What it does
Performing Causal Analysis is an agent skill from foryourhealth111-pixel/Vibe-Skills. Estimate causal effects from existing data. Use when fitting or interpreting DiD, ITS, synthetic control, regression discontinuity, or other treatment-effect analyses, including robustness checks and counterfactual plots. For choosing a study design before analysis, use designing-experiments instead.
Its SKILL.md is about 370 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 4 other files (for example `reference/diff_in_diff.md`, `reference/interrupted_time_series.md` and `reference/synthetic_control.md`).
It sits in Research & Science, covering Econometrics and empirical research and Experimental design. The repository describes itself as: Intelligent Skill routing and workflow orchestration for AI agents — +21.12 pp reward, −29.6% tokens on SkillsBench with DeepSeekV4Flash-VE. The licence is Apache-2.0.
When your agent uses it
- Interpreting DiD
- Synthetic control
- Regression discontinuity
- Other treatment-effect analyses
Example prompts
- “/performing-causal-analysis”
Workflow steps
4 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- Load Data: Ensure data is in a Pandas DataFrame.
- Initialize Experiment: Use the appropriate class (see References).
- Fit & Model: Models are fitted automatically upon initialization if arguments are provided.
- Analyze Results: Use summary(), print_coefficients(), and plot().
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit ddcaa2a. 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.
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
Performing Causal Analysis loads about 370 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 82 tokens; SKILL.md has 115 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); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Performing Causal Analysis
Executes causal analysis on existing data. This skill owns model setup, treatment-effect estimation, counterfactual comparison, robustness checks, and interpretation of fitted causal results.
It does not own the earlier question of which experiment or quasi-experiment should be designed before analysis begins.
Workflow
- Load Data: Ensure data is in a Pandas DataFrame.
- Initialize Experiment: Use the appropriate class (see References).
- Fit & Model: Models are fitted automatically upon initialization if arguments are provided.
- Analyze Results: Use
summary(),print_coefficients(), andplot().
Core Methods
experiment.summary(): Prints model summary and main results.experiment.plot(): Visualizes observed vs. counterfactual.experiment.print_coefficients(): Shows model coefficients.
