egocentric_view_to_structured_log

egocentric_view_to_structured_log is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from AndyZhuang/Opentest. It costs 63 tokens per session (3,664 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A tool that turns first-person video from an extended-reality headset into a time-ordered experiment record. It identifies actions, objects, locations, and optional observations, then outputs Markdown or JSON.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to document laboratory procedures, attach timelines to electronic lab notebooks, compare work with a protocol, support compliance reviews, or provide input for scientific method writing.
Why use it?
It reduces the need to write notes by hand while an experiment is happening and creates a record that can be checked later.

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

egocentric_view_to_structured_log 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 11d 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.

Egocentric View to Structured Log

Overview

egocentric_view_to_structured_log transforms raw first-person XR headset footage into a machine-readable experiment timeline. It processes the egocentric video stream frame-by-frame (or at configurable intervals), applies VLM or action-recognition models to infer what the operator did — pipetting, vortexing, adding reagent, loading centrifuge, labeling tube — and emits a structured log with timestamp, action type, object(s) involved, spatial location, and optional result or observation. The output is Markdown (human-readable timeline) or JSON (for programmatic consumption), suitable for ELN attachment, protocol compliance cross-reference, generate_scientific_method_section input, or audit trail documentation in the LabOS "from video to paper" pipeline.

When to Use This Skill

Use this skill when any of the following conditions are present:

  • Experiment timeline documentation: A researcher needs a chronological record of what was done during an experiment — "at 14:23, added buffer to tube A1; at 14:25, vortexed; at 14:30, loaded centrifuge" — without manual note-taking.
  • ELN or Benchling attachment: An electronic lab notebook entry requires an attached experiment log; the skill produces a Markdown or JSON file suitable for upload.
  • Protocol compliance cross-reference: The structured log serves as ground truth for protocol_video_matching — compare log events against protocol steps to detect deviations.
  • Methods section provenance: generate_scientific_method_section consumes the log to document the exact sequence of actions performed, with timestamps and objects.
  • Post-hoc experiment reconstruction: An experiment failed or produced unexpected results; the log enables step-by-step review to identify potential causes (e.g., "reagent added at 14:23, but protocol says add at 14:20 — 3 min delay").
  • Training and assessment: A trainee's run is logged; the timeline is reviewed by a supervisor for feedback on sequence, timing, and technique.
  • Audit trail for GLP/GMP: Regulated workflows require a timestamped record of every action; the log provides a structured, tamper-evident audit trail (when combined with video hash).
  • Multi-operator coordination: When multiple people work at the same bench, the log can be tagged by operator (if face/ID available) or left anonymous for aggregate timeline.

egocentric_view_to_structured_log is a skill published in the GitHub repository AndyZhuang/Opentest (22 stars, last pushed 6mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 63 tokens to every session and 3,664 once invoked, about $0.0003 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.
