What it does

Table 1 Generator Advanced is an agent skill from aipoch/medical-research-skills. Generate publication-ready baseline characteristics tables (Table 1) for clinical research papers with automatic variable type detection, appropriate statistics (mean±SD, median[IQR, n(%)), group comparisons (t-test, chi-square), and APA formatting.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.6k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 4 other files, including scripts (for example `POLISH_CHANGELOG.md`, `eval_report_table-1-generator-advanced_result.json` and `scripts/main.py`).

It sits in Research & Science, covering Clinical and healthcare research, Statistics and Data analysis. The repository describes itself as: Hundreds of agent skills for medical research, including protocol design, data analysis, evidence insights, and academic writing. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Clinical and healthcare research
  • Tasks that involve Statistics
  • Tasks that involve Data analysis

Example prompts

  • “/table-1-generator-advanced”

Requirements

  • Python 3

Workflow steps

6 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Load and validate data — Input: CSV file path via --data → verify columns exist, check for missing values, detect data types…
  2. Identify grouping variable — Input: --group column name (e.g., treatment/control) → verify group balance → Output: group distribution…
  3. Select variables — Input: --vars list or auto-detect all eligible columns → classify each as continuous or categorical → Output: variable…
  4. Compute statistics — Continuous: mean±SD or median[IQR] (based on normality); Categorical: n(%); Group comparisons: t-test/chi-square → ⛔…
  5. Format Table 1 — Apply APA formatting, add p-values, footnotes for abbreviations → Output: --output CSV/Excel file
  6. Report missing data — Summarize missingness per variable, flag if >5% missing → Output: missing data appendix

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 686e09d. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Ships 1 file in scripts/ (Python), which the agent can run.

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • python

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Table 1 Generator Advanced loads about 1.6k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 69 tokens; SKILL.md has 675 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~69
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.6k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.

Table 1 Generator

Automated generation of baseline characteristics tables (Table 1) for clinical research papers.

Quick Check

Use this command to verify that the packaged script entry point can be parsed before deeper execution.

bash
python -m py_compile scripts/main.py

Audit-Ready Commands

Use these concrete commands for validation. They are intentionally self-contained and avoid placeholder paths.

bash
python -m py_compile scripts/main.py
python scripts/main.py --help

When to Use

Trigger phrases: "Table 1", "baseline characteristics", "demographic table", "clinical trial table", "summary statistics table"

  • Generating baseline characteristics tables (Table 1) for clinical research manuscripts
  • Comparing demographic and clinical variables across treatment groups
  • Creating summary statistics tables for clinical trial reports
  • Producing publication-ready tables with APA formatting

Workflow

  1. Load and validate data — Input: CSV file path via --data → verify columns exist, check for missing values, detect data types (continuous/categorical) → Output: data schema report
  2. Identify grouping variable — Input: --group column name (e.g., treatment/control) → verify group balance → Output: group distribution summary
  3. Select variables — Input: --vars list or auto-detect all eligible columns → classify each as continuous or categorical → Output: variable classification table
  4. Compute statistics — Continuous: mean±SD or median[IQR] (based on normality); Categorical: n(%); Group comparisons: t-test/chi-square → ⛔ Checkpoint: Confirm statistical method choices with user if normality is borderline → Output: statistics matrix
  5. Format Table 1 — Apply APA formatting, add p-values, footnotes for abbreviations → Output: --output CSV/Excel file
  6. Report missing data — Summarize missingness per variable, flag if >5% missing → Output: missing data appendix

Test Cases
  1. Basic Functionality: Standard input → Expected output
  2. Edge Case: Invalid input → Graceful error handling
  3. Performance: Large dataset → Acceptable processing time

Lifecycle Status

  • Current Stage: Draft
  • Next Review Date: 2026-03-06
  • Known Issues: None
  • Planned Improvements:
    • Performance optimization
    • Additional feature support

Output Requirements

Every final response should make these items explicit when they are relevant:

  • Objective or requested deliverable
  • Inputs used and assumptions introduced
  • Workflow or decision path
  • Core result, recommendation, or artifact
  • Constraints, risks, caveats, or validation needs
  • Unresolved items and next-step checks

Error Handling

  • If required inputs are missing, state exactly which fields are missing and request only the minimum additional information.
  • If the task goes outside the documented scope, stop instead of guessing or silently widening the assignment.
  • If scripts/main.py fails, report the failure point, summarize what still can be completed safely, and provide a manual fallback.
  • Do not fabricate files, citations, data, search results, or execution outcomes.

Input Validation

This skill accepts requests that match the documented purpose of table-1-generator and include enough context to complete the workflow safely.

Do not continue the workflow when the request is out of scope, missing a critical input, or would require unsupported assumptions. Instead respond:

table-1-generator only handles its documented workflow. Please provide the missing required inputs or switch to a more suitable skill.

Response Template

Use the following fixed structure for non-trivial requests:

  1. Objective
  2. Inputs Received
  3. Assumptions
  4. Workflow
  5. Deliverable
  6. Risks and Limits
  7. Next Checks

If the request is simple, you may compress the structure, but still keep assumptions and limits explicit when they affect correctness.
