How It Works

M&E domain expertise built into Claude. No configuration, no prompts to remember.

  1. Install the Plugin

    Two commands in Claude Code, or the plugin browser in Claude Desktop Settings. Mac, Windows and Linux.

  2. Paste Your Document

    Paste a logframe, indicator set, TOR, or M&E plan into Claude. The plugin activates the right review skill automatically.

  3. Get a Scored Review

    Claude returns dimension scores, evidence from your document, and prioritized recommendations grounded in M&E standards.

Install the Plugin

Two commands in Claude Code. A minute, start to finish.

  1. 1

    In Claude Code, run the two commands below. The repository is its own plugin marketplace, so you add it once and install from it.

  2. 2

    If the install summary says "Run /reload-plugins to activate.", run that too.

  3. 3

    To check it worked, type /me-review: and you should see all twelve reviews listed.

  4. 4

    Paste any M&E document and Claude applies the right review skill automatically.

/plugin marketplace add mestudiohq/me-review
/plugin install me-review@me-review
Using Claude Desktop instead? Install the same plugin through the plugin browser in Settings.
