What problem does it solve?
This Skill helps operators assemble a complete zicato tournament contract without overlooking evaluation cost, statistical noise, holdout leakage, or the epoch changes caused by contract edits.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Contract Assembly: Guides operators through tournament structure, field size, replicates, board design, train/holdout splitting, proposer configuration, scoring weights, and promotion gates.
- Soundness and Cost Controls: Estimates board-run costs, measures the noise floor with preflight, validates promotion margins, and explains the consequences of evidence gates, screening, placebo challengers, and holdout confirmation.
- Safe Draft Workflow: Keeps changes in a draft, previews diffs, supports named variants and undo, batches contract edits, and applies only after explicit confirmation because applying rolls the epoch.
- Use Case: Help an operator configure a small gauntlet tournament with a discriminating board, a 30% holdout, an evidence-aware promotion gate, and a cost estimate before committing the contract.
Quick Start
Ask the copilot to draft a zicato tournament contract for a small gauntlet evaluation, preflight its noise floor, estimate its cost, and prepare it for confirmation without launching the evolution loop.
