minimal-run-and-audit

Trusted-lane execution and reporting skill for README-first AI repo reproduction. Use when the task is specifically to capture or normalize evidence from the selected smoke test or documented inference or evaluation command and write standardized `repro_outputs/` files, including patch notes when repository files changed. Do not use for training execution, initial repo intake, generic environment setup, paper lookup, target selection, or end-to-end orchestration by itself.

Summary

Trusted-lane execution and reporting skill for README-first AI repo reproduction. Use when the task is specifically to capture or normalize evidence from the selected smoke test or documented inference or evaluation command and write standardized `repro_outputs/` files, including patch notes when repository files changed. Do not use for training execution, initial repo intake, generic environment setup, paper lookup, target selection, or end-to-end orchestration by itself.

  • After a reproduction target and setup plan exist.
  • When the main skill needs execution evidence and normalized outputs.
  • When a smoke test, documented inference run, documented evaluation run, or other short non-training verification is appropriate.
  • When the user already knows what command should be attempted and wants execution plus reporting only.

When to apply

  • After a reproduction target and setup plan exist.
  • When the main skill needs execution evidence and normalized outputs.
  • When a smoke test, documented inference run, documented evaluation run, or other short non-training verification is appropriate.
  • When the user already knows what command should be attempted and wants execution plus reporting only.

When not to apply

  • During initial repo scanning.
  • When environment or assets are still undefined enough to make execution meaningless.
  • When the task is a literature lookup rather than repository execution.
  • When the user is still deciding which reproduction target should count as the main run.

Clear boundaries

  • This skill owns normalized reporting for an attempted command.
  • It may receive execution evidence from the main skill or a thin helper.
  • It does not choose the overall target on its own.
  • It does not perform broad paper analysis.
  • It does not own training startup, resume, or long-running training state.
  • It should not normalize risky code edits into acceptable practice.

Input expectations

  • selected reproduction goal
  • runnable commands or smoke commands
  • environment and asset assumptions
  • optional patch metadata

Output expectations

  • execution result summary
  • standardized repro_outputs/ files
  • clear distinction between verified, partial, and blocked states
  • PATCHES.md when repo files changed
