ablation-design SKILL.md skillA
ablation-design from yogsoth-ai/de-anthropocentric-research-engine is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.
mdr add yogsoth-ai/de-anthropocentric-research-engine/ablation-design@v1.0.0Pins v1.0.0 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Design ablation studies to isolate component contributions in ML systems.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Strategy: Ablation Design **Question**: What does each component contribute? ## Methodology - **Systematic Ablation** (Newell 1974): Remove one component at a time, measure degradation. - **Replacement Ablation**: Replace component with simpler alternative to isolate contribution. - **Combinatorial Ablation** (ABLATOR): Test component subsets to detect interaction effects. - **Conditional Ablation**: Ablate components under specific data conditions to find context-dependent contributions. ## Execution Flow 1. **ablation-component-mapping** → Map system architecture to ablatable units 2. **baseline-selection** → Select full-system and minimal-system anchors 3. **metric-specification** → Define metrics that capture component contribution 4. **sample-size-estimation** → Determine runs needed for reliable delta estimation 5. **statistical-method-selection** (tactic) → Choose appropriate significance tests for deltas ## Budget Gate | Ablation Type | Components (N) | Min Runs | When to Use | |---------------|---------------|----------|-------------| | Systematic (leave-one-out) | 3-8 | N + 2 | Standard component analysis | …

How to install
mdr add yogsoth-ai/de-anthropocentric-research-engine/ablation-design@sha256:3b0962fa52e2c171The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
