Runs quantitative meta-analysis — computes effect sizes (Hedges' g / standardized mean difference, log odds/risk ratios) with their variances, pools them under fixed-effect and random-effects models, quantifies heterogeneity (I-squared, tau-squared, Cochran's Q), draws forest and funnel plots, and tests publication bias (Egger's regression, trim-and-fill) — using statsmodels.stats.meta_analysis in Python or the field-standard R metafor via Rscript.

We found nothing in the files we read that matches our rules. That does not prove the skill is safe: see the limits of static scanning.

Install

Paste this into your terminal. It downloads exactly the version we scanned, not whatever is newest.

if [ -e ~/.agents/skills/'alterlab-meta-analysis' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'alterlab-meta-analysis' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named alterlab-meta-analysis already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/AlterLab-IEU/AlterLab-Academic-Skills' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet '3ab6d034385ec4fedc3f6f4099292d4e91f60300' -- 'skills/social-science-workflow/alterlab-meta-analysis' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'skills/social-science-workflow/alterlab-meta-analysis' ~/.agents/skills/'alterlab-meta-analysis' && rm -rf "$d"; fi

Codex reads ~/.agents/skills directly. For Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Antigravity or OpenCode, also link it. For Claude Code: ln -s ~/.agents/skills/'alterlab-meta-analysis' ~/.claude/skills/'alterlab-meta-analysis' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
