Economic research involves complex, repetitive workflows—from data cleaning in Stata to writing LaTeX papers. AI skills automate these workflows while preserving methodological rigor.

Skills help you:

• 📊 Clean and transform data faster (Stata, R, Python)
• 📐 Write mathematical models in LaTeX
• 🔬 Run econometric analyses with proper diagnostics
• 📝 Draft papers following journal conventions
• 🎯 Create publication-quality visualizations

Skills work with multiple AI coding assistants:

# Clone a skill to your tools directory
# Example for Claude Code:
mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills
cp -r skills/analysis/r-econometrics ~/.claude/skills/

Invoke skills via slash commands or natural language:

/r-econometrics Run a DiD analysis on my treatment data

Skills are organized by research workflow stage:

• research-ideation - Generate research questions from economic phenomena

• lit-review-assistant - Search, summarize, and synthesize papers

• latex-econ-model - Write economic models in LaTeX
• general-equilibrium-model-builder - Build and solve Walrasian GE models in Julia
• game-theory-solver - Solve and visualize game theory problems

• stata-data-cleaning - Clean and transform data in Stata
• api-data-fetcher - Fetch data from economic APIs (FRED, World Bank)

• r-econometrics - Run IV, DiD, RDD in R
• python-panel-data - Panel data analysis with Python
• stata-regression - Regression analysis in Stata

• academic-paper-writer - Draft papers with proper structure
• latex-tables - Generate publication-ready LaTeX tables
• referee-response - Draft referee report responses

• beamer-presentation - Create Beamer slides
• econ-visualization - Publication-quality charts
• research-website - Build academic project websites
