develop-method-to-sota skillA

develop-method-to-sota is agent-read markdown (skill) from gxcaesar/open-research-skills: Use when a method is not yet beating its baseline and the next change has to be chosen, including improving a model, reaching state of the art, deciding which component to add next, measuring headroom before building, designing an ablation control that can void a component, reading error by slice instead of one aggregate, or deciding whether to keep iterating or stop. Use during exploratory development on a development split, before any confirmatory run is frozen..

Indexed from public GitHub and served as immutable, content-addressed versions. Install it pinned to an exact SHA-256 with the mdr CLI, and every file is verified against the hash recorded here before it reaches your agent. The deterministic audit below grades the latest version, and the same file always earns the same grade.
