Deep Learning Book is an agent skill from alirezarezvani/claude-skills. Study companion and working knowledge base for the Deep Learning textbook by Goodfellow, Bengio & Courville (MIT Press, 2016), read free at deeplearningbook.org. Indexes all 20 chapters, carries a 2016-to-2026 delta layer naming what the book got right, what was superseded (transformers, AdamW, diffusion, double descent) and what still holds, and ships four deterministic tools: a prerequisite-aware reading-path planner, a training-failure diagnostic, a capacity-and-regularization planner, and a…
Its SKILL.md is about 2.9k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 38 other files, including scripts, reference files and assets (for example `assets/chapter_worksheet.md`, `assets/example_layer_spec.json` and `assets/study_log_template.md`).
It sits in AI & LLM Engineering, covering Deep learning and Translation. The repository describes itself as: 380 Claude Code skills & agent skills & plugins (30+ Agents, 70+ custom commands, 380+ skills, customizable references, scripts)for Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI, Cursor, and 8… The licence is MIT.

Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

Ships 1 file in scripts/, which the agent can run.

Deep Learning Book loads about 2.9k tokens when it runs, and up to ~8.3k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 200 tokens; SKILL.md has 1,126 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

This is a companion, not a copy. The book is copyrighted, and its site states that the HTML-only format exists to discourage copying under the authors' MIT Press contract. Nothing here reproduces its text. Every chapter file is original synthesis — what the chapter establishes, how to use it, where it has aged — plus a link to the official chapter. Read the book at the link; use this to navigate it, keep it current, and turn it into decisions. See references/rights_and_use.md.

through the Topic Index, then that chapter file is read before answering.chNN — load that chapter's file.scripts/reading_path_planner.py.When asked about something outside these 20 chapters, say so and route to the delta reference rather than improvising the book's position on material published after it.
Name the task, the performance measure, and the experience in one sentence before any model code. Most failed projects failed at P: an unstated metric, or a proxy whose relationship to the real objective was never checked.
Choose the output distribution, then take its negative log. Gaussian → MSE, Bernoulli → binary cross-entropy, categorical → cross-entropy, Laplace → MAE. "Which loss?" is always the question "which distribution?" in disguise. Modern contrastive and preference objectives sit outside this frame — a real limit of the book, not a gap in your understanding.
D(p‖q) ≠ D(q‖p). Forward KL is mode-covering (blurry averages); reverse KL is mode-seeking (sharp but partial). This single fact predicts VAE blur, GAN mode collapse, and the characteristic over-confidence of mean-field variational posteriors.
High training error → capacity or optimization is the bottleneck; more data will not help.
Low training error with a large validation gap → data or regularization. This is the highest-value
heuristic in the book. scripts/training_diagnostics.py runs it.
Regularization trades variance for bias. But the classical U-shaped capacity curve is incomplete: past the interpolation threshold, test error can fall again (double descent, 2019–2020, post-dating the book). Practical consequence: when a large model overfits, try more data, more regularization or longer training before shrinking it.
Convolution asserts translation equivariance and locality. Recurrence asserts that the past compresses into a state. A distributed representation asserts that factors combine combinatorially. When the assertion is false, the architecture cannot be rescued by tuning — and when it is true, it beats capacity. This is also why Vision Transformers need more data than ConvNets: they discard the prior and buy it back with examples.
Backprop is the chain rule scheduled well: one forward-pass-equivalent of compute, and memory proportional to stored activations. Depth fails through vanishing/exploding gradients and ill-conditioning, which is why residual connections, normalization and clipping exist.
For undirected models, the likelihood gradient needs samples from the model itself. Four escape routes: sample it (CD/PCD), sidestep it algebraically (pseudolikelihood, score matching), learn around it (NCE), or estimate it for evaluation (AIS). Score matching's descendants are today's diffusion models — which is why Part III repays reading even though its models did not survive.
Gradient norm exploding → clip. Norm large but loss flat → ill-conditioning. Norm near zero with high loss → saturation or dead units. NaN → numerics first. Change one thing per experiment.

This companion covers the 2016 edition's 20 chapters and the delta between them and 2026
practice. It does not cover: reinforcement learning beyond passing mention, LLM training
infrastructure, RLHF/DPO alignment, agentic systems, MLOps tooling, or fairness and safety
evaluation — none of which the book treats. For production ML engineering use
engineering-team/senior-ml-engineer; for LLM cost work use engineering/llm-cost-optimizer.
When a question lands outside the book, say the book does not cover it and cite the delta reference for what replaced its position. A companion that quietly extrapolates is worse than one that names its boundary.

Study companion and working knowledge base for the Deep Learning textbook by Goodfellow, Bengio & Courville (MIT Press, 2016), read free at deeplearningbook.org. Deep Learning Book is an agent skill from alirezarezvani/claude-skills.org.
Deep Learning Book fits situations like: teaching this book; planning a route through it; deciding whether a chapters advice is still current; translating its math into a training decision.
Run `npx skills add alirezarezvani/claude-skills --skill deep-learning-book -a claude-code`. Or copy the skill folder (engineering/deep-learning-book/skills/deep-learning-book in alirezarezvani/claude-skills) into .claude/skills/deep-learning-book in your project. Claude Code loads it when a task matches its description.
Run `npx skills add alirezarezvani/claude-skills --skill deep-learning-book -a codex`. Or copy the skill folder (engineering/deep-learning-book/skills/deep-learning-book in alirezarezvani/claude-skills) into .agents/skills/deep-learning-book in your project. Codex loads it when a task matches its description.
Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add alirezarezvani/claude-skills --skill deep-learning-book -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/deep-learning-book, .gemini/skills/deep-learning-book, .github/skills/deep-learning-book and .opencode/skills/deep-learning-book in your project.
Going by SKILL.md and its folder, Deep Learning Book needs the command-line tools its instructions call (python3). Our summary lists: Python 3.
SKILL.md names 1 domain. As links in the text: deeplearningbook.org. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.
Our automated static check of SKILL.md found no risky patterns, such as piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files or hidden Unicode. It is not a guarantee. The check reads SKILL.md only: the scripts in the folder are not scanned, so read them before running anything.
Deep Learning Book is published under the MIT licence (declared in SKILL.md). It allows redistribution, so the full SKILL.md is shown on this page.
About 2.9k tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 11k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full. Its references folder adds about 5.4k tokens, read only when the agent opens those files.
Skills that share tags, products or a category with Deep Learning Book: Paddle Design Compiler (PaddlePaddle/Paddle, 24k stars), Neuron Nki Writing (uw-syfi/vibesys, 103 stars), Add Uint Support (pytorch/pytorch, 104k stars) and Segment Anything Model Guide (Orchestra-Research/AI-Research-SKILLs, 13k stars). The comparison table on this page puts their stars, adoption, token cost, safety result and licence side by side.
