use declarations. Produces a saved ethics compliance report and declaration text ready to paste into submissions. Works at any stage; invoke before submission, after an ethics concern arises, or as part of the full-paper pipeline.
