Skill505 starsChanged 50 days agoApache-2.0View on GitHub

Audit claims of independent convergence by tracing shared priors, data, framing, models, prompts, assumptions, or upstream evidence; estimate an effective independent evidence count rather than treating nominal N paths as independent.

The file

We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent

2 rules. About 0 are common, 2 are distinctive, and 0 are very specific to this project.

  • ≈0

    Common · estimate

    Many files like this have a rule of this kind.

  • ≈2

    Distinctive · estimate

    This author's own choices. Worth a look.

  • 0

    Very specific

    Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.

  • Common
  • Distinctive
  • Very specific
  1. Distinctive:

    Do not perform called SOP operations inline.

    line 21
  2. Distinctive:

    Do not call repeated use of the same dataset, model, prompt, or source independent.

    line 41

≈ “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.

Keep what fits and drop the rest. Your version, ready for your agents.

audit-convergence-independence

Purpose

Estimate how much nominally independent convergence remains after shared priors, data, models, prompts, framings, assumptions, and upstream evidence are discounted.

Input contract

mode_contracts:
  evidence-paths: &convergence_audit_input
    required: [evidence_paths, claims, provenance_records]
    optional: [dependency_schema, correlation_estimates]
    constraints: [each_path_must_be_traceable_to_its_inputs_and_assumptions]
  agents: *convergence_audit_input
  models: *convergence_audit_input
  methods: *convergence_audit_input

Execution protocol

Do not perform called SOP operations inline; each loaded SOP owns its contract and thresholds.

  1. You MUST load skill identify-shared-priors to enumerate paths, provenance, and shared priors.
  2. You MUST load skill verify-evidence-independence to verify independence and mark shared dependencies.
  3. You MUST load skill estimate-effective-evidence-count to estimate the effective evidence count. You MUST load skill assess-sensitivity to perturb dependence assumptions. Deviation: use qualitative dependence classes when numeric correlation is unavailable; never count nominal paths as independent by default.

Output contract

mode_contracts:
  evidence-paths: &convergence_audit_output
    produces: [independence_ledger, effective_evidence_count, common_cause_framing, independent_path_result_or_design, correlated_errors, corrected_confidence_statement]
    delta_fields: [findings, evidence_updates, uncertainties, decisions, open_questions]
  agents: *convergence_audit_output
  models: *convergence_audit_output
  methods: *convergence_audit_output

Thresholds and quality gates

  • A-class sufficiency: declared universe = all claimed evidence/reasoning paths; numerator = paths with complete provenance and independence assessment; batch increment = one newly traced path; stopping reason = effective count stabilizes or remaining paths are dependent/irrelevant; source references = path IDs, source IDs, model/prompt IDs; direction/threshold reason = lower effective count when shared dependencies increase.
  • Report nominal N and N_eff separately.

Failure and counterexamples

Do not call repeated use of the same dataset, model, prompt, or source independent. Mark N_eff uncertain when dependence cannot be resolved.
