# Modernize Stata
Use this skill when a user wants stronger Stata code, not just working Stata code.
1. Identify the current anti-patterns.
2. Recommend or implement modern replacements with clear rationale.
3. Favor frames, `reghdfe`, `gtools`, portable paths, and explicit state handling.
Read `references/patterns.md` for common replacements and examples.
