SAIPE — annual Census poverty estimates for school districts (Portal; county/state not in Portal).

  • District poverty
  • SKILL.md covers What is SAIPE?, Reference File Structure, Decision Trees and Quick Reference: SAIPE Variables, plus 5 more sections
  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md
  • Title I context

What it does

Education Data Source Saipe is an agent skill from brycewang-stanford/Auto-Empirical-Research-Skills. SAIPE — annual Census poverty estimates for school districts (Portal; county/state not in Portal). Use for district poverty, Title I context, or trends. ~18-month lag. No race/ethnicity disaggregation at district level — use ACS 5-year for that.

Its SKILL.md is about 3.6k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 7 other files, including reference files (for example `references/comparison-other-sources.md`, `references/data-quality.md` and `references/estimation-methodology.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…

When your agent uses it

  • District poverty
  • Title I context

Example prompts

  • “/education-data-source-saipe”

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 Saipe loads about 3.6k tokens when it runs, and up to ~17k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 68 tokens; SKILL.md has 1,260 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~68
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~3.6k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~17k

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 1,260 words (~3,617 tokens).

“Census Bureau Small Area Income and Poverty Estimates (SAIPE) — annual model-based poverty estimates for school districts (Portal mirror; county and state data not in Portal). Use when district-level poverty is needed for Title I allocation interpretation, annual poverty trend…”
