What it does

Sci Statistics is an agent skill from franklee16/academic-research-skills. Use to enforce Science's statistics and reproducibility reporting — n and replication, test choice and assumptions, effect sizes with uncertainty, multiple-comparison control, randomization/blinding, and pre-registration where relevant.

Its SKILL.md is about 860 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 Statistics, Reproducible research and Database administration. 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

  • Enforce Sciences statistics and reproducibility reporting — n and replication
  • Test choice and assumptions
  • Effect sizes with uncertainty
  • Multiple-comparison control

Example prompts

  • “/sci-statistics”

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

Sci Statistics loads about 862 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 63 tokens; SKILL.md has 341 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~63
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~862

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 341 words (~862 tokens).

“Each claim needs: effect size + uncertainty + n + test + what n means.”
