SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Experimentation helps you replace uncertain design decisions with small, reproducible LLM/prompt/architecture runs that produce decision-ready evidence.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Reproducible experiment runs: Scaffolds an experiments/YYYY-MM-DD-<slug>/ folder with a harness and raw outputs for auditability.
  • Doc-backed decision locking: Forces a new ## 17.N sprint record appended to docs/refactor_main_v3.md so evidence is tied to the refactor timeline.
  • Self-improvement loop: Appends a concise “Lessons learned” entry to the skill so each run improves future experimentation quality.

Quick Start

Run the experimentation skill with a one-line driving question that names the exact refactor doc section being challenged and includes a measurable success criterion.

FAQPage Schema
How do I run reproducible LLM experiments to validate prompt and architecture choices?▼

To run reproducible LLM experiments, you provide a driving question with a measurable success criterion. The skill scaffolds a dated experiment folder containing raw outputs and a harness, ensuring your prompt and architecture testing is fully auditable.

What is the best way to document LLM experiment evidence for repo refactoring decisions?▼

The best way to document experiment evidence is by appending a new sprint record to your refactor documentation. This locks the validation results directly into your project timeline, tying token budget claims and architecture decisions to dated experiment outputs.

How do I test a new model integration or NIM behavior before committing to a sprint?▼

You test a new model integration by running a small, reproducible experiment that validates the specific NIM behavior. The process generates raw outputs and appends a sprint record, giving you decision-ready evidence before making a sprint commitment.

Can I use this approach to evaluate prompt scoring heuristics and latency claims?▼

Yes, you can evaluate prompt scoring heuristics and latency claims by running targeted experiment runs. Each run generates a dated folder with raw outputs, turning ambiguous performance claims into reproducible evidence for your refactoring decisions.

Does the experimentation process improve future prompt evaluation quality?▼

Yes, the experimentation process improves future prompt evaluation quality through a self-improvement loop. It automatically appends concise lessons learned from each run back to the skill, enhancing subsequent architecture testing and experiment runs.
