What it does

Est Data Analysis is an agent skill from franklee16/academic-research-skills. Use when executing and reporting the analysis for an Environmental Science & Technology (ES&T) manuscript so it survives expert review — analytical QA/QC, honest uncertainty, statistics appropriate to environmental data, and closed mass balances. It guides analysis and reporting norms; it does not fabricate results.

Its SKILL.md is about 910 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Data & Analytics, covering Data analysis and Statistics. The repository describes itself as: Comprehensive collection of Claude Code skills for academic research in economics, finance, and social sciences.

When your agent uses it

  • Honest uncertainty
  • Statistics appropriate to environmental data
  • Closed mass balances

Example prompts

  • “/est-data-analysis”

Workflow steps

6 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Report QA/QC explicitly. Method/field blanks, matrix-spike recoveries, CRM results, LOD/LOQ,
  2. Honest uncertainty. Report replicates with measures of dispersion (SD/SE/CI), not single
  3. Right statistics for environmental data. Handle left-censored (below-LOD) data correctly
  4. Mass / energy balance. Account for products, sorbed and volatilized fractions, and losses;
  5. Kinetics / dose–response. Report rate constants/half-lives with CIs and goodness of fit;
  6. Effect size & significance. Give magnitudes and intervals, not p-values alone; relate results

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 9a4b2db. 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

Est Data Analysis loads about 913 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 84 tokens; SKILL.md has 323 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~84
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~913

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

Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 323 words (~913 tokens).

“ES&T reviewers scrutinize the analytical chain: blanks, recoveries, detection limits, replicates, and whether the numbers add up. This skill covers execution and reporting; design decisions live in est-study-design, and deposit/reproducibility in est-reporting-and-reproducibility.”
