Executes causal analysis on existing data. This skill owns model setup, treatment-effect estimation, counterfactual comparison, robustness checks, and interpretation of fitted causal results.
Performing Causal Analysis is a community-contributed Claude Code skill in the math-stats sub-category. It ships as a SKILL.md file that Claude Code auto-discovers under ~/.claude/skills/performing-causal-analysis/ and loads when your prompt matches the skill's trigger.
When to invoke it: Use when fitting or interpreting DiD, ITS, synthetic control, regression discontinuity, or other treatment-effect analyses, including robustness checks and counterfactual plots. For choosing a study design before analysis, use designing-experiments instead.
The Performing Causal Analysis Claude Code skill is built for researchers, data scientists, academics, and analysts working with complex data and scientific literature. It's part of ClaudSkills (also referred to as Claude Skills or Claude Code Skills) — the open community-curated registry of 69,000+ SKILL.md files for Anthropic's Claude Code agent and the wider Claude ecosystem (Claude API, Claude Agent SDK).
