What happens if a repository clone fails?

By default, the script records failures in the references/index.md file. You can also use a --strict flag to force the script to stop on the first clone failure.

Can I specify a custom root directory for my experiment?

Yes, the skill allows you to define an optional root directory path where the experiment workspace should be created, defaulting to your current directory.

How do I define the project goal?

You provide a 1-3 sentence summary of what you want to learn or build, which is then written into an AGENTS.md file as a persistent reference for your session.

What does the experiment-scaffold skill do?

It automates the setup of a new experiment directory, including git initialization, goal documentation (AGENTS.md), and cloning reference repositories into a structured folder.

Where are reference repositories stored?

Repositories are cloned into a specific references/repos/ directory which is automatically added to the project's .gitignore file to keep your workspace clean.

생산성 및 워크플로

Automates the creation of structured research and experiment workspaces with integrated documentation and repository cloning.

소개

The experiment-scaffold skill streamlines the initial phase of any research or prototyping project by automatically generating a consistent directory structure for 'scratch' work. It initializes a Git repository, creates a central goal document (AGENTS.md), and organizes references including cloned GitHub repositories, documentation links, and project notes. This skill is ideal for developers and researchers who want to quickly spin up isolated environments for testing new ideas while maintaining a clean, documented workspace without the overhead of manual configuration.
