pytorch-training

pytorch-training is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from aiming-lab/AutoResearchClaw. It costs 23 tokens per session (359 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A set of guidelines for writing PyTorch training loops, which are the repeated steps used to teach a machine-learning model from data.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when generating or reviewing PyTorch code for training, validation, metric logging, checkpoint saving, learning-rate changes, and early stopping.
Why use it?
It helps avoid common training problems such as irreproducible results, inefficient GPU use, missing validation checks, and losing the best model.

About the project

AutoResearchClaw is a system that turns a research idea into a scientific paper through autonomous and collaborative AI research workflows. It is for researchers who want agents to investigate questions, run experiments, and produce papers, with optional human guidance. Catalogue skills and agents provide parts of its research workflow.

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

pytorch-training 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 8d ago.

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.

What it actually says

PyTorch Training Best Practice

  1. Use torch.manual_seed() for reproducibility (set for torch, numpy, random)
  2. Use DataLoader with num_workers>0 and pin_memory=True for GPU
  3. Enable cudnn.benchmark=True for fixed input sizes
  4. Use learning rate schedulers (CosineAnnealingLR or OneCycleLR)
  5. Implement early stopping based on validation metric
  6. Log metrics every epoch, save best model checkpoint
  7. Use torch.no_grad() for evaluation
  8. Clear gradients with optimizer.zero_grad(set_to_none=True) for efficiency
Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

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.

pytorch-training is a skill published in the GitHub repository aiming-lab/AutoResearchClaw (14,352 stars, last pushed 20d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 23 tokens to every session and 359 once invoked, about $0.0001 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.
