compare SKILL.md skillA
compare from fcakyon/labrat is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.
mdr add fcakyon/labrat/compare@git:20261030.b34f8aaPins git:20261030.b34f8aa in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Same-epoch comparison and analysis of training runs across wandb, neptune, tensorboard, mlflow, or local result files. Aligns runs at the student's current step (never current-vs-final-of-baseline) and separates proxy metrics from downstream targets. Also writes run summaries and experiment reports, analyzes ablations, and monitors training. Use when the user asks to compare runs, check if a run is improving, track lag against a baseline, rank experiments, evaluate run-vs-run performance…
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
# Compare: same-epoch run comparison across trackers The most common comparison error is reporting "run A is 4 percentage points behind baseline" when run A is at epoch 11 of 100 and the baseline number is from epoch 100. The student is _still training_; the comparison is meaningless. This skill enforces same-epoch alignment. The agentic Stop hook routes here from `reason` when an assistant reports a delta without aligning the runs. If the question is "why did X fail / diverge / underperform", go to `/labrat:debug` first. ## Auto-detect the tracker Check in this order: 1. `WANDB_API_KEY` env var set, or `wandb` imports or a `*.yaml` config with wandb keys in the project → **wandb** 2. `NEPTUNE_API_TOKEN` env var set, or a `*.yaml` config with neptune keys → **neptune** 3. `MLFLOW_TRACKING_URI` env var set, or `mlruns/` dir present → **mlflow** 4. `runs/` or `lightning_logs/` dir present → **tensorboard** 5. `*results*.json` / `*meta*.json` / `eval*.csv` files in run dirs → **local file format**: read one sample file and write the analysis code for that format, not a hardcoded script If none, ask the user where metrics live before guessing. ## The protocol …

How to install
mdr add fcakyon/labrat/compare@sha256:82ae8b99a906f928The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261030.b34f8aa, 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.
