At a glance

Detect anomalies and outliers in construction data: unusual costs, schedule variances, productivity spikes.

What it does

Data Anomaly Detector is an agent skill from datadrivenconstruction/DDC_Skills_for_AI_Agents_in_Construction. Detect anomalies and outliers in construction data: unusual costs, schedule variances, productivity spikes. Statistical and ML-based detection methods.

Its SKILL.md is about 4.8k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files (for example `claw.json` and `instructions.md`).

It sits in Data & Analytics, covering Anomaly detection and Data cleaning. The repository describes itself as: 221 AI skills for construction: BIM analysis, cost estimation, scheduling, document control, and automation with Claude Code. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Anomaly detection
  • Tasks that involve Data cleaning

Example prompts

  • “/data-anomaly-detector”

Requirements

  • Python 3

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit ce45bbf. 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

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • pip

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

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use pip, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.

    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

Data Anomaly Detector loads about 4.8k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 43 tokens; SKILL.md has 81 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~43
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~4.8k

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.

Data Anomaly Detector for Construction

Overview

Detect unusual patterns, outliers, and anomalies in construction data. Identify cost overruns, schedule delays, productivity issues, and data quality problems before they impact projects.

Business Case

Construction data often contains anomalies that indicate:

  • Cost estimate errors or fraud
  • Schedule logic issues
  • Productivity problems
  • Data entry mistakes
  • Equipment or material issues

Early detection prevents costly corrections and project delays.

Quick Start

python
import pandas as pd

# Load data
df = pd.read_excel("project_costs.xlsx")

# Initialize detector
detector = ConstructionAnomalyDetector()

# Run detection
config = {
    'source_name': 'Project Costs Q1 2026',
    'cost_columns': ['total_cost', 'labor_cost', 'material_cost'],
    'group_by': 'cost_code',
    'key_columns': ['project_id', 'cost_code', 'date'],
    'sequence_column': 'invoice_number'
}

report = detector.run_full_detection(df, config)

# Generate report
print(detector.generate_report(report))

# Get critical anomalies for immediate action
critical = [a for a in report.anomalies if a.severity == AnomalySeverity.CRITICAL]
print(f"\n{len(critical)} critical anomalies require immediate attention")
