What it does

Readout Handicap is an agent skill from hh-health-AI/healthcare-equity. This skill should be used when the user says "handicap this readout", "pre-mortem the Phase 3", "what are the odds this trial works", "assess the trial design for [TICKER]", or before any binary clinical data event where probability of success and outcome scenarios drive positioning.

Its SKILL.md is about 560 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files, including reference files (for example `references/prompts.md`).

It sits in Marketing & SEO, covering Positioning and messaging and Clinical and healthcare research. The repository describes itself as: Synthesis engine for buy-side healthcare equity research. The licence is MIT.

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.

Network

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

Readout Handicap loads about 555 tokens when it runs, and up to ~767 if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 75 tokens; SKILL.md has 215 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it: ~75
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches: ~555
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them: ~767

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.

Readout Handicap

Handicap an upcoming clinical readout: audit the design, set base rates, decompose probability of success, and map outcome scenarios to positioning.

Workflow

Pull the trial from the Clinical Trials connector: design (randomization, blinding, comparator, N, endpoints and hierarchy, powering assumptions where inferable), status and date history. Retrieve the prior-phase data (company disclosures, PubMed publication of the Phase 2) and any protocol publication. Note registry-vs-guidance timing divergence.
Run the SUB-BIO-01 prompt (in ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/readout-handicap/references/prompts.md): trial design → phase-transition base rate → comparator → outcome distribution with probabilities → stock implications including "wins but disappoints" → positioning.
Anchor probabilities in ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/references/base-rates.md; adjust for indication-specific rates, endpoint quality (surrogate vs clinical, effect size vs powering, multiplicity), the Phase 2→3 translation gap (single-arm or small-N Phase 2s inflate expectations), and enrollment/timing signals. Show the PoS decomposition explicitly: technical × regulatory × commercial.
Build the outcome distribution as mutually exclusive scenarios per the scenario discipline in ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/references/evidence-translation-clinical.md — including clean win, statistical-win/clinical-shrug ("wins but disappoints"), mixed/subgroup, miss, and safety surprise — each with a probability and expected stock reaction vs what's implied.
State the smart short's critique of the design (the criticisms a skeptic would raise) before concluding.
End with the EVIDENCE BRIEF block (layer: clinical). Pass the PoS and scenario set to healthcare-equity model-valuation (MOD-03 rNPV) and portfolio (PORT-02 catalyst concentration).
