Stata command & recipe writer

This skill turns "here's what I'm trying to do" into working Stata code — a full .do file when the task has multiple steps, or a short command sequence when it doesn't. The output is always something the user can paste into Stata and run, not a description of what they'd need to write.

Stata rewards precision more than most languages: a command that runs without error can still silently produce the wrong answer (unset panel structure, a merge nobody checked, gen where egen was needed for missing values). So this skill's job isn't just "make it run" — it's "make it run and be right," and to say why when a plausible-looking alternative would have been wrong.
