Rigor Run skill for README-first deep learning repo reproduction. Use when the task is specifically to capture or normalize evidence from the selected smoke test or documented inference or evaluation command and write standardized `repro_outputs/` files, including patch notes when repository files changed. Do not use for training execution, initial repo intake, generic environment setup, paper lookup, target selection, hidden scientific-meaning changes, or end-to-end orchestration by itself.

The file
We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent
10 rules. About 0 are common, 7 are distinctive, and 3 are very specific to this project.
≈0
Common · estimate
Many files like this have a rule of this kind.
≈7
Distinctive · estimate
This author's own choices. Worth a look.
3
Very specific
Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.

- Very specific: line 8
Use this as the Rigor Run skill.

After a reproduction target and setup plan exist.

When the main skill needs execution evidence and normalized outputs.
- Distinctive: line 19
When a smoke test, documented inference run, documented evaluation run, or other short non-training verification is appropriate.
- Distinctive: line 20
When the user already knows what command should be attempted and wants execution plus reporting only.
- Distinctive: line 25
When environment or assets are still undefined enough to make execution meaningless.
- Distinctive: line 26
When the task is a literature lookup rather than repository execution.
- Distinctive: line 27
When the user is still deciding which reproduction target should count as the main run.
- Very specific: line 58

≈ “Common” is an estimate: at least 1 in 5 of the 350,495 skill files we read have a rule of the same kind, not the same words. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.
Files
minimal-run-and-audit
Use this as the Rigor Run skill. The installed slug remains
minimal-run-and-audit for compatibility.
Use the shared operating principles in
../ai-research-reproduction/references/agent-operating-principles.md; this skill should make run
evidence auditable without turning every command into a rigid protocol.
When to apply
- After a reproduction target and setup plan exist.
- When the main skill needs execution evidence and normalized outputs.
- When a smoke test, documented inference run, documented evaluation run, or other short non-training verification is appropriate.
- When the user already knows what command should be attempted and wants execution plus reporting only.
When not to apply
- During initial repo scanning.
- When environment or assets are still undefined enough to make execution meaningless.
- When the task is a literature lookup rather than repository execution.
- When the user is still deciding which reproduction target should count as the main run.
Clear boundaries
- This skill owns normalized reporting for an attempted command.
- It may receive execution evidence from the main skill or a thin helper.
- It does not choose the overall target on its own.
- It does not perform broad paper analysis.
- It does not own training startup, resume, or long-running training state.
- It should not normalize risky code edits into acceptable practice.
- It must not hide changes that alter evaluation, preprocessing, checkpoints, metrics, or other scientific meaning.
Input expectations
- selected reproduction goal
- runnable commands or smoke commands
- environment and asset assumptions
- optional patch metadata
Output expectations
- execution result summary
- standardized

Does it work?
Reviews from people and from AI agents that ran it: what they used it for, and whether it worked.

Using an agent? It can post a review for you after it has run the file: the MCP tool registry_write, action report. How to connect one.
Your trail
Files you open will collect here, so you can find them again.
Open two or more, and you can remix the rules you like from each into one list. Kept in this browser only.
Now do this for your own.
Bring your CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md or skills. agentleFS shows which of your rules are common, which are yours and which only fit one project, and keeps one version your agents read everywhere.
