What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 9b2ef9e. 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

    Ships 1 file in scripts/ (Python), which the agent can run.

    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

Health Data Dpia loads about 2.4k tokens when it runs, and up to ~3k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 112 tokens; SKILL.md has 1,114 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~112
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~2.4k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~3k

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); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.

Assessing Health Data Processing

Overview

Health data is classified as a special category under GDPR Art. 9(1), requiring both a lawful basis under Art. 6(1) and an Art. 9(2) exemption for processing. Processing of health data on a large scale triggers a mandatory DPIA under Art. 35(3)(b). This skill provides a DPIA methodology for health data processing scenarios: electronic health records, clinical trials, health research, telemedicine, health applications, medical devices, and genetic data analysis.

Art. 9(1) — Definition of Health Data

GDPR Art. 4(15) defines data concerning health as "personal data related to the physical or mental health of a natural person, including the provision of health care services, which reveal information about his or her health status."

This includes:

  • Medical records and diagnoses
  • Prescription and medication data
  • Laboratory results and imaging
  • Mental health assessments
  • Disability information
  • Genetic data (Art. 4(13))
  • Biometric data processed for health purposes
  • Health insurance claims
  • Fitness and wellness data that reveals health status
  • Data inferred from non-health data that reveals health conditions
Art. 9(2) Exemptions for Health Data
ExemptionReferenceApplication
Explicit consentArt. 9(2)(a)Patient consent for specific health processing. Must be separate from treatment consent.
Employment obligationsArt. 9(2)(b)Occupational health assessments required by employment law.
Vital interestsArt. 9(2)(c)Emergency medical treatment where patient cannot consent.
Healthcare provisionArt. 9(2)(h)Processing necessary for preventive or occupational medicine, medical diagnosis, provision of health or social care, or management of health systems. Must be processed by or under the responsibility of a professional subject to medical secrecy.
Public healthArt. 9(2)(i)Processing necessary for public health purposes including protecting against serious cross-border threats, ensuring high standards of quality and safety of health care, medicinal products, or medical devices.
Scientific researchArt. 9(2)(j)Processing necessary for scientific research purposes (including clinical trials) subject to Art. 89(1) safeguards: data minimisation, pseudonymisation where possible.
EU Clinical Trials Regulation 536/2014
  • Art. 28: Protection of subjects and informed consent.
  • Art. 28(2): Informed consent must be separate from consent for data processing under GDPR.
  • Art. 56: Transparency through the EU Clinical Trials Information System.
  • Art. 61: Facility requirements including controlled access to clinical trial materials.

Health Data DPIA Methodology

Phase 1: Health Data Classification (Week 1)
  1. Inventory all health data elements processed.
  2. Classify each element:
    • Direct health data (diagnoses, test results, prescriptions)
    • Indirect health data (insurance claims, appointment records)
    • Inferred health data (wellness app data, genetic risk scores)
    • Genetic data (DNA sequences, genotype data, pharmacogenomic data)
  3. Identify the Art. 9(2) exemption for each processing activity.
  4. Verify that processing is under the responsibility of a health professional subject to professional secrecy (Art. 9(2)(h) and Art. 9(3)).
Phase 2: Lawful Basis and Exemption Analysis (Week 2)

For each health data processing activity, document:

