What problem does it solve?
This Skill helps you detect training quality issues early so you do not waste GPU hours on runs that are going wrong (for example NaNs, loss divergence, or degrading evaluation metrics).
Core Features & Use Cases
- Periodically reviews WandB training signals: monitors loss trends, evaluation metric changes, learning-rate behavior, gradient norm stability, and NaN/Inf occurrences.
- Makes a risk-based decision: classifies signals as clearly bad, clearly fine, or unsure, escalating only when ambiguous.
- Safe fallback when WandB is unavailable: if WandB cannot be reached, it can fall back to reading a training log via SSH to avoid false assumptions.
Use case: You kick off a long multi-hour training job and want automated health checks that catch subtle quality failures before the run finishes.
Quick Start
Run the training-check skill for the WandB run path wandb-run-path and let it monitor metrics on its configured interval.
