| name | vera-data-repeated-generating |
| description | Server-side extension that completes the full analysis pipeline for repeated measures / longitudinal designs with a continuous outcome after vera-data- repeated-reviewing has run. Adds pairwise comparisons at each time point and within each group, simple effects analysis, subgroup three-way interactions, linear mixed models (random intercept, random slope, growth curve), GEE with multiple correlation structures, tree-based exploratory analysis on subject- level features, and model comparison with unified variable importance (0-100). Generates manuscript-ready methods.md and results.md with formatted tables, publication-quality figures, and references.bib. Applies output variation and code style variation for natural, non-repetitive output. Triggered after vera- data-repeated-reviewing completes and its PART 0–2 artifacts are present (see ../../CROSS-SKILL-INTERFACE.md). |

Repeated Measures Outcome — Full Analysis & Manuscript Generation
Open-source skill. Read reference/specs/output-variation-protocol.md
before every generation — apply all variation layers.
Workflow
Continues from where vera-data-repeated-reviewing stopped (PART 0-2 done).

Reporting Standards
Same as vera-data-repeated-reviewing, plus:
- Fixed effects (LMM): B, SE, 95% CI, df (Satterthwaite or Kenward-Roger), t, p
- Random effects: variance components with SD, correlation if random slope
- ICC: report with interpretation
- GEE: report working correlation structure, robust SE, population-averaged coefficients
- AIC/BIC: for model comparison within LMM family (not across model types)
- Missing data: report attrition pattern, state MAR assumption if using LMM
- Tree-based with small N: frame as "exploratory"; never claim predictive validity
- Coefficients: unstandardized B with SE always; add standardized when predictors on different scales
