llm-finetuning

llm-finetuning is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from j4flmao/agent-skills. It costs 21 tokens per session (292 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

Guidance for adapting a language model to a specific dataset using parameter-efficient fine-tuning, a way to train selected parts or small add-ons instead of the whole model. It focuses on preparing data and using PEFT or LoRA.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to format, clean, deduplicate, tokenize, and fine-tune instruction-based datasets, then save a trained model checkpoint.
Why use it?
It helps avoid common training problems such as inconsistent examples, duplicate data, and overfitting, where a model memorises training examples too closely.

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

llm-finetuning 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 10d 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.

LLM Fine-Tuning (PEFT/LoRA)

Dataset Preparation

  • Format data strictly as Instruction/Input/Output pairs.
  • Clean and deduplicate to prevent overfitting.

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.