RequirementDocumentation
Art. 6(1) lawful basisWhich Art. 6(1)(a)-(f) basis applies
Art. 9(2) exemptionWhich Art. 9(2)(a)-(j) exemption applies
Member State derogationWhether national law provides additional conditions (Art. 9(4))
Professional secrecyWhether processing is under a professional subject to secrecy obligation (Art. 9(3))
Data subject consentIf relying on Art. 9(2)(a), evidence of explicit consent separate from treatment consent
Phase 3: Clinical Trial Specific Assessment (if applicable)
Assessment AreaRequirements
Informed consentCTR Art. 28 consent separate from GDPR consent; plain language; withdrawal right without impact on treatment
PseudonymisationClinical trial data should be pseudonymised with key held by principal investigator; sponsor should not hold re-identification key
Data minimisationCollect only data specified in the clinical trial protocol; no speculative data collection
International transfersMulti-centre trials involve transfers; each transfer requires Chapter V mechanism
RetentionCTR Art. 58: sponsor retains trial master file for 25 years; reconcile with GDPR storage limitation
Secondary useRe-use of clinical trial data for future research requires additional ethical approval and GDPR lawful basis
Show full SKILL.md (488 more words)Show less
Phase 4: HIPAA Crosswalk (for transatlantic operations)
HIPAA ProvisionGDPR EquivalentGap Assessment
HIPAA Privacy Rule (45 CFR 164.500-534)GDPR Art. 5 principles + Art. 9 special categoriesGDPR is more restrictive: broader definition of health data; explicit consent standard higher; no Treatment-Payment-Operations (TPO) exception
HIPAA Security Rule (45 CFR 164.302-318)GDPR Art. 32 security of processingLargely aligned: both require risk assessment, encryption, access controls, audit logging
HIPAA Breach Notification (45 CFR 164.400-414)GDPR Art. 33-34GDPR stricter: 72-hour notification to SA; HIPAA allows 60 days
HIPAA Minimum NecessaryGDPR Art. 5(1)(c) data minimisationAligned in principle; GDPR applies more broadly
HIPAA Business Associate AgreementGDPR Art. 28 DPABoth require written agreements with processors; GDPR DPA is more prescriptive
HIPAA Patient RightsGDPR Art. 15-22GDPR provides broader rights (portability, erasure, restriction, objection)
HIPAA De-identification (Safe Harbor / Expert)GDPR Recital 26 anonymisationDifferent standards: HIPAA Safe Harbor has 18 specific identifiers; GDPR requires irreversibility assessment
Phase 5: Risk Assessment (Week 3-4)
RiskDescriptionTypical Level
HD-R1Health data breach exposing sensitive diagnoses, conditions, or genetic informationVery High
HD-R2Re-identification of pseudonymised health data through linkage with other datasetsHigh
HD-R3Discriminatory use of genetic data (insurance denial, employment discrimination)High
HD-R4Unauthorised access by healthcare staff beyond clinical need-to-knowHigh
HD-R5Secondary use of clinical trial data without participant awarenessMedium
HD-R6Cross-border transfer of health data to jurisdictions with weaker protectionsHigh
HD-R7Patient re-identification through aggregation of fitness/wellness app dataMedium
Phase 6: Genetic Data Specifics

Genetic data has unique privacy characteristics:

  • Perpetual sensitivity: Genetic information does not change over a lifetime and reveals information about biological relatives.
  • Familial implications: An individual's genetic data reveals information about parents, siblings, and children who have not consented to processing.
  • Predictive power: Genetic data can predict future health conditions, creating insurance and employment discrimination risks.
  • Irreversibility: Once genetic data is disclosed, it cannot be "unlearned" or reset.

Additional requirements for genetic data:

  • Art. 9(4) permits Member States to impose further conditions on genetic data processing.
  • Germany: Gendiagnostikgesetz (GenDG) imposes strict limitations on genetic testing in employment and insurance contexts.
  • France: Code de la sante publique Art. L1131-1 restricts genetic testing to medical and scientific purposes.

Enforcement Precedents

  • Finnish DPA vs Pihlajalinna (2021): EUR 608,000 fine for health services company where employees accessed patient records without clinical justification — inadequate access controls and logging.
  • Portuguese DPA vs Hospital do Barreiro (2018): EUR 400,000 fine for hospital where non-clinical staff had access to patient records through failure to implement role-based access controls.
  • Dutch DPA vs OLVG Hospital (2021): EUR 440,000 fine for inadequate access controls on electronic patient records — insufficient two-factor authentication and logging of access.
  • Swedish DPA vs Capio St. Goran (2020): SEK 30 million fine for hospital failing to conduct DPIA for patient records system and failing to implement adequate access controls.
  • ICO vs Pharmacy2U (2015): GBP 130,000 fine for selling patient data to marketing companies without consent.
