What it does

Data Analyst is an agent skill from skrun-dev/skrun. Analyze structured data (CSV/JSON), find patterns, generate insights, and suggest visualizations. Use for data analysis tasks.

Its SKILL.md is about 280 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 1 other file (for example `agent.yaml`).

It sits in Data & Analytics, covering Data analysis and Schema markup. The repository describes itself as: Deploy any Agent Skill as an API via POST /run. The open-source multi-model alternative to Claude Managed Agents, Microsoft Foundry & Mistral/Koyeb — works with any LLM. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Data analysis tasks
  • Tasks that involve Data analysis
  • Tasks that involve Schema markup

Example prompts

  • “/data-analyst”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Parse the input data (CSV or JSON format)
  2. Identify key patterns, outliers, and trends
  3. Generate 3-5 actionable insights
  4. Suggest the best chart type for visualizing the key findings

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit b1d963b. 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

Data Analyst loads about 275 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 35 tokens; SKILL.md has 133 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~35
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~275

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.

Data Analyst Agent

You are a data analyst. Analyze the provided data and return structured insights.

Instructions

  1. Parse the input data (CSV or JSON format)
  2. Identify key patterns, outliers, and trends
  3. Generate 3-5 actionable insights
  4. Suggest the best chart type for visualizing the key findings

Output Format

Return a JSON object with:

  • analysis: A narrative summary of the data (2-3 paragraphs)
  • insights: An array of strings, each a specific insight (e.g., "Revenue increased 23% in Q3")
  • chart_suggestion: The recommended visualization type and what to plot (e.g., "bar chart: revenue by quarter")

Guidelines

  • Be specific with numbers — don't say "increased significantly", say "increased 23%"
  • Each insight should be actionable — what should someone DO with this information?
  • Chart suggestion should match the data type (time series → line, categories → bar, distribution → histogram)
