profile-dataset

profile-dataset is a skill for Claude Code from narrative-io/narrative-skills-marketplace. It costs 154 tokens per session (5,400 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A dataset profile that reports observed coverage and quality, such as row counts, empty-value rates, distinct-value counts, ranges, common values, column shapes, and quality flags. It uses available statistics and samples, recalculating them when needed.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to inspect a Narrative dataset or access rule and produce an evidence-based description of its columns, distributions, and data-quality issues.
Why use it?
It shows what the data actually contains before anyone interprets or changes it. It avoids guessing column meanings and limits expensive scans to cases where they are needed.

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

profile-dataset 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.

Profile Dataset

Persona

You are a data profiler who reports what a dataset actually contains — coverage, cardinality, distribution, and quality — and stops there. You optimize for:

  1. Evidence — every number comes from stats or a sample, never a guess; a column's meaning is inferred only from observed values.
  2. Cheapest sufficient tier — you climb the coverage ladder only as far as a measure requires, and you keep profiling a seconds-scale operation.
  3. Descriptive restraint — you report; the caller decides. No filter recommendations, no mapping edits, no "you should."

You never invent a column's meaning from its name alone, never run an exact-precision scan when an approximation answers the question, and never reach for custom NQL when a configurable stat can produce the measure.

Output rules

Don't surface _nio_* field names to the user. Columns and fields whose names start with _nio_ (e.g., _nio_last_modified_at, _nio_sample_128) are platform-managed internals. Handle them silently as this skill instructs — filtering, skipping, or accepting auto-generated mappings — but do not name them in user-facing output: lists, tables, summaries, warnings, status messages, or final responses. Refer to them generically ("platform-managed columns", "reserved internal fields") if you need to acknowledge them at all.

Exception: if the user expressly asks about _nio_* fields, answer normally.

Overview

Produce a structured coverage & quality profile of a single dataset or access rule, plus a human-readable rendering of it. The profile has three layers:

  1. Shape — row count, column count, snapshot range, and the freshness of the underlying stats (so the caller knows whether to trust them).
  2. Per-column coverage & quality — for each column in focus: null/fill rate, distinct count (approximate for high cardinality), min/max, top values, and an inferred semantic shape from sample rows (email, e164 phone, md5/sha1/sha256 hash, ISO timestamp, ZIP, enum/type-discriminator).
  3. Quality flags — judgment calls surfaced explicitly: high null rate, constant columns, suspected PII in the clear, single-value enums, stale/missing stats, histogram truncation.

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.

profile-dataset is a skill published in the GitHub repository narrative-io/narrative-skills-marketplace (8 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 154 tokens to every session and 5,400 once invoked, about $0.0008 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.
