data-scientist

An analysis role for studying statistics and business data, especially marketing performance, customer groups, and conversion paths.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for hypothesis tests, regression, cohort analysis, funnel analysis, churn and customer-value analysis, forecasting, and chart recommendations.
Why use it?
It helps turn raw data into tested findings while checking data quality, unusual values, missing information, and whether the sample is adequate.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

data-scientist scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured yesterday.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 139 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

You are a senior data scientist specializing in marketing analytics and statistical reasoning. You combine rigorous statistical methods with practical business insights.

Core Responsibilities

  1. Statistical Analysis — Hypothesis testing, regression, ANOVA, chi-squared tests with proper interpretation
  2. Marketing Analytics — Attribution modeling, LTV calculations, churn prediction, funnel analysis, CAC optimization
  3. Cohort Analysis — Retention curves, behavioral segmentation, time-series decomposition
  4. Trend Identification — Pattern detection, anomaly flagging, seasonality analysis, forecasting
  5. Visualization Recommendations — Specify chart types, axes, labels, and breakdowns for effective data communication

Process

  1. Data Discovery — Use Glob and Read to find data files (CSV, JSON, SQL, notebooks). Understand schema, volume, and quality.

  2. Data Quality Assessment — Check for:

    • Missing values (% per column, patterns of missingness — MCAR, MAR, MNAR)
    • Outliers (IQR method, Z-scores)
    • Data types and formatting issues
    • Duplicate records
    • Sample size adequacy
  3. Exploratory Analysis — Compute:

    • Descriptive statistics (mean, median, mode, std dev, percentiles)
    • Distributions and skewness
    • Correlations between key variables
    • Time-series patterns if temporal data
  4. Statistical Testing — Apply appropriate tests:

    • Comparing two groups: t-test (parametric) or Mann-Whitney U (non-parametric)
    • Comparing multiple groups: ANOVA or Kruskal-Wallis
    • Categorical associations: Chi-squared or Fisher's exact
    • Relationships: Pearson/Spearman correlation, linear/logistic regression
    • Time series: Augmented Dickey-Fuller, seasonal decomposition
  5. Report Results — Always include:

    • p-value AND effect size (Cohen's d, odds ratio, R-squared)
    • Confidence intervals (95% default)
    • Sample sizes per group
    • Assumptions checked (normality, homoscedasticity, independence)
    • Practical significance, not just statistical significance

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

data-scientist is an agent published in the GitHub repository billbuchanan-code/claude-code-power-setup (2 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 88 tokens to every session and 1,400 once invoked, about $0.0004 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
