Document Environment Snapshot
Capture the full environment state and save it as a reproducibility record.
Steps
Gather system and tool versions:
uname -a # OS info
quarto --version # Quarto
uv --version # uv
python3 --version # Python
Capture Python package versions:
uv pip list # all installed packages with versions
Capture Jupyter kernel list:
uv run jupyter kernelspec list
If R is available, capture R session info:
R -e "sessionInfo()"
If Stata is available, note the version:
which stata # or check nbstata.conf for edition info
Read ~/.config/nbstata/nbstata.conf for stata_dir and edition.
If TeX Live is available:
pdflatex --version | head -1
Generate a timestamped Markdown file with all collected information:
# Environment Snapshot — YYYY-MM-DD
## System
- OS: ...
- Platform: ...
## Tools
| Tool | Version |
| ---- | ------- |
| Quarto | x.x.x |

| Python | 3.12.x |
| R | x.x.x (or N/A) |
| Stata | SE x.x (or N/A) |
| TeX Live | xxxx (or N/A) |
## Jupyter Kernels
- python3: /path/to/kernel
- ir: /path/to/kernel (or N/A)
- nbstata: /path/to/kernel (or N/A)
## Python Packages

## R Session Info
(full sessionInfo() output, or "R not available")
## Stata Packages
(ado dir output, or "Stata not available")
Save to notes/environment-YYYYMMDD.md (using today's date).
