Outlier Detection & Handling

Identify and manage statistical outliers.

When to Use

  • Use this skill when the task needs Use outlier detection handler for data analysis workflows that need structured execution, explicit assumptions, and clear output boundaries.
  • Use this skill for data analysis tasks that require explicit assumptions, bounded scope, and a reproducible output format.
  • Use this skill when you need a documented fallback path for missing inputs, execution errors, or partial evidence.

    • Key Features

  • Scope-focused workflow aligned to: Use outlier detection handler for data analysis workflows that need structured execution, explicit assumptions, and clear output boundaries.
  • Packaged executable path(s): scripts/main.py.
  • Structured execution path designed to keep outputs consistent and reviewable.

    • Dependencies

    See ## Prerequisites above for related details.

  • Python: 3.10+. Repository baseline for current packaged skills.
  • numpy: unspecified. Declared in requirements.txt.
  • scipy: unspecified. Declared in requirements.txt.

    • Example Usage

    cd "20260318/scientific-skills/Data Analytics/outlier-detection-handler"
python -m py_compile scripts/main.py
python scripts/main.py --help

    Example run plan: 1. Confirm the user input, output path, and any required config values. 2. Edit the in-file CONFIG block or documented parameters if the script uses fixed settings. 3. Run python scripts/main.py with the validated inputs. 4. Review the generated output and return the final artifact with any assumptions called out.

    Implementation Details

    See ## Workflow above for related details.

  • Execution model: validate the request, choose the packaged workflow, and produce a bounded deliverable.
  • Input controls: confirm the source files, scope limits, output format, and acceptance criteria before running any script.
  • Primary implementation surface: scripts/main.py.
  • Parameters to clarify first: input path, output path, scope filters, thresholds, and any domain-specific constraints.
  • Output discipline: keep results reproducible, identify assumptions explicitly, and avoid undocumented side effects.

    • Quick Check

    Use this command to verify that the packaged script entry point can be parsed before deeper execution.

    python -m py_compile scripts/main.py

    Audit-Ready Commands

    Use these concrete commands for validation. They are intentionally self-contained and avoid placeholder paths.

    python -m py_compile scripts/main.py
python scripts/main.py --help

    Workflow

    1. Confirm the user objective, required inputs, and non-negotiable constraints before doing detailed work. 2. Validate that the request matches the documented scope and stop early if the task would require unsupported assumptions. 3. Use the packaged script path or the documented reasoning path with only the inputs that are actually available. 4. Return a structured result that separates assumptions, deliverables, risks, and unresolved items. 5. If execution fails or inputs are incomplete, switch to the fallback path and state exactly what blocked full completion.

    Use Cases

  • Data quality control
  • Pre-analysis screening
  • Regulatory compliance (FDA data integrity)

    • Parameters

    | Parameter | Type | Required | Default | Description | |-----------|------|----------|---------|-------------| | data | str | Yes | - | Path to dataset file (CSV/Excel) | | method | str | No | "3-sigma" | Detection method: "3-sigma", "IQR", or "Grubbs" | | action | str | No | "flag" | Handling action: "flag", "remove", or "winsorize" |

    Returns

  • Outlier flagging with method details
  • Handling recommendations
  • Documentation for regulatory submission

    • Example

    Input: Biomarker measurements from 200 patients Output: 5 outliers identified (2.5%), recommended action: investigate then winsorize

    Risk Assessment

    | Risk Indicator | Assessment | Level | |----------------|------------|-------| | Code Execution | Python/R scripts executed locally | Medium | | Network Access | No external API calls | Low | | File System Access | Read input files, write output files | Medium | | Instruction Tampering | Standard prompt guidelines | Low | | Data Exposure | Output files saved to workspace | Low |

  • [ ] Prompt injection protections in place
  • [ ] Input file paths validated (no ../ traversal)
  • [ ] Output directory restricted to workspace
  • [ ] Script execution in sandboxed environment
  • [ ] Error messages sanitized (no stack traces exposed)
  • [ ] Dependencies audited

    Lifecycle Status

  • Current Stage: Draft
  • Next Review Date: 2026-03-06
  • Known Issues: None
  • Planned Improvements:
    • - Performance optimization - Additional feature support

    Output Requirements

    Every final response should make these items explicit when they are relevant:

  • Objective or requested deliverable
  • Inputs used and assumptions introduced
  • Workflow or decision path
  • Core result, recommendation, or artifact
  • Constraints, risks, caveats, or validation needs
  • Unresolved items and next-step checks

    • Error Handling

  • If required inputs are missing, state exactly which fields are missing and request only the minimum additional information.
  • If the task goes outside the documented scope, stop instead of guessing or silently widening the assignment.
  • If scripts/main.py fails, report the failure point, summarize what still can be completed safely, and provide a manual fallback.
  • Do not fabricate files, citations, data, search results, or execution outcomes.

    • Input Validation

    This skill accepts requests that match the documented purpose of outlier-detection-handler and include enough context to complete the workflow safely.

    Do not continue the workflow when the request is out of scope, missing a critical input, or would require unsupported assumptions. Instead respond:

    > outlier-detection-handler only handles its documented workflow. Please provide the missing required inputs or switch to a more suitable skill.

    Response Template

    Use the following fixed structure for non-trivial requests:

    1. Objective 2. Inputs Received 3. Assumptions 4. Workflow 5. Deliverable 6. Risks and Limits 7. Next Checks

    If the request is simple, you may compress the structure, but still keep assumptions and limits explicit when they affect correctness.
