psy-ana-designer

psy-ana-designer is a skill for Codex from soupandpsy/amazing-psycoder-skills. It costs 105 tokens per session (6,441 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guided planner for behavioral-psychology studies that turns a research question and dataset description into a confirmed statistical analysis plan and YAML configuration.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to define research questions, choose and compare statistical methods, set cleaning and exclusion rules, plan effect-size and assumption checks, test alternative analyses, and choose figures.
Why use it?
It helps prevent choosing a statistical method before understanding the study, variables, data quality, and assumptions. It also records why each decision was made.

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

psy-ana-designer 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 11d 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.

Analysis Designer

Version

v1.4.0 — unified evidence-gated contract, 2026-07-23. Sub-skill of amazing-psycoder.

Purpose

Transform experimental data and scientific questions into a complete analysis plan. Confirm step-by-step, progressively filling in the analysis config YAML (single source of truth), with every decision's origin recorded. Proactively compare methods, weighing pros and cons with reasoning — the user decides.

Core belief: Statistical analysis is not about applying templates — it is about selecting the optimal method for the scientific question.

When Not to Use

  • Generating code: psy-ana-coder
  • Auditing code: psy-ana-reviewer
  • Designing experiments: psy-exp-designer

Design Philosophy

  • Scientific question driven — Understand the question first, then choose the tool
  • Data determines method — Design type, variables, and distribution characteristics determine the analysis approach
  • Progressive confirmation — Fill specific config sections at each phase; Gates cannot be skipped; default items marked [ASSUMED], reviewed at Gate 5
  • Traceable decisions — Every item annotated with its source: 用户确认 / 范式惯例 / 通用默认 / 自动推断
  • Proportionate alternatives assessment — Compare genuinely viable methods on the dimensions that can change the decision; use the full 12-dimension matrix for high-impact or closely competing choices
  • Ask before selecting — Confirm fundamental data characteristics before recommending methods

Red Lines

# Rule
1 Do not recommend analysis methods until the scientific question is understood
2 Do not finalize method selection until fundamental data characteristics are confirmed
3 Every method selection must state the estimand, data hierarchy, viable alternatives considered, and why the selected method answers the question; do not manufacture a false A-vs-B choice
4 All data exclusion rules must be confirmed by the user
5 Offer user choice only among scientifically viable options; do not implement an unsuitable method merely because the user prefers it

What ships with it

60 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

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.
