EDFacts — K-12 outcomes: assessment proficiency, ACGR graduation rates, ESSA accountability at school/district level (2009-2020).

  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md

What it does

Education Data Source Edfacts is an agent skill from brycewang-stanford/Auto-Empirical-Research-Skills. EDFacts — K-12 outcomes: assessment proficiency, ACGR graduation rates, ESSA accountability at school/district level (2009-2020). Within-state trends and subgroup gaps. Complements CCD with outcome data. Cannot compare across states — use NAEP.

Its SKILL.md is about 4.6k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 7 other files, including reference files (for example `references/accountability-context.md`, `references/assessment-data.md` and `references/data-quality.md`).

The repository describes itself as: 🔬 A curated collection of 23,000+ agent skills for empirical research across 8 social science disciplines. | 精选 23,000+ AI Agent 技能库,覆盖8大社会科学学科的实证研究。CoPaper.AI…

Example prompts

  • “Use the education-data-source-edfacts skill to edfact — K-12 outcomes: assessment proficiency, ACGR graduation rates, ESSA accountability at…”
  • “/education-data-source-edfacts”

Requirements

  • Python 3

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 9fa87d8. 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

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are 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

Education Data Source Edfacts loads about 4.6k tokens when it runs, and up to ~26k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 69 tokens; SKILL.md has 1,606 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
~4.6k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~26k

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); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 1,606 words (~4,616 tokens).

“EDFacts — federal K-12 outcome data from State Education Agencies, covering state assessment proficiency rates, ACGR graduation rates, and ESSA accountability indicators at school and district level (assessments 2009-2020, graduation rates 2010-2019).
