/stata-replication — Stata pipeline scaffold + execution

Build a complete Stata replication pipeline in scripts/stata/: numbered .do files following .claude/rules/stata-code-conventions.md, executed via the stata-mcp MCP server, with outputs landing in scripts/stata/_outputs/.

When to use

• Your project's analysis language is Stata (not R). Common in econ field experiments, RCT studies, and any AEA submission where the original replication package is Stata.
• You're porting an R-first project to Stata for an AEA submission.
• You're adding a Stata robustness check to an R-first paper.
• You want a one-command reproduction: do scripts/stata/99_run_all.do.

When NOT to use

• Your project is R-first. Use /data-analysis.
• Your project is Python-first. Neither this skill nor /data-analysis is the right fit; consider extending the convention rule for Python or porting one of these skills.
• You're doing quick exploratory work. The numbered-pipeline scaffold is for replication packages, not scratch notebooks.
