STATA code pattern library for empirical archival accounting research.

  • Works in 3 steps: Index Search → Code Extraction → Adaptation and Citation
  • The user asks procedural questions like How do I implement [method]?
  • SKILL.md covers Scope and Limitations, Workflow, Fallback: Direct Grep Patterns and Corpus Overview, plus 1 more section
  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md

What it does

Stata Accounting Research is an agent skill from brycewang-stanford/Auto-Empirical-Research-Skills. STATA code pattern library for empirical archival accounting research. Provides tested syntax from 126 peer-reviewed JAR (Journal of Accounting Research) replication files (2017-2025). Use when the user asks procedural questions like "How do I implement [method]?" or "Show me code for [technique]" — including: entropy balancing, propensity score matching (PSM), difference-in-differences (DiD), regression discontinuity (RDD), instrumental variables (IV), event studies (CAR/BHAR), survival analysis, Fama-MacBeth…

Its SKILL.md is about 1.2k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 129 other files, including reference files (for example `README-original.md`).

It sits in Research & Science, covering Econometrics and empirical research and Accounting and bookkeeping. 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

  • The user asks procedural questions like How do I implement [method]?
  • Show me code for [technique] — including: entropy balancing
  • Propensity score matching (PSM)
  • Difference-in-differences (DiD)

Example prompts

  • “How do I implement [method]?”
  • “Show me code for [technique]”
  • “/stata-accounting-research”

Workflow steps

3 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Index Search
  2. Code Extraction
  3. Adaptation and Citation

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 stata).

    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

Stata Accounting Research loads about 1.2k tokens when it runs, and up to ~2.7M if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 225 tokens; SKILL.md has 391 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~225
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.2k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~2.7M

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 391 words (~1,238 tokens).

“This skill is a code pattern library, not a methodological advisor.”
