AD nemo-rl-brev-etiquette
Brev instance operating guidance for NeMo-RL agents working in /home/ubuntu/RL with limited workspace disk, a larger /ephemeral volume, and optional /home/ubuntu/RL/.env secrets. Use when running nemo-rl-auto-research campaigns, experiments, training jobs, model or dataset downloads, shared cache-heavy commands, log-producing runs, checkpoint generation, W&B or Hugging Face authenticated workflows, or any workflow that may create large files on Brev.

As a process D 45/100 · Unfinished process — weak spots: result and completion, when it triggers, inputs and preconditions
How to improve
- Your own cases (evals/evals.json, 4–6 real requests with expected answers): the full check would then run those instead of a model-drafted suite.
- A spec.yaml with trigger phrases and assertions — a behaviour contract for CI; `skilltest init` writes a template.

Process rating: all ten parameters 45/100
- 0Result and completion. Does not say what the result is
- 0Inputs and preconditions. Does not say what the process needs to start
- 0Failures and branches. Linear process with no failure handling
- 20When it triggers. No condition that starts the skill
- 30Running it twice. 3 mutating operations with no state check
- 60Tools and files. Uses tools (git) that frontmatter does not declare
- 100Steps. 20 steps
- 100Consistency. Name and required fields are in place
- 100Execution cost. Instruction body is 1132 tokens
- 100Progress reporting. Reports progress
Everything here is measured from the skill text rather than judged by a model, so the numbers are checkable. A parameter weighs more when it is a more common reason for the process to stall.
Quality signals
- +5Description has no quoted example phrases that should trigger the skill
- +4Description does not say when NOT to use the skill (false activations)
- +3Output format is not stated: the model decides each time
- -4Absolute local paths (C:\Users, /home/…): not portable
- +2Single-language instructions
- +3Description length 454: enough signal without eating the budget
- +4Structure: 6 headings
- +3Step-by-step instructions: 20 items
- +4Has examples (2 code blocks)
- +1License stated
