AutoSci: Skill for Claude Code

.claude/skills/exp-pilot-run/SKILL.md

exp-pilot-run is a skill for Claude Code from skyllwt/AutoSci. It costs 54 tokens per session (3,584 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A workflow for running a pilot experiment from a YAML specification file. YAML is a plain-text format often used for configuration.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to read a pilot specification, write and run the experiment locally or on a remote machine, and return raw results without changing wiki pages or deciding whether the experiment passed.
Why use it?
It adds a required user review before experimental code and settings are run, helping catch mistakes in datasets, parameters, or API configuration.

This is skyllwt/AutoSci's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on AutoSci itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything AutoSci configures →

Needs its repository: it runs a file that does not travel with it, so clone the repository first. The line is python3 tools/remote.py setup-env --requirements experiments/pilot/code/{slug}/requirements.txt.

About the project

AutoSci is an AI research platform organized around a wiki, with an agent that supports stages of scientific work such as reading, experimentation, writing, and retaining knowledge across projects. It is for people building or using AI-assisted research workflows, with Claude Code, Codex, and OpenCode adaptations available. The catalogue add-ons extend those agent-specific workflows.

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

exp-pilot-run 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 9d 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.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 271 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

/exp-pilot-run

Execute a pilot experiment described by a Pilot Spec YAML file. Reads the spec from experiments/pilot/{slug}.yaml, writes pilot code, runs the experiment(Confirm with the user before operation and require the applicant to conduct manual inspection), and returns raw results to the caller. No matter which operating mode is adopted, before the experimental code is ready for deployment and operation, confirmation shall be obtained from users. Users need to manually check relevant information including codes and experimental configurations(Such as dataset paths, interface parameter selection, API configuration and so on). The operation can only be launched after confirmation. Otherwise, revisions shall be made repeatedly until users approve the execution. Supports local (direct GPU) and remote (SSH deployment via tools/remote.py) modes. Does NOT modify any wiki pages. Does NOT judge pass/fail — results are evaluated by /exp-pilot-eval.

Inputs

  • idea-slug: slug used to locate experiments/pilot/{slug}.yaml
  • --env local|remote (optional, default local): deployment environment
    • local: run directly on local GPU
    • remote: deploy to remote machine via SSH (requires config/server.yaml)

Outputs

  • Pilot code: experiments/pilot/code/{slug}/ (train.py, config.yaml, run.sh, requirements.txt)
  • Pilot results: experiments/pilot/code/{slug}/results/seed_{N}.json
  • Pilot log: experiments/pilot/code/{slug}/pilot.log
  • PILOT_REPORT (printed to terminal) — results table, run details, anomalies
  • Returns raw results and key metrics to caller
  • NO wiki page modifications

Wiki Interaction

Reads

  • experiments/pilot/{slug}.yaml — Pilot Spec (all configuration) If the Pilot Spec for the selected idea does not exist at the corresponding position, remind the user and create it following the steps for creating a Pilot Spec in /ideate Phase 5.
  • wiki/papers/*.md — related papers' method descriptions (implementation reference)

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.
