Skill Metadata

Name
stata-help
Description
Look up Stata command documentation and display formatted help text.

The argument is the Stata command or help topic (e.g., "regress", "graph", "if", "egen", "frames").

Call stata_get_help(topic=<argument>, plain_text=False, merge_paragraphs=True).

Display the help text. The response is formatted as Markdown. Present:

  1. Syntax section first
  2. Description and options
  3. Examples if present

If no argument is provided, ask the user which Stata command they want help with.

If the help topic is not found (error in response), suggest:

  • Checking spelling (e.g., "summarize" not "summarise")
  • Using help contents as the topic for the help index
  • Searching for related commands with /stata-inspect using action="search"
