Identification Proofs
This skill covers formal identification arguments and proofs in structural and reduced-form econometrics. Use when the user needs to prove or formalize that a parameter is identified — including writing identification propositions, stating regularity conditions, deriving rank conditions, or showing observational equivalence fails. Triggers on "identification proof", "identification argument", "identify the parameter", "show identification", "identification condition", "exclusion restriction proof", "rank condition", "order condition", "identification strategy formal", "nonparametric identification", "parametric identification", "local identification", "global identification", "observational equivalence", "identification at infinity", "completeness condition", "regularity conditions", "Rothenberg", "proof of identification", "identification result", "identified parameter", "point identified", "set identified", "partial identification".

From the source SKILL.md
Reference for writing formal and informal identification arguments: from stating the target parameter precisely, through deriving the identification result, to connecting it to a feasible estimator.
What this skill does
Identification Proofs is a community-contributed Claude Code skill in the general-misc sub-category. It ships as a SKILL.md file that Claude Code auto-discovers under ~/.claude/skills/identification-proofs/ and loads when your prompt matches the skill's trigger.

Is this skill free to install?
Yes. ClaudSkills is an open registry — every skill keeps its source repository's license, and manual install via copy is free. ClaudSkills Pro ($9/mo, $79/yr, or $149 one-time) adds one-click install via the desktop app and a multi-signal Quality Score.
When should I use the Identification Proofs skill?
Use Identification Proofs when your Claude Code task falls under the General category — specifically in the general misc area. Claude Code auto-discovers installed skills and invokes the right one based on the task description, so you can also ask Claude directly (e.g. "use Identification Proofs" or describe the task and let Claude pick). Browse related skills at
/category/general/.
What is a Claude Code skill and how does the Identification Proofs skill fit in?
A Claude Code skill is a
SKILL.md file that lives under
~/.claude/skills/<name>/ and tells the Claude Code CLI agent how to perform a specific task (instructions, prompts, allowed tools). Skills are auto-discovered at session start. Identification Proofs is one of 67,000+ skills indexed in the open ClaudSkills catalog, classified under the General category. Learn more at
/learn/what-is-a-claude-skill/.
