Publish a finished report as a page a named set of people can read and ask questions about. Covers gathering recipients and a cap, building the one archive the reading room expects, the size discipline for a large bundle, and the mint-then-upload-then-share…

Answer questions about a published report from the analysis bundle mounted in this session. Covers unpacking the bundle, tracing a number back to its source table, model or raw data, refitting a model on request, and rebuilding and re-uploading the report.…

Mutate data without destroying the evidence — dedup, dtype coercion, missing-value decisions, outlier flagging, category and unit normalisation, joins, pivots and aggregations to a new grain, and columns the source does not contain — appending a row to…

Load whatever the request points at — one CSV or Excel export, twelve related tables, a folder of 500 emails, a 4 GB log you never load, a warehouse table you query in place — and record every source in run/manifest.json with the grain one row represents, the…

Decide whether data is fit to analyze before anyone analyzes it. A phase-1 pass runs in seconds — dtypes, the grain one row claims to represent, referential gaps between tables, plausibility ranges, coverage — and emits run/validation.json with a…

Create, evaluate, and triage GitHub issues for CausalPy. Use when filing a bug, proposing an enhancement, analyzing existing issues, or splitting large work into parent-child sub-issues.

Bring a pull request to green by syncing with main, resolving conflicts safely, and fixing failing checks with CausalPy conventions.

Choose the appropriate CausalPy experiment class from a causal or impact question, data structure, treatment assignment, and identification assumptions. Use before writing analysis code when the method is not yet settled, including plain-English questions…

Explore unfamiliar APIs, libraries, or implementation behavior with minimal reproducible examples and documented findings. Use when implementation details are unclear and can be resolved by reading docs, inspecting code, and running focused experiments.

Detect, configure, and use a conda-compatible tool. Use before tasks that need the project environment, such as importing project code, running tests, building docs, or invoking repo tooling.

Perform structured research and turn findings into an implementation plan.

Bayesian path analysis (observed-variable SEM) in PyMC. Compiles a lavaan-inspired formula DSL into a generative PyMC model, then layers introspection, identification diagnostics, the `do()` operator, and causal estimands (ATE/CATE/ATT/ATU/prob) on top. Use…

Review the changes since a fixed point (commit, branch, tag, or merge-base) along two axes — Standards (does the code follow this repo's documented coding standards?) and Spec (does the code match what the originating issue/spec asked for?). Runs both reviews…

Configure this repo for the engineering skills — set up its issue tracker, triage label vocabulary, and domain doc layout. Run once before first use of the other engineering skills.

Test-driven development. Use when the user wants to build features or fix bugs test-first, mentions "red-green-refactor", or wants integration tests.

Turn the current conversation into a spec and publish it to the project issue tracker — no interview, just synthesis of what you've already discussed.

State-aware orchestrator for enhancements and features. Detects where work left off (spec, implement, review) and advances it one phase. Delegates to grill-with-docs, to-spec, implement, tdd, and code-review internally — the user invokes only this skill. Use…
