3 of 9 scanners reported clean
Some scanners were skipped, did not run, or reported a non-clean status. Review each row below.
If an argument (variable name) is provided:
stata_inspect_data(action="codebook", query=<variable>) and display the codebook output.If no argument is provided:
stata_inspect_data(action="describe") — display the dataset structure (obs, vars, types, labels).stata_inspect_data(action="summary") — display descriptive statistics (N, mean, sd, min, max).If either call returns an error indicating no data in memory, tell the user to load data first (e.g., /stata-run sysuse auto, clear or stata_load_data("auto")).
tools
Show mcp-stata identity, connected tools, and status. Use when the user asks if mcp-stata is available, asks about access to the toolkit, or asks what Stata tools are connected.
tools
Activate when users mention Stata commands, .do files, regressions, econometrics, stored results, graphs, dataset inspection, replication, or Stata errors. Route the task through mcp-stata tools and the specialized research skills instead of treating it as plain text coding.
development
Build and review paper-ready regression, balance, and summary tables from Stata outputs. Use when the user needs a clean table for a draft, appendix, or coauthor share-out.
tools
Install, configure, update, or verify mcp-stata across Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI, Cursor, Windsurf, and VS Code. Activate when users ask to set up the Stata toolkit or troubleshoot the installation.
