Experiment Tracker

What it does

Plan and track iterative experiments with goal, hypothesis, outcome, and learnings logged per attempt.

Procedure

When this skill is activated, Chalie follows these steps:

1. Ask the user to describe the goal of the experiment; use recall to surface any prior experiments on the same topic.
2. Ask what they have already tried; use recall to check whether prior attempts are already logged.
3. Use recall to surface any prior related experiments or context that might inform the approach.
4. Use write_file to draft a hypothesis and a concise plan: state the specific change to try, why it is expected to work, and how success will be measured.
5. Use write_file to create or update an experiment log with: goal, hypothesis, plan, attempt number, and expected outcome.
6. After the user executes the experiment and reports back, use write_file to record the actual outcome in the experiment log — categorise as Success, Partial, or Failure.
7. If the outcome was not a success, use write_file to log what was learned, update the hypothesis, and draft the next attempt’s plan — repeating from step 4.
8. When the experiment succeeds, produce a summary of what worked, why, and what to watch out for, so it is remembered.
