Use when comparing process cohorts, departments, periods or before-and-after results under matched definitions.
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
# Matched cohort comparisons
Use the [shared contract](../../references/analysis-contract.md) and
[filters/units](../../references/filters-and-units.md).
Fix the outcome definition/provenance, metric, aggregation, units, timezone and one selector S.
Freeze the user's agreed baseline F, separately from current exploratory filters.
Reuse metadata versions and exact typed cohort values. Use the
[investigation method](../../references/investigation-method.md) for findings/status.
## Ordered trace
1. Copy baseline F twice. For attribute cohorts append
`{attributeName:A,dataType:T,attributeValues:[X],isInclusive:true}` to
`attributeValueFilters` for A's cohort value, and the same shape with Y for B.
Preserve other agreed baseline conditions; retain rework restrictions only if part of that
baseline. Do not leak an exploratory/outcome-only subset into a full-population comparison.
Change only the intended cohort condition. If values are unknown, request
`get_attribute_values_v2 {S,attributeName:A,itemsPerPage:20,itemsToSkip:0,filterOptions:F}`;
it returns values, not frequencies.
2. `get_process_overall_metrics_v2 {S,filterOptions:F_A}` ->

How to install
mdr add microsoft/power-platform-skills/compare-cohorts@sha256:220fd9f5d174e36bThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261008.ca144d2, 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.
