Use when a quest needs one or more follow-up runs such as ablations, robustness checks, error analysis, or failure analysis after a main experiment.
One test taskWe need to execute an ablation slice that takes 2 hours to compute. Should we run this command as a blocking synchronous shell call and wait for it to finish?
Passed 9 of 22 test cases with the skill, and 3 of 22 without it.
and 6 more in the full report

Tokens, turns and time describe resource use, not a dollar price.
By its own checks, 14 of 22 cases passed with the skill. The figures above use the run's stored verdicts, which until August 2026 were not always derived from the checks.

Give your agent this task. In testing, the model failed it without the skill and passed it with the skill.
We need to execute an ablation slice that takes 2 hours to compute. Should we run this command as a blocking synchronous shell call and wait for it to finish?
What to look for
Saved prompts and skills, pinned versions, and traces of this skill in your runs. DecimalAI does not run your agent.
Claude Code reads files from your project, so DecimalAI config does not apply there.
On Claude Agent SDK: save the skill to an agent here, set DECIMAL_API_KEY, and the same code uses it with no command to run. Changes you save reach the next run with no redeploy.
On OpenAI Agents: save the skill to an agent here, set DECIMAL_API_KEY, and the same code uses it with no command to run. Changes you save reach the next run with no redeploy.
On OpenAI SDK: save the skill to an agent here, set DECIMAL_API_KEY, and the same code uses it with no command to run. Changes you save reach the next run with no redeploy.
On Anthropic: save the skill to an agent here, set DECIMAL_API_KEY, and the same code uses it with no command to run. Changes you save reach the next run with no redeploy.
On Gemini API: save the skill to an agent here, set DECIMAL_API_KEY, and the same code uses it with no command to run. Changes you save reach the next run with no redeploy.
On LangChain: save the skill to an agent here, set DECIMAL_API_KEY, and the same code uses it with no command to run. Changes you save reach the next run with no redeploy.
On CrewAI: set DECIMAL_API_KEY and add decimalai.init(crewai=True) to record runs and skill use. The skill version stays in your repo.
On Google ADK: save the skill to an agent here, set DECIMAL_API_KEY, and the same code uses it with no command to run. Changes you save reach the next run with no redeploy.
On Pydantic AI: save the skill to an agent here, set DECIMAL_API_KEY, and the same code uses it with no command to run. Changes you save reach the next run with no redeploy.
On Deep Agents: set DECIMAL_API_KEY and add decimalai.init(langchain=True) to record runs and skill use. The skill version stays in your repo.
On Microsoft Agent Framework: set DECIMAL_API_KEY and add decimalai.init(otel=True, agent_name="support") to record runs and skill use. The skill version stays in your repo.
On Strands: set DECIMAL_API_KEY and add decimalai.init(otel=True, agent_name="support") to record runs and skill use. The skill version stays in your repo.
Editors read files from your project, so DecimalAI config does not apply there.
Anywhere else: record a use with decimalai.log_skill_activation() inside a trace.
One of 6 test cases the skill fixed. Same model, same prompt, with and without the skill.

| Checked | Without skill | With skill |

| Launches long-running trial slices in non-blocking background sessions to allow asynchronous monitoring. | Missed | Passed |
| Polls process status periodically using non-blocking log inspection rather than blocking the main execution thread. | Missed | Passed |
The instructions your model reads when the skill loads.
Use this skill when one or more follow-up runs are needed and the quest needs a coordinated evidence campaign.
This is the shared DeepScientist protocol for supplementary experiments after a durable result. Use the same route for:
For paper-facing work, treat “analysis campaign” broadly:
Do not assume a writing-facing campaign means “analysis only”.
Do not invent a separate experiment system for those cases.
bash_exec; do not use any other terminal path for slice execution, smoke tests, Git, Python, package-manager, or file-inspection commands.bash_exec for campaign slice commands so each run has a durable session id, quest-local log folder, and later read/list/kill control.artifact.interact(kind='milestone', reply_mode='threaded', ...) report.sage-clay: #E7E1D6, #B7A99A, #7F8F84 for the default aggregated campaign summarymist-stone: #F3EEE8, #D8D1C7, #8A9199 for conservative or uncertainty-heavy summariesdust-rose: #F2E9E6, #D8C3BC, #B88C8C only as a secondary accent when an extra comparison is necessaryMore skills from the same source and nearby in the registry, with their headline benchmark lift.
