International Trade Impact Analysis
Analyze international trade impacts on economies, policy, and supply chains
What You Can Do
This skill helps you systematically evaluate the economic, social, and strategic impacts of international trade decisions. You can model trade agreement scenarios, trace supply chain disruptions, assess sector-specific effects, and quantify costs versus benefits across multiple stakeholders. Get structured analysis that supports evidence-based policy and business decisions.
Features
Apply multi-dimensional analysis to evaluate how tariffs, quotas, and trade agreements affect employment, prices, GDP, and competitiveness across industries
Identify critical dependencies, single-source vulnerabilities, and cascading disruption risks across global supply networks
Quantify production efficiency, trade-off profiles, and specialization opportunities for regions based on factor endowments and productivity
Model outcomes of proposed tariffs, subsidies, trade agreements, or trade wars with probabilistic impact ranges for key economic indicators
Disaggregate winners and losers by industry, geography, and worker demographics to understand distributional effects and adjustment costs
Benchmark rules of origin, tariff schedules, services provisions, and regulatory harmonization clauses against economic objectives and competitiveness goals
Compile and reconcile conflicting research findings, data sources, and assumptions into coherent narratives with confidence intervals
Example Output
Trade War Tariff Scenario Analysis
Impact of 25% tariffs on imported automobiles:
- ✓ Domestic employment: +12,000–18,000 auto manufacturing jobs
- ✓ Consumer prices: +3–5% vehicle cost (drives 80K+ fewer sales annually)
- ✓ GDP effect: +0.15% short-term → −0.22% long-term (once retaliation settles)
- ✓ Winners: Rust Belt auto suppliers, union workers; Losers: car buyers, downstream manufacturers
- ✓ Risk: Retaliatory tariffs on agriculture (−$2.1B farm exports)
Supply Chain Resilience Report
Semiconductor supply chain vulnerability:
- Single-source risk: Taiwan (92% of advanced chip production) → Japan (photomasks)
- Disruption scenarios: Taiwan strait crisis (−$180B global GDP in year 1); Japan earthquake (3-month chip shortage)
- Mitigation options: Regional fabrication subsidies ($50B), inventory buffers (+3 months cost)
- Recommendation: Dual-source critical stages within 5-year horizon

This skill helps you construct econometric forecasting models from time series data without writing code. You define variables, specify relationships, and Claude generates ARIMA, VAR, and regression models with diagnostic tests. Get confidence intervals, residual analysis, and publication-ready forecasts in minutes.
Estimate demand elasticity coefficients from your data, perform comprehensive sensitivity analyses across price points, and develop evidence-based pricing strategies grounded in microeconomic principles. You'll understand how price changes affect demand, model revenue and profit scenarios, and identify optimal pricing that maximizes both profitability and market positioning.
You can conduct rigorous condition assessments of historic building fabric, document material compositions and deterioration mechanisms, and translate field observations into technically sound restoration specifications that withstand peer review and agency approval. This protocol creates an evidence-based foundation for restoration decisions, particularly for complex masonry, timber, or plaster assemblies, and helps you justify material and technique choices for grant applications and heritage preservation projects.
Analyze complex trade agreements and quantify their macroeconomic effects on tariffs, supply chains, and bilateral commerce. You'll receive detailed impact models showing wage effects, inflation pressure, and sectoral shifts—all with evidence-based policy recommendations you can defend in negotiations. This skill transforms raw trade data into actionable strategic analysis.

This skill helps you design defensible policy evaluations from the ground up, diagnose threats to causal inference in your methodology, and translate complex econometric results into persuasive arguments for non-technical stakeholders. You get structured frameworks for evaluation design, systematic checklists for identifying methodological vulnerabilities, and communication strategies that build policy maker confidence in your findings.
You can structure comprehensive health economic models from scratch, validate key assumptions against published literature, and synthesize evidence to support policy decisions. The skill helps you identify methodological gaps, document assumptions transparently, and calculate cost-effectiveness ratios with documented uncertainty ranges. You'll produce policy-ready analyses that clearly communicate the economic case for interventions to stakeholders.
You can systematize your analysis of environmental policies through rigorous economic frameworks, modeling cost-benefit scenarios and projecting long-term impacts with structured workflows. This skill automates the labor-intensive process of weaving policy objectives, economic theory, and quantitative modeling into coherent impact assessments. You'll produce defensible, evidence-based evaluations that translate environmental goals into measurable economic outcomes.
Systematically diagnose market structures (perfect competition, monopolistic competition, oligopoly, monopoly), evaluate firm conduct and pricing strategies, and assess competitive positioning.
