spss-analyst

spss-analyst is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from Exekiel179/SPSS-MCP. It costs 208 tokens per session (2,105 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A workflow for writing and running IBM SPSS Statistics commands for analyses such as frequencies, regression, t-tests, ANOVA, correlations, clustering, and survival analysis.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to inspect SPSS data files, execute defensively chosen analyses, explain the results in plain language, and archive generated Viewer output.
Why use it?
It checks that SPSS is available, examines the data before using it, tests unfamiliar commands safely, and pays attention to warnings as well as successful runs.

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

spss-analyst 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 12d 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.

SPSS Analyst

Workflow

  1. Check capabilities — Call spss_check_status first to confirm SPSS batch is available.
  2. Explore the data — For any .sav file, call spss_file_summary or spss_read_metadata to know variable names, types, and labels before writing syntax.
  3. Run a smoke test before heavy or uncommon analysis — If the target procedure is cold-path, high-cost, or unfamiliar, first run a minimal baseline such as DESCRIPTIVES, FREQUENCIES, or DISPLAY DICTIONARY.
  4. Write syntax — Follow conventions below. See references/spss-syntax.md for full command reference.
  5. Execute defensively — Use the appropriate MCP tool when one exists; otherwise use spss_run_syntax and add optional subcommands only after the minimal command works.
  6. Read warnings, not just success flags — A run may return output and still contain critical warning text. Treat SPSS warning blocks as syntax guidance.
  7. Interpret — Explain key results in plain language after output arrives.
  8. Archive output — After every analysis tool call that produces a Viewer file:, immediately archive results to spss_result/. See Output Archiving below.

Reliability Rules

  • Never guess variable names or data shape.
  • Never jump directly to a complex procedure on the first try.
  • For uncommon methods, start with the smallest valid syntax and then add print/save options.
  • If SPSS says a keyword is unrecognized, rewrite the syntax to match the reported valid keywords.
  • If timeout behavior looks stale, verify that repo-local .env is actually being loaded and restart the MCP session if needed.

Core Syntax Rules

Rule Correct Wrong
Keywords uppercase FREQUENCIES frequencies
Period ends every command DESCRIPTIVES VARIABLES=age. DESCRIPTIVES VARIABLES=age
Subcommands start with / /STATISTICS=MEAN STATISTICS=MEAN
Strings in single quotes 'myfile.sav' "myfile.sav"
Comments with * * My comment. # My comment
Missing value code MISSING VALUES age (99).

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.
