What it does
Faers Safety Scan is an agent skill from hh-health-AI/healthcare-equity. This skill should be used when the user asks about "FAERS", "adverse event signal", "disproportionality", "PRR", "ROR", "safety short", "is there a signal on [drug]", "boxed warning risk", "label change risk", or wants to screen post-market safety reporting for a marketed drug against a comparator.
Its SKILL.md is about 840 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files, including reference files (for example `references/disproportionality.md`).
The repository describes itself as: Synthesis engine for buy-side healthcare equity research. The licence is MIT.
When your agent uses it
- Asks about FAERS
- Adverse event signal
- Disproportionality
- Is there a signal on [drug]
Example prompts
- “adverse event signal”
- “disproportionality”
- “safety short”
- “/faers-safety-scan”
Workflow steps
9 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- Define the comparator before you pull anything. The default of "all other

What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 6c7bda8. 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
Faers Safety Scan loads about 843 tokens when it runs, and up to ~1.6k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 79 tokens; SKILL.md has 449 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.

FAERS safety scan
Screen a marketed drug's adverse-event reporting for disproportionate signals, size the commercial exposure if the signal escalates, and be explicit that this is a screen rather than a finding.
Workflow
- Define the comparator before you pull anything. The default of "all other drugs in FAERS" is almost always the wrong comparator for an investment question, because it confounds the indication. Prefer: other drugs in the same class, or drugs treating the same indication. State the comparator in the brief.
- Define the event term precisely. MedDRA preferred terms are narrow. A "liver injury" question needs a term list (hepatotoxicity, hepatic failure, ALT increased, jaundice, drug-induced liver injury), not one term. Run the list, report per-term and aggregated, and show the list in the output.
- Set a time window and hold it constant across drug and comparator. Reporting volume grows secularly, so an unwindowed comparison favours older drugs.
- Run
scripts/faers_disproportionality.py. It builds the 2×2 and returns PRR, ROR with 95% CI, chi-square with Yates correction, and the Evans criteria flag. - Apply the Evans screening criteria (a ≥ 3 cases, PRR ≥ 2, chi-square ≥ 4). All three, not one. A PRR of 8 on two cases is noise.
- Test for notoriety. Plot reports by quarter. If the rise begins within a quarter of a publication, an FDA communication, a competitor's marketing campaign or plaintiff-firm advertising, discount it heavily and say so.
- Check what FDA has already done. Search the current label (openFDA
/drug/label) for the event. If it is already in Warnings and Precautions, the incremental news is an escalation to boxed warning or a REMS, not the signal itself — a much higher bar. - Size the exposure. Which revenue line, what share of it, and what an analogue label change did to comparable franchises. This is where the skill earns its keep; a signal with no revenue attached is not an investment.
- Emit the brief.

What escalation actually looks like
The path from FAERS signal to a stock-moving event is long and mostly does not complete: signal → FDA screening (FAERS quarterly signal listing) → Drug Safety Communication → label change → boxed warning → REMS → withdrawal. Each step is progressively rarer. Position for the step you can name and date, not for the end of the chain.
The FDA's own quarterly "Potential Signals of Serious Risks" listing is public and is a far stronger signal than a home-built PRR, because it means the agency is already looking. Check it before building your own.
Not-automatic
A disproportionate reporting ratio does not license a causality claim, an incidence estimate, or a forecast of regulatory action. It licenses a monitor with a named follow-up observable.
