# Data Audit

Run a compact but explicit audit of the active dataset.

1. Start with `stata_inspect_data(action="describe")` and `stata_inspect_data(action="summary")`.
2. Use targeted `codebook`, `search`, and `stata_run` checks for key variables or suspicious patterns.
3. Report concrete issues, not generic reassurance.

Read `references/checklist.md` for the full audit checklist and recommended output format.
