Survey the Laboratory
Walk through every experiment in the lab, discover new runs, and report what's changed.
Steps
- Call
mcp__distillate__list_projects to get all tracked experiments
- For each project with a valid path, call
mcp__distillate__scan_project to discover new runs
- For projects with active sessions, check status via
mcp__distillate__manage_session with action="status"
- Compare results across projects — identify which experiments are improving fastest
- Report findings:
- New runs discovered (per project)
- Best metrics achieved and whether goals are met
- Active sessions and their progress
- Which experiments are stalled vs. making progress
- Recommend next actions: continue promising experiments, steer stalled ones, or start fresh directions
