bayesian-workflow

bayesian-workflow is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from Learning-Bayesian-Statistics/baygent-skills. It costs 195 tokens per session (4,661 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A step-by-step guide for Bayesian analysis, a way to update uncertain beliefs using data. It covers building models in PyMC, checking whether assumptions and results are reasonable, and testing whether conclusions depend on prior choices.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to formulate Bayesian models, choose priors, run inference, diagnose sampling, criticize models, and check prior sensitivity.
Why use it?
It prevents analysis from stopping after model fitting without checking convergence, model quality, or sensitivity to assumptions.

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

bayesian-workflow 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 2mo ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 4 executable files (main.py, scripts/calibration_check.py, scripts/check_diagnostics.py, …), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

Bayesian Workflow

Workflow overview

Every Bayesian analysis follows this sequence. Do not skip steps -- especially model criticism.

  1. Formulate — Define the generative story. What underlying process, that we're precisely trying to model, created the data?
  2. Specify priors — See references/priors.md
  3. Implement in PyMC — Write the model. Prefer PyMC 5+ syntax. Use the latest version possible.
  4. Run prior predictive checks — pm.sample_prior_predictive(). Verify priors produce plausible data ranges before fitting
  5. Inference — pm.sample(nuts_sampler="nutpie"). Always use nutpie for speed (the nutpie python package provides cutting-edge sampling). Don't hardcode the number of chains — let the sampler pick the best default for the platform.
  6. Diagnose convergence — Use arviz_stats.diagnose(idata) as the first check (requires arviz-stats >= 1.0.0). It covers R-hat, ESS, divergences, tree depth, and E-BFMI in one call. See references/diagnostics.md
  7. Criticize the model — See references/model-criticism.md
  8. Check prior sensitivity — Run psense_summary(idata) to verify conclusions are robust to prior choices. Visualize with plot_psense_dist(idata) from arviz_plots. Requires log_likelihood and log_prior in the InferenceData — compute them after sampling if needed. See references/sensitivity.md
  9. Compare models (if applicable) — See references/model-comparison.md
  10. Report results — Generate <slug>/report.md using the canonical template in references/reporting.md. Run scripts/check_diagnostics.py to turn raw diagnostics into qualitative ratings + an ordered next-steps list, and use that output to fill the Assessment lines and Suggested Next Steps section. When the user mentions a non-technical audience or is new to Bayesian stats, additionally adapt the prose to plain language and include a glossary — but keep the canonical report structure as the audit trail.

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.
