fine-tuning-expert

fine-tuning-expert is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from PIXARTSeu/Synapse. It costs 129 tokens per session (1,585 once invoked), scanned A, original, no licence file.

A guide to fine-tuning language models, meaning adapting a pre-trained model with task-specific examples. It covers adapter methods such as LoRA and QLoRA, training data, settings, and transfer learning.

In plain words
What is it for?
Preparing JSONL datasets, configuring fine-tuning runs, training LoRA or QLoRA adapters, and adapting models with Hugging Face PEFT or OpenAI fine-tuning.
Why use it?
It helps turn a general model into one better suited to a particular task by organizing the dataset and training configuration.

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

fine-tuning-expert 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.

A licence we could not identify

The repository carries a LICENSE file, but it is custom or dual enough that GitHub cannot name it and neither can this catalogue. Unknown terms are not permission, so the body is not copied here. Read the licence at the source and decide for yourself.

What ships with it

5 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

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.
