Expert guidance for the SAS programming language - DATA step, PROC SQL, macro language, formats, ODS, and common procedures. Pure SAS syntax only, no SASjs-framework content. Use when writing, reviewing, or debugging .sas programs, or answering SAS language questions.
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.

How to install
mdr add sasjs/skills/sas@sha256:24789fa788d6dd10The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261103.7a7a8d4, 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.
