"grad-case-study"

"grad-case-study" is a skill for Claude Code from charlieviettq/awesome-agent-skill. It costs 97 tokens per session (1,128 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of grad-case-study, MIT.

A case-study research method for investigating how and why something happens in its real-world setting. It supports one or several cases and compares evidence from different sources, called triangulation.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to choose a case-study design, define what to examine, and study contemporary events in depth.
Why use it?
It gives structure to investigations where the surrounding context matters and the researcher cannot control events.

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

"grad-case-study" 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 9d 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.

Case Study Research (Yin)

Overview

Case study research is an empirical inquiry that investigates a contemporary phenomenon in depth and within its real-life context, especially when the boundaries between phenomenon and context are not clearly evident. Yin's framework provides systematic design choices — single vs. multiple cases, holistic vs. embedded analysis — and emphasizes triangulation to strengthen construct validity.

When to Use

  • Research questions are "how" or "why" questions about contemporary events
  • The researcher has little or no control over behavioral events
  • Contextual conditions are highly pertinent to the phenomenon of study
  • Boundaries between phenomenon and context are blurred

When NOT to Use

  • When frequency or incidence data is needed (use survey or experiment)
  • When context is irrelevant and can be controlled (use experiment)
  • When the goal is statistical generalization to a population

Assumptions

IRON LAW: Case study answers HOW and WHY questions in context — if you
need frequency or incidence data, use a survey or experiment instead.
Applying case study to "how many" or "how much" questions misuses the
methodology.

Key assumptions:

  1. The case is a bounded system — define temporal, spatial, and conceptual boundaries
  2. Multiple sources of evidence are essential for construct validity
  3. Multiple cases follow replication logic (not sampling logic) — each case is an experiment, not a survey respondent
  4. A case study protocol and database enhance reliability

Methodology

Step 1: Design the Case Study

Define the research question (how/why). Select the case type using Yin's 2x2 matrix:

Single Case Multiple Case
Holistic (single unit) Critical, unique, or revelatory case Literal or theoretical replication
Embedded (multiple units) Multiple units within one case Multiple units across cases

Develop propositions to guide data collection.

Step 2: Collect Evidence from Multiple Sources
