stata-accounting-research is a skill in brycewang-stanford/Auto-Empirical-Research-Skills, last changed 2 Apr 2026. It can name web addresses.
STATA code pattern library for empirical archival accounting research. Provides tested syntax from 126 peer-reviewed JAR (Journal of Accounting Research) replication files (2017-2025). Use when the user asks procedural questions like "How do I implement [method]?" or "Show me code for [technique]" — including: entropy balancing, propensity score matching (PSM), difference-in-differences (DiD), regression discontinuity (RDD), instrumental variables (IV), event studies (CAR/BHAR), survival analysis, Fama-MacBeth regressions, bootstrap, quantile regression, reghdfe/xtreg/areg, clustering standard errors, fixed effects, esttab/outreg2 table formatting, winsorization, leads/lags. Users can specify their variables (e.g., treatment, outcomes, controls) and receive adapted syntax. NOTE: This skill provides code patterns from published papers, not research design advice.

From the files and frontmatter at commit bfa0a6e. This is how much a skill can do, not whether it is risky.
Pattern check
Pattern check: 6 items to review · commit bfa0a6e · 3 Nov 2026
We checked every text file in this skill, at commit bfa0a6e on 3 Nov 2026, against 45 published patterns such as download-and-run commands, hidden text and credential access. We don't run the skill, we don't read the web pages it points to, and we can't judge everything its instructions might lead an agent to do. In published tests, pattern checks like this one missed most malicious skills. Read the skill before you install it — especially anything it asks you to download or run.

Format check
Each agent reads SKILL.md a little differently. We check the file against each one's published rules; we don't run the skill in any agent.
Agent Skills specFails
The open format from agentskills.io, held to the strictest version of each rule among the agents we check.
- Error
The name "stata-accounting-research" doesn't match its folder "18-jusi-aalto-stata-accounting-research". The spec requires them to match. N4
Fix: Set name: 18-jusi-aalto-stata-accounting-research, or rename the folder to stata-accounting-research.
- Warning
Links to files that aren't in the skill folder: line 48: [Issue]. B3
Fix: Add the missing files or correct the paths, relative to SKILL.md.
- Note
There is no license field, so readers can't tell whether they may reuse the skill. O2
Fix: Add license: with an SPDX name such as MIT or Apache-2.0, or the name of a bundled licence file.
- Error
Claude CodePasses with warnings
Claude Code reads its own extra fields, ignores unknown ones, and still loads a skill whose frontmatter is broken, without its fields.
- Warning
Links to files that aren't in the skill folder: line 48: [Issue]. B3
Fix: Add the missing files or correct the paths, relative to SKILL.md.
- Note
The name "stata-accounting-research" doesn't match its folder "18-jusi-aalto-stata-accounting-research". Claude Code shows the skill as /stata-accounting-research, and the folder name also invokes it. N4
Fix: Set name: 18-jusi-aalto-stata-accounting-research, or rename the folder to stata-accounting-research.
- Warning
Claude apps & API uploadFails
Uploading to claude.ai or the Claude API, or packaging with Anthropic's script, accepts only the six spec fields and stops on anything else.
- Error
The name "stata-accounting-research" doesn't match its folder "18-jusi-aalto-stata-accounting-research". claude.ai refuses an upload whose folder name doesn't match the skill name. N4
Fix: Set name: 18-jusi-aalto-stata-accounting-research, or rename the folder to stata-accounting-research.
- Warning
Links to files that aren't in the skill folder: line 48: [Issue]. B3
Fix: Add the missing files or correct the paths, relative to SKILL.md.
- Note
The description is 874 characters. The claude.ai Help Center says 200 at most, though Anthropic's API docs and validator allow 1,024. D4
Fix: If the claude.ai upload refuses it, trim the description to 200 characters.
- Error
OpenAI (Codex & API)Passes with warnings
Codex finds SKILL.md by its exact name and needs a description; OpenAI's Skills API checks the frontmatter against the spec and caps uploads.
- Warning
The name "stata-accounting-research" doesn't match its folder "18-jusi-aalto-stata-accounting-research". OpenAI's own upload example uses a differently named folder, but the spec it follows says they must match. N4
Fix: Set name: 18-jusi-aalto-stata-accounting-research, or rename the folder to stata-accounting-research.
- Warning
Links to files that aren't in the skill folder: line 48: [Issue]. B3
Fix: Add the missing files or correct the paths, relative to SKILL.md.
- Warning
VS Code & CopilotPasses with warnings
VS Code reads skills one folder below .github/skills, .claude/skills or .agents/skills and falls back to the folder name when the name is missing or differs; GitHub's Copilot docs require the exact name SKILL.md.
- Warning
The name "stata-accounting-research" doesn't match its folder "18-jusi-aalto-stata-accounting-research". VS Code uses the folder name, 18-jusi-aalto-stata-accounting-research, instead. N4
Fix: Set name: 18-jusi-aalto-stata-accounting-research, or rename the folder to stata-accounting-research.
- Warning
Links to files that aren't in the skill folder: line 48: [Issue]. B3
Fix: Add the missing files or correct the paths, relative to SKILL.md.
- Warning
