What it does

Sensys Experiments is an agent skill from brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills. Use when designing or auditing a SenSys evaluation — energy and low-power measurement with a named instrument, real-testbed and deployment realism, honest sensor ground truth, on-device latency and memory, and same-hardware baselines, so the evidence meets SenSys's built-and-measured bar rather than a simulation or offline-benchmark one.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.4k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in DevOps & Cloud, covering Deployment. The repository describes itself as: Journal-specific Claude Code/Codex skill packs covering mainstream journals — AER, QJE, Nature, Cell, 管理世界, 经济研究 & 200+ more — your fast track to getting published. | 覆盖主流期刊的… The licence is MIT.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 932eb23. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

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

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Sensys Experiments loads about 1.4k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 90 tokens; SKILL.md has 517 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~90
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.4k

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.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

description
Use when designing or auditing a SenSys evaluation — energy and low-power measurement with a named instrument, real-testbed and deployment realism, honest sensor ground truth, on-device latency and memory, and same-hardware baselines, so the evidence meets SenSys's built-and-measured bar rather than a simulation or offline-benchmark one.

SenSys Experiments

At SenSys the evaluation is the contribution's proof. A mechanism is only as strong as the measurements that show it behaving on real hardware, under real energy budgets, against honest ground truth. This skill audits an evaluation for the failure modes SenSys reviewers flag first: unmeasured energy, simulation standing in for deployment, and accuracy scored against an unstated truth.

The five measurement axes

Every SenSys evaluation should be explicit about these; a gap in any one is a reviewer question.

AxisWhat to reportCommon failure
Energy / powerEnergy per operation, average current (µA/mA), duty cycle — with instrument + sampling rate + wake/sleep boundaries"Low-power" as an adjective; no method
LatencyOn-device latency as a distribution (median, tail), not a single numberOne workstation timing, no tail
Accuracy vs. ground truthMetric plus how truth was obtained and its own errorAccuracy with unstated reference
Deployment realismNode count, placement, environment, duration, uptime/failuresOne-run bench result called a deployment
Footprint (embedded AI)Quantized model size, RAM/flash peak on the actual MCUOffline model size on a workstation

Measure energy like it is the headline

Because it is. State the instrument (source-meter, shunt + DAQ, or power monitor), its sampling rate, and the boundaries of what you integrated (does "energy per inference" include sensor acquisition and radio, or only compute?). Report energy with the same rigor as a latency CDF — ideally a power trace annotated with the phases it covers.

text
Energy reporting template (put the method in the paper, not just the number):
  Instrument:     Keithley/Otii/INA-class monitor, model + firmware
  Sampling rate:  e.g. 10 kHz; enough to resolve the wake spike
  Integration:    from sensor-on to label-out; radio TX included? Y/N
  Boundaries:     sleep floor measured separately; not inferred from datasheet
  Report:         energy/op + duty cycle + projected lifetime with battery/harvester spec

A projected battery life or harvesting budget must be derived from measured draw, not from a datasheet's nominal current — reviewers who have deployed will catch the difference.

Ground truth is a first-class artifact

An accuracy number is only as trustworthy as the truth it is scored against. State how reference labels were obtained — a reference instrument, a controlled stimulus, or a documented human annotation protocol — and the truth's own uncertainty. Sensor experiments where "ground truth" is another uncalibrated sensor, or where labels were assigned by the authors without a protocol, invite exactly the challenge that sinks the result in review.

Deployment vs. bench, kept separate

Bench experiments control variables to isolate a mechanism; deployments expose it to reality. Report both and label which is which. A deployment carries node count, placement, environmental conditions, duration, and honest uptime/failure accounting — a node that died on day 3 is data, not an embarrassment to hide. A single controlled bench run is not a deployment claim.

Baselines on the same hardware

Compare against the right prior system on the same platform, tuned as well as your own. An apples-to-oranges comparison — your system on an optimized MCU against a baseline you ran untuned, or against numbers copied from a paper that used different silicon — is the most common reviewer objection. If you must cite cross-hardware numbers, say so and bound the comparison.

Intermittent power and harvesting

For batteryless or energy-harvesting systems, the evaluation must include the energy source's behavior: the harvest trace (indoor light, RF, vibration), the capacitor/energy-buffer sizing, and behavior across power failures. A harvesting claim without the input-energy conditions is not reproducible even with the code (see sensys-reproducibility).

Audit checklist

text
[ ] Energy reported with instrument + sampling rate + integration boundaries.
[ ] Latency as a distribution (median + tail), measured on the target device.
[ ] Accuracy paired with ground-truth provenance and the truth's own error.
[ ] Deployment: node count, environment, duration, uptime/failures stated.
[ ] Baselines run on the same hardware, tuned; cross-hardware numbers flagged.
[ ] Embedded-AI: quantized size + RAM/flash peak on the actual MCU.
[ ] Harvesting: input-energy trace + buffer sizing + power-failure behavior.
[ ] No simulation-only or single-run claim standing in for deployed behavior.

Output format

text
[Axes]     which of the five measurement axes are covered / missing
[Energy]   method stated? instrument + sampling rate + boundaries — pass/gap
[Truth]    ground-truth provenance and its error — pass/gap
[Deploy]   deployment realism + honest uptime — pass/gap
[Baseline] same-hardware, tuned comparison — pass/gap
[Open]     the single measurement whose absence most weakens the paper
