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

# Difference-in-differences

An opinionated DiD workflow grounded in a read canon (references/canon.md).
Deliverable: the recommendation with its citation, the R estimation and diagnostics
code, and a methods paragraph. The skill stops at the four stop points in
../causal-design/references/shared-rules.md (section "Stop points") and puts each choice to the user.
Where the literature is unsettled the skill names a default and the condition that moves you off
it, and where the canon genuinely disagrees it says so instead of faking consensus.

Current as of 2026-10-09; refresh per shared-rules (../causal-design/references/shared-rules.md,
section "Refresh path").
Nothing enters the canon without the user's approval.

## Exemplar designs

Seven shapes worth recognizing on sight. Find the one your data looks like before writing a
specification; what each one teaches is in references/canon.md, section "Exemplar rows".

| Design shape | Canonical case | Marketing analogue | What kills it |

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add ericluo04/claude-academic-workflow/did@sha256:bd15bf3d655b5007

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261009.20e3598, 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.
