SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes assets (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

Designed to translate ambiguous hypotheses into structured, testable experiments by generating a complete manifest that defines experiments, variants, metrics, design, and gates.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Converts a recommended hypothesis into a YAML manifest including experiment_id, hypothesis, variants, metrics, design, gates, and evidence_refs.
  • Supports multiple design types (ab_test, feature_flag, concierge, wizard_of_oz, fake_door) and calculates plan parameters like duration_days, min_sample, and power.
  • Generates a ready-to-run manifest for tracking and governance across orgs and teams.

Quick Start

Input the recommended hypothesis and OKRs, and the skill will generate a complete manifest.yaml at the specified org path.

FAQPage Schema
How do I turn a hypothesis into a verifiable experiment design?

To turn a hypothesis into a verifiable experiment design, you input the recommended hypothesis and OKRs to generate a structured manifest.yaml. This manifest formalizes the experiment by defining specific variants, measurable metrics, and gate conditions required for validation.

What metrics and parameters are needed for AB-test planning?

AB-test planning requires defining measurable metrics, variants, and design parameters. The generated manifest calculates specific plan parameters including experiment duration in days, minimum sample size, and statistical power to ensure the test is properly sized.

Can I use feature flags and fake door tests for hypothesis validation?

Yes, you can use feature flags and fake door tests for hypothesis validation. The experiment design supports multiple types including ab_test, feature_flag, concierge, wizard_of_oz, and fake_door designs to apply to various validation scenarios.

What is a manifest.yaml file used for in experiment design?

A manifest.yaml file is used in experiment design to provide a ready-to-run structured output for tracking and governance across teams. It includes the experiment_id, hypothesis, variants, metrics, design, gates, and evidence_refs needed for measurable validation.

How do I calculate duration and sample size for an experiment?

To calculate duration and sample size for an experiment, the design process applies defined variants and metrics to compute plan parameters. It outputs the estimated duration_days, min_sample, and power needed to achieve measurable validation within the manifest.
