Data & ML Workflow Skill

Expert Intent

Streamline the development of data-centric features and machine learning models. This skill enforces high-fidelity data lineage, reproducible training sessions, and robust evaluation metrics to prevent "silent failures" in production models.

Pre-Checks & Context Intake

• Storage Audit: Identify where raw, processed, and versioned data is stored: Postgres, MongoDB, Redis, Kafka, S3/Blob, Vector DB.
• Tooling Check: confirm the ML framework (PyTorch, TensorFlow, Scikit-learn) and data processing tools.
• Lineage scan: Trace the data from intake to model input.
• Risk Level: Check for sensitivity or bias constraints in the High (Critical/Financial/Healthcare) project rules.

Expert Workflow (SOF)

1. Discovery & Intake: Analyze the source, schema, and quality of incoming data.
   • Requirement: profile the data for missing values and distribution shifts.
2. Preprocessing & Engineering: Clean, transform, and version datasets.
   • Requirement: Use immutable data versioning where possible.
3. Training & Modeling: Implement training loops with rigorous hyperparameter tracking.
   • Requirement: Capture loss curves, accuracy, and domain-specific metrics.
4. Evaluation & Inversion: Test the model against edge cases and "adversarial" inputs.
5. Deployment & Monitoring: Package for inference and define drift detection triggers.

Strict Guardrails

• LEAKAGE: Strictly forbid using "future" information or target data in the training set (lookahead bias).
• BIAS: Stop and ask if the data or model performance shows significant disparity across protected classes (if applicable to Financial, E-commerce, Education).
• DETERMINISM: Ensure training seeds and data splits are fixed for reproducibility.

Expected Output

• Reproducible preprocessing and training scripts.
• Detailed evaluation reports (Confusion matrices, POC curves, etc.).
• Performance baseline comparison against PROJECT_MEMORY.md.
