Use this skill for ad-hoc read-only SQL on the PNADC SQLite database produced by this repo (`data/outputs/brasil.sqlite`). Trigger when the user asks for a precise custom aggregate — a specific AVG/SUM/COUNT, a specific UF or demographic cut, an arbitrary filter — that `brasil dashboard` or `brasil renda-por-faixa-sm` cannot express. Provides a PT/EN column dictionary, ten ready-made safe queries, and LLM guardrails. Companion to `brasil-cli-analyst` for the "exact number for X" use case.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# pnad-query

A narrow-focus skill: **run safe, read-only SQL** against the PNADC SQLite
database built by `brasil pipeline-run` / `brasil pipeline-run-anual`.

Use when the question is:

- *"Exact average labor income in Pernambuco for men aged 40-59"*
- *"Share of households in Recife where the reference person has completed higher education"*
- *"Count of workers with formal contract in Santa Catarina industry"*

— i.e. **specific, flat queries** the dashboard does not express.

For broader "paint me a picture" questions, prefer `brasil-cli-analyst`.

---

## the one command you need

```bash
brasil query \
  --db data/outputs/brasil.sqlite \
  --sql "<YOUR_SQL>" \
  --format json
```

Defaults: read-only, max 500 rows, JSON output, sampling metadata attached.

## tables

| table | survey | primary income column | separate benefits? |
|---|---|---|---|
| `base_labeled_npv` | **PNADC trimestral** | `VD4020__rendim_efetivo_qq_trabalho` (effective labor income) | ❌ |
| `base_anual_labeled_npv` | **PNADC anual visita 5** | `VD5001__rendim_domiciliar` (full household income) | ✅ — `V5001A2..V5008A2` |

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add arvorco/pnad/pnad-query@sha256:9e4654b38c29615b

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260419.32e5018, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
