SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill ensures hypotheses are defined before data exploration, delivering a disciplined, bias-resistant framework for data analysis that supports reproducible conclusions.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Structured hypothesis formulation: Establish H0 and H1 with clear rationale to prevent data-driven bias.
  • End-to-end, phased workflow: From problem framing through conclusion and follow-up, with templates for each phase.
  • Auditable, reproducible process: Includes standardized documentation (01-08 files) and templates to preserve an audit trail.
  • Use cases: Validate business questions, confirm suspected effects, and communicate results with transparent assumptions.

Quick Start

  • Define your analytical goal and write H0/H1 using the Phase 1 template.
  • Design the test in Phase 2 before any queries and save to 02 - test-design.md.
  • Run Phase 3 queries, capture results in 03-06 files, and note data quality issues.
  • Interpret results in Phase 4 and finalize findings in Phase 5; update overview.

FAQPage Schema
How do I prevent p-hacking and bias in data analysis?

Prevent p-hacking and bias by formulating hypotheses rigorously before examining data. This structured workflow enforces explicit checkpoints from problem framing to conclusion, ensuring reproducible conclusions across datasets, periods, and segments.

What's the best way to structure reproducible hypothesis testing workflows?

Structure reproducible hypothesis testing using an end-to-end phased workflow with standardized documentation files. Templates guide each phase from problem framing through conclusion, preserving an audit trail for transparent assumptions and data analysis validation.

How do I establish null and alternative hypotheses before data exploration?

Establish H0 and H1 with clear rationale using a Phase 1 template before running queries. Defining hypotheses before data exploration prevents data-driven bias and ensures a disciplined, auditable framework for validating business questions.

Can I apply hypothesis testing across different datasets and segments?

Yes, structured hypothesis testing applies across datasets, periods, and segments. The phased workflow captures results in standardized files, noting data quality issues to maintain an auditable process for confirming suspected effects.

How do I document an audit trail for data analysis validation?

Document an audit trail using standardized templates and documentation files throughout the workflow. Capture test designs, query results, and data quality issues sequentially to preserve transparent assumptions and communicate findings reproducibly.

When do I need a structured hypothesis formulation framework?

You need a structured framework when validating business questions or confirming suspected effects requires bias-resistant analysis. It enforces reproducible workflows with templates and explicit checkpoints to guide analysis from hypothesis formulation to conclusion.
