Use when a new or more complex ML model is proposed and its value over simple baselines is not yet demonstrated -- before approving a new architecture or replacing an existing heuristic.

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

## Purpose

Machine learning models add technical debt. A complex model earns its place only by clearly outperforming a "dumb" baseline; this review makes that comparison explicit before a new model is approved.

## When to Use

- A new model architecture is proposed for approval
- A complex model would replace an existing heuristic or rule
- Reported gains have not been compared against any baseline

## Inputs

- The candidate model's evaluation results (metric + data split)
- The evaluation code, or enough dataset/task detail to define fair baselines

## Workflow

1. **Define the naive baseline**:
   - Classification: predict the majority class.
   - Regression: predict the mean or median of the training target.
   - Time series: predict the last known value (naive persistence).
2. **Define the heuristic baseline**: what simple if/else rule would a domain expert write?
3. **Evaluate both baselines on the same split and metric as the candidate model.**
4. **Evaluate the delta**: if the complex model only beats the heuristic baseline marginally (e.g., ~1%), recommend keeping the heuristic — the complexity is not worth the maintenance cost.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add yeaight7/agent-powerups/baseline-comparison-review@sha256:eea84ee570e4bfe8

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260605.d942981, 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.
