notebook-workflow SKILL.md skillC

notebook-workflow from qutone/lightstim is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned
mdr add qutone/lightstim/notebook-workflow@git:20260526.04c57b9

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

# Notebook Workflow

How to use LightStim notebooks: from protocol prototyping through packaging,
benchmarking, and final demo format.

---

## 1. Development lifecycle

```
[PROTOTYPE] notebook
      │  implement circuit logic, visualize, debug
      ↓
lightstim/protocols/<name>.py    ← package the protocol
      │
      ↓
benchmarks/<category>/           ← large-scale numerical sweep
      │  run_<name>.py  (CSV output, checkpointing)
      │  plot_<name>.py (reads CSV, saves PNG)
      ↓
[DEMO] notebook                  ← import from protocols, strip raw code
```

---

## 2. Notebook status labels

Add one of these labels at the top of every notebook (as a Markdown cell):

```
**[PROTOTYPE]** — protocol code lives here; not yet packaged into lightstim/protocols/
```

```
**[DEMO]** — protocol is in lightstim/protocols/; this notebook only imports and demonstrates
```

A DEMO notebook should contain **no raw circuit-building logic** — only imports,
a small visualization, and a small hardcoded numerical result.

---

## 3. Verification before packaging

Before moving a protocol from notebook to `lightstim/protocols/`, validate with a
small-scale run (d=3, a handful of p-values):
…

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add qutone/lightstim/notebook-workflow@sha256:098688f2c8037a20

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260526.04c57b9, 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.

Starting a new one? Use a template for SKILL.md on mdpantry, which passes every one of these checks and says what to change in it.
