grounded-coding

grounded-coding is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from yipng05-max/-skills. It costs 230 tokens per session (7,013 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A structured method for analyzing interviews and other qualitative research material using grounded theory, a research approach that builds concepts from the data. It includes open coding, grouping observations into categories, and later connecting categories into a broader explanation.

In plain words
What is it for?
Coding interviews in stages, recording each interview’s results as Markdown, adapting to a researcher’s example coding style, comparing later interviews with earlier categories, and optionally producing a combined Excel summary.
Why use it?
Large interview transcripts are difficult to analyze consistently by reading them informally. The method creates a traceable process for labeling passages, comparing interviews, and developing themes.

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

grounded-coding 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 1mo ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/export_coding.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.

程序化扎根理论编码

对访谈记录或其他质性资料进行系统化的扎根理论编码分析。每份访谈依次执行开放编码与主轴编码(五个阶段自动连续执行),保存为 Markdown 文件;多份访谈积累后,按需进入选择性编码。

启动:获取基本信息

当用户触发此skill时,首先获取以下信息(如用户未提供,则主动询问):

  1. 质性资料路径:用户上传或提供的访谈记录/质性资料的本地文件路径(支持PDF、Word、TXT等格式)
  2. 研究领域:用户所在的研究领域(如教育学、管理学、社会学等)
  3. 研究主题:用户正在研究的具体主题
  4. 被访者信息:被访谈者的身份描述(如"某小学教师"、"创业者A"等)
  5. 研究议题焦点(可选):用户特别关注的研究议题或分析重点
  6. 访谈序号与既有编码表(持续比较关键信息):
    • 这是你研究中的第几份访谈?(第一份 / 第N份)
    • 如果是第二份及以后:之前访谈的累积编码表是否可以提供? 请提供文件路径,或直接粘贴类属列表,格式如下:
      类属1:[类属名称]
        包含编码:编码A, 编码B, ...
        属性1:[名称](维度:[极端A] ←→ [极端B])
        属性2:[名称](维度:[极端C] ←→ [极端D])
      类属2:...
      
    • 如果是第一份访谈,直接开始全新建构。

如果用户在触发时已经提供了部分信息(如直接给出文件路径和研究主题),不要重复询问已知信息,只补充缺失的必要信息。

收到基本信息、读取质性资料全文后,在进入编码之前,询问研究者是否希望提供示范编码:

"在正式编码前,你可以选择: A. 研究者示范:你先对文本中任意一小段(3–5 个句群)做示范编码,AI 会识别你的编码风格,然后按你的风格完成后续开放编码 B. AI 直接编码:跳过示范,AI 按照标准原则直接开始

哪种方式?(选 B 或不回应则直接开始)"

若研究者选择 A(研究者示范):

  1. 请研究者提供示范片段及其对应编码(格式:S1 "原文" → 编码标签)
  2. AI 分析示范编码的风格特征,明确说明:
    • 动名词使用程度:高度动名词化,还是更多名词短语?
    • 抽象层次:贴近原文(描述性),还是已有一定理论提炼?
    • 粒度:每个句群一个编码,还是允许多个?
    • 用词风格:倾向本土化表达,还是理论术语?
  3. 输出风格确认:

    "我理解你的编码风格是:[描述]。我将按照此风格完成后续开放编码。如有偏差,请随时纠正。"

  4. 按研究者风格继续执行五阶段流程

若研究者选择 B 或未回应:

直接进入五阶段,按标准原则编码。

执行流程(五阶段连续执行)

第一阶段:整体主题概览

阅读完全部质性资料后,提炼出几个大的主题方向,为后续微分析提供全局视野。

输出格式:

  • 列出3-6个大的主题,每个主题附简要说明(1-2句话)
  • 说明各主题在资料中的大致分布和权重

这一步的目的是让研究者在进入逐句编码之前,先对资料有一个整体认知框架。就像阅读一本书之前先浏览目录,整体主题概览帮助研究者明确后续微分析的方向和重点。

第二阶段:开放编码

开放编码是扎根理论的基础阶段,目标是从原始资料中逐步建构概念。包含三个连续步骤,对应从具体到抽象的逐步提升:

  1. 识别事件:逐项识别资料中的事项、事情、事务,进行命名(抽象层次较低)
  2. 提炼类属:对具体事件进行分类合并,形成概念(抽象层次较高)
  3. 分析类属:定义类属内容,分析特征,进行属性与维度分类
步骤一:识别事件(逐句微分析)

针对质性资料进行逐句微分析,逐项识别出资料中的事项、事情、事务,进行命名。这一步的抽象层次较低,紧贴原始资料——回答的是"这里发生了什么"。

编码原则:

  1. 逐句编码——按句群进行,不遗漏任何语句。只有纯粹的单词应答(独立成句,如仅有"嗯"、"对"、"好的")可以跳过,且必须在编码结果中标注"已跳过"。其余所有语句,无论看起来信息量多少,都必须给出编码。某句话是否重要,是研究者的判断权,不是 AI 的判断权;当不确定时,给出描述性编码(如"重复前述观点""表达不确定"),而不是跳过
  2. 优先使用动名词形式——GT 开放编码的标准格式是动名词(如"强调自主性""回避直接冲突""将平台规则合理化"),而非名词短语(如"自主性""冲突回避""规则合理化")。动名词保留了行动感和过程性,符合 GT 追问"正在发生什么"的分析取向。编码应简洁,通常 4–8 字,不宜过长
  3. 每个句群给出一个最合适的编码——同一个编码可以在不同句群重复出现(这说明该现象反复被提及)
  4. 紧扣研究议题——编码时重点关注与用户研究主题和研究议题相关的内容
  5. 禁止对仗整齐——编码标签的字数和句法结构应由数据内容决定,而非由输出形式决定。如果检查发现大多数编码字数相近、结构相同(如全部是四字动名词短语),说明在优化形式而非忠实于数据,必须主动打破这种整齐感。有些编码天然更长,有些更短,有些是受访者原话的动名词化,有些是描述性的过程短句,形态多样才符合 GT 的细粒度要求
