experiment-suite

experiment-suite is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from ai4s-research/ai4s-skills. It costs 48 tokens per session (2,393 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

An end-to-end package for answering a research question with an experiment. It produces a design, runnable code, measured or simulated results, publication-quality figures, and a structured report.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps define hypotheses, datasets, baselines, metrics, and ablations, then build experiment code, evaluate results, and prepare figures and reports.
Why use it?
It brings the main experiment tasks into one workflow and makes the origin of results explicit.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

experiment-suite scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 12d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 4 executable files (figure_examples/make_fig_02_horizon_sweep.py, figure_examples/make_fig_03_heatmap.py, figure_examples/make_fig_04_ablation.py, …), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Experiment Suite

Overview

End-to-end experiment package builder. Single stage, full quality from the start. The agent (Claude Code / Cursor / Aider / Codex / …) writes everything directly using its own tools (Write, Bash, WebFetch, …). This skill contains procedure + reference playbooks + figure-example scripts — no Python runtime, no LLM SDK.

The substantive work is decomposed into reference playbooks under references/:

Reference Topic
references/00-incremental-execution.md how to do this without losing work: batches, persistence, resume — read first
references/01-design-depth.md what a real experiment design contains (motivation → hypothesis → datasets → baselines → metrics → ablations → budget)
references/01a-data-contract.md runtime dataset binding: source, access route, version, split, and reuse boundary
references/02-code-quality.md code-skeleton standards — runnable model.py, data.py, train.py, evaluate.py
references/03-results-protocol.md results.json schema; measured / simulated / illustrative provenance
references/04-publication-figures.md publication-grade charts, multi-panel layouts, taste rules
references/04a-figure-contract.md figure logic before plotting: conclusion, panel map, reviewer risk
references/04b-figure-qa.md export bundle, editable text, statistics and image-integrity QA
references/05-report-structure.md structured experiment_report.md (problem → design → method → results → analysis → limitations)
references/06-quality-gate.md self-check before delivery

Also: figure_examples/ — publication-style matplotlib scripts plus a shared style kit the agent can use as starting points.

Read the relevant reference before writing, not after. The full pass does not fit in a single turn — references/00-incremental-execution.md is the only execution mode that completes.

When to Use

  • User wants to "design an experiment" for a research question.
  • User needs runnable code for a specific task (classification / forecasting / detection / …).
  • User wants to compare methods and have a structured report at the end.
  • User needs publication-quality figures of experimental results.

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

experiment-suite is a skill published in the GitHub repository ai4s-research/ai4s-skills (223 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 48 tokens to every session and 2,393 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
