What it does
Stata Replication is an agent skill from brycewang-stanford/Auto-Empirical-Research-Skills. Run replication, robustness, and specification-sensitivity workflows for Stata projects. Use when a researcher wants to reproduce a result, rerun a pipeline, compare specifications, audit a do-file sequence, or check whether a claim is stable.
Its SKILL.md is about 200 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 8 other files, including scripts and reference files (for example `agents/openai.yaml`, `manifest.json` and `references/workflow.md`).
It sits in Research & Science, covering Econometrics and empirical research and Database administration. 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
- A researcher wants to reproduce a result
- Rerun a pipeline
- Compare specifications
- Audit a do-file sequence
Example prompts
- “/stata-replication”
Requirements
- Python 3
Workflow steps
4 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- Identify the replication entrypoint.
- Run the baseline cleanly and capture logs and stored results.
- Compare requested variants in a structured way.
- Say whether the result truly replicates, partly matches, or breaks.
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
Ships 2 files in scripts/ (Python), which the agent can run.
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 Replication loads about 195 tokens when it runs, and up to ~317 if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 65 tokens; SKILL.md has 62 words of instructions outside code blocks.
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.
SKILL.md
Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 62 words (~195 tokens).
“Use this skill for reproducibility work rather than one-off execution.”
