# Demographic and Health Surveys agent skills for Claude Code, Cursor and RevampKey

> Ready-made Demographic and Health Surveys playbooks for AI agents: compare a health indicator's trend across countries with AI, check whether DHS survey data exists before you analyse it. Free SKILL.md files for Claude Code, Cursor and Codex, or one click in RevampKey.

## Skills

- [Use the DHS Program connector with AI](https://revampkey.com/marketplace/dhs-program/skills/essentials.md): Finds and reads published demographic and health survey indicators by country and survey year, with sample sizes and caveats. It only reads survey data and asks before running any tool that would change something.
- [Compare a health indicator's trend across countries with AI](https://revampkey.com/marketplace/dhs-program/skills/indicator-trend-comparison.md): Builds a like-for-like table of one DHS indicator across countries or survey rounds, with sample sizes, confidence intervals and comparability caveats. It only reads data and never changes anything.
- [Check whether DHS survey data exists before you analyse it](https://revampkey.com/marketplace/dhs-program/skills/survey-data-availability-check.md): Confirms whether a country, health indicator and survey year have actual DHS Program data, which rounds and breakdowns cover it, and what is missing, ending in a clear go or no-go note. It reads the data and changes nothing.

### What is a Demographic and Health Surveys agent skill?

A SKILL.md file: a short playbook an AI agent loads when your request matches it. Each Demographic and Health Surveys skill describes one job, which Demographic and Health Surveys tools to use in which order, what to check first and when to stop and ask you.

### Do the Demographic and Health Surveys skills change anything on their own?

3 of the 3 only read. The others tell the agent to show you the change and wait for a yes before it creates, edits or deletes anything in Demographic and Health Surveys.

### Which tools can use these skills?

Any agent that reads the open Agent Skills format: Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, VS Code with Copilot and RevampKey. In RevampKey they are attached when you connect Demographic and Health Surveys; elsewhere you copy the folders into your project or skills directory.

### Do I need the Demographic and Health Surveys MCP server too?

Yes. The skills tell the agent how to do the work; the Demographic and Health Surveys MCP server gives it the tools to do it. The Demographic and Health Surveys MCP setup guide covers every client.
