discover-ml

An automatic finder for guidance about machine learning and artificial intelligence, including training models and using them to make predictions. It also covers tools and methods such as PyTorch, embeddings, RAG, and fine-tuning.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for model training, inference, evaluation, data preparation, retrieval-augmented generation, embeddings, fine-tuning, diffusion models, and deploying machine-learning services.
Why use it?
It helps identify relevant machine-learning guidance when a task involves models or AI systems. This reduces the need to search through many separate topics.

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

discover-ml 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 2d 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 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.

discover-ml is a skill published in the GitHub repository rand/cc-polymath (136 stars, last pushed 6mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 54 tokens to every session and 613 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.
