What it does

Building Classification Models is an agent skill from jeremylongshore/tons-of-skills-marketplace. Build and evaluate classification models for supervised learning tasks with labeled data. Use when requesting "build a classifier", "create classification model", or "train classifier". Trigger with relevant phrases based on skill purpose.

Its SKILL.md is about 960 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 7 other files, including scripts, reference files and assets (for example `assets/README.md`, `assets/model_config_template.json` and `references/README.md`). Compatibility notes: Designed for Claude Code

It sits in Data & Analytics, covering Machine learning. The repository describes itself as: Model-agnostic agent-skills platform with a harness-free canonical layer, verified adapters, and the ccpi package manager. Explore at tonsofskills.com. The licence is MIT.

Requirements

  • Python 3
  • Compatibility (from SKILL.md): Designed for Claude Code

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit cfae287. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves these tools, so the agent can use them without asking each time:

    • Read
    • Write
    • Edit
    • Grep
    • Glob
    • Bash(cmd:*)

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

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

    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

Building Classification Models loads about 963 tokens when it runs, and up to ~981 if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 68 tokens; SKILL.md has 439 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~68
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~963
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~981

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); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.

Classification Model Builder

Build and evaluate classification models for supervised learning tasks with labeled data.

Overview

This skill empowers Claude to efficiently build and deploy classification models. It automates the process of model selection, training, and evaluation, providing users with a robust and reliable classification solution. The skill also provides insights into model performance and suggests potential improvements.

How It Works

  1. Context Analysis: Claude analyzes the user's request, identifying the dataset, target variable, and any specific requirements for the classification model.
  2. Model Generation: The skill utilizes the classification-model-builder plugin to generate code for training a classification model based on the identified dataset and requirements. This includes data preprocessing, feature selection, model selection, and hyperparameter tuning.
  3. Evaluation and Reporting: The generated model is trained and evaluated using appropriate metrics (e.g., accuracy, precision, recall, F1-score). Performance metrics and insights are then provided to the user.

When to Use This Skill

This skill activates when you need to:

  • Build a classification model from a given dataset.
  • Train a classifier to predict categorical outcomes.
  • Evaluate the performance of a classification model.

Examples

Example 1: Building a Spam Classifier

User request: "Build a classifier to detect spam emails using this dataset."

The skill will:

  1. Analyze the provided email dataset to identify features and the target variable (spam/not spam).
  2. Generate Python code using the classification-model-builder plugin to train a spam classification model, including data cleaning, feature extraction, and model selection.

Example 2: Predicting Customer Churn

User request: "Create a classification model to predict customer churn using customer data."

The skill will:

  1. Analyze the customer data to identify relevant features and the churn status.
  2. Generate code to build a classification model for churn prediction, including data validation, model training, and performance reporting.

Best Practices

  • Data Quality: Ensure the input data is clean and preprocessed before training the model.
  • Model Selection: Choose the appropriate classification algorithm based on the characteristics of the data and the specific requirements of the task.
  • Hyperparameter Tuning: Optimize the model's hyperparameters to achieve the best possible performance.

Integration

This skill integrates with the classification-model-builder plugin to automate the model building process. It can also be used in conjunction with other plugins for data analysis and visualization.

Prerequisites

  • Appropriate file access permissions
  • Required dependencies installed

Instructions

  1. Invoke this skill when the trigger conditions are met
  2. Provide necessary context and parameters
  3. Review the generated output
  4. Apply modifications as needed

Output

The skill produces structured output relevant to the task.

Error Handling

  • Invalid input: Prompts for correction
  • Missing dependencies: Lists required components
  • Permission errors: Suggests remediation steps
