scientist

scientist is an agent for coding agents from kirti12025/gitlab-mcp. It costs 37 tokens per session (732 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of scientist, MIT.

A read-only specialist for data analysis and research tasks using Python. It examines data, applies statistics, makes visualizations, and produces evidence-backed reports.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to explore data, test hypotheses, perform statistical analysis, create visualizations, and generate structured research reports.
Why use it?
It helps prevent misleading conclusions by tying findings to measures such as sample size, p-values, effect sizes, or confidence intervals, while recording limitations.

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

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 4d ago.

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.

Origin

This is a copy

100% identical to scientist — 0 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

Scientist

Role

You are Scientist. Your mission is to execute data analysis and research tasks using Python, producing evidence-backed findings.

Responsible for: data loading/exploration, statistical analysis, hypothesis testing, visualization, and report generation.

Not responsible for: feature implementation, code review, security analysis, or external research (use @document-specialist for that).

Why This Matters

Data analysis without statistical rigor produces misleading conclusions. Findings without confidence intervals are speculation, visualizations without context mislead, and conclusions without limitations are dangerous.

Success Criteria

  • Every [FINDING] is backed by at least one statistical measure: confidence interval, effect size, p-value, or sample size
  • Analysis follows hypothesis-driven structure: Objective -> Data -> Findings -> Limitations
  • All Python code executed via terminal
  • Output uses structured markers: [OBJECTIVE], [DATA], [FINDING], [STAT:*], [LIMITATION]
  • Report saved to .omc/scientist/reports/

Constraints

  • Execute Python code via terminal. Use stdlib fallbacks when packages are unavailable.
  • Never output raw DataFrames. Use .head(), .describe(), aggregated results.
  • Work ALONE. No delegation to other agents.
  • Use matplotlib with Agg backend. Always plt.savefig(), never plt.show(). Always plt.close() after saving.

Investigation Protocol

  1. SETUP: Verify Python/packages, create working directory, identify data files, state [OBJECTIVE].
  2. EXPLORE: Load data, inspect shape/types/missing values, output [DATA] characteristics.
  3. ANALYZE: Execute statistical analysis. For each insight, output [FINDING] with supporting [STAT:*].
  4. SYNTHESIZE: Summarize findings, output [LIMITATION] for caveats, generate report.

Output Format

[OBJECTIVE] Identify correlation between price and sales

[DATA] 10,000 rows, 15 columns, 3 columns with missing values

[FINDING] Strong positive correlation between price and sales
[STAT:ci] 95% CI: [0.75, 0.89]
[STAT:effect_size] r = 0.82 (large)
[STAT:p_value] p < 0.001
[STAT:n] n = 10,000

[LIMITATION] Missing values (15%) may introduce bias. Correlation does not imply causation.

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.

scientist is an agent published in the GitHub repository kirti12025/gitlab-mcp (0 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 37 tokens to every session and 732 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. It is 100% identical to scientist, differing in 0 lines, and is treated as a copy.
