What this skill can do

Install

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

if [ -e ~/.agents/skills/'dowhy' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'dowhy' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named dowhy already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/brycewang-stanford/Auto-Empirical-Research-Skills' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet '8684584e7d1127940f018157d2c579974fae8f79' -- 'skills/63-tondevrel-scientific-agent-skills/dowhy' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'skills/63-tondevrel-scientific-agent-skills/dowhy' ~/.agents/skills/'dowhy' && rm -rf "$d"; fi

For Claude Code: ln -s ~/.agents/skills/'dowhy' ~/.claude/skills/'dowhy' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
