Extract atomic insights from raw source material. Takes articles, transcripts, meeting notes, or any unstructured input and produces structured claims with provenance metadata. The foundational extraction step of the 6R processing pipeline. Triggers on: "extract", "reduce", "distill", "summarize source"
Systematic market analysis skill for understanding market size, segmentation, trends, and opportunities. Produces quantified market intelligence.
Statistical modeling: OLS/WLS/GLS, GLM (logit, probit, Poisson), time series (ARIMA, VAR), mixed effects, diagnostics. Formula API. Use for regressions without fixed effects, GLMs, or time series. For FE/DiD use pyfixest; panel/IV use linearmodels.
Statistical analysis, outlier detection, and data transformation utilities.
This skill should be used when scientists need help with research problem selection, project ideation, troubleshooting stuck projects, or strategic scientific decisions. Use this skill when users ask to pitch a new research idea, work through a project problem, evaluate project risks, plan research strategy, navigate decision trees, or get help choosing what scientific problem to work on. Typical requests include "I have an idea for a project", "I'm stuck on my research", "help me evaluate this project", "what should I work on", or "I need strategic advice about my research".
Comprehensive collection of 128+ ready-to-use scientific skills for Claude enabling research across biology, chemistry, medicine, genomics, and advanced analysis domains.
