# Subagent-Driven Analysis Execute a pre-registered analysis plan by dispatching a fresh subagent per analysis step, with two-stage review after each: protocol-compliance review first (did it run exactly what was pre-registered, nothing more), then statistical-rigor review (assumptions, leakage, correctness, reproducibility). **Why subagents:** You delegate steps to specialized agents with isolated context. By precisely crafting their instructions, you keep them focused and prevent them from improvising analyses you didn't pre-register. They never inherit your session's history — you construct exactly what they need. This also preserves your own context for coordination. **Core principle:** Fresh subagent per step + two-stage review (protocol then rigor) = trustworthy, reproducible results. **Continuous execution:** Do not pause to check in between steps. Execute the whole plan. The only reasons to stop: a BLOCKED status you cannot resolve, an anomaly that needs `science-superpowers:investigating-anomalous-results`, a genuine ambiguity, or all steps complete. ## Prerequisite The analysis plan MUST be pre-registered and frozen (`science-superpowers:preregistering-analysis`) before a

How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add K-Dense-AI/science-superpowers --skill subagent-driven-analysis --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From K-Dense-AI/science-superpowers, a repository with 280 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
