What it does

Together Core Workflow A is an agent skill from jeremylongshore/tons-of-skills-marketplace. Prepare, submit, monitor, and disposition a Together AI fine-tuning job using SDK v2, validated training data, explicit cost approval, and separate deployment verification. Use when adapting a model to custom examples or preferences. Trigger with "Together fine-tune", "train a Together model", or "Together DPO job".

Its SKILL.md is about 1.1k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files, including reference files (for example `references/official-docs.md`). Compatibility notes: Designed for Claude Code; submission requires network access, a project key, training data, and funded Together AI usage

It sits in AI & LLM Engineering, covering Fine-tuning and Deployment. It works with Together AI. 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.

When your agent uses it

  • Adapting a model to custom examples
  • With Together fine-tune
  • Train a Together model
  • Together DPO job

Example prompts

  • “Together fine-tune”
  • “train a Together model”
  • “Together DPO job”
  • “/together-core-workflow-a”

Requirements

  • Python 3
  • A credential in TOGETHER_API_KEY
  • Compatibility (from SKILL.md): Designed for Claude Code; submission requires network access, a project key, training data, and funded Together AI usage
  • Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Read, Glob, Grep, WebFetch, Write, Edit

Workflow steps

6 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Define the target behavior, baseline evaluation, tuning method, and success threshold.
  2. Validate format, licenses, consent, duplication, leakage, train/validation separation, and token distribution.
  3. Confirm the base model is currently tunable and estimate cost before upload.
  4. Upload with the fine-tune purpose and persist the returned file ID in a redacted manifest.
  5. Submit only after approval; persist job ID, parameters, dataset hash, owner, and cancellation threshold.
  6. Poll boundedly, review events/checkpoints, evaluate the output, and hand deployment off separately.

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
    • Glob
    • Grep
    • WebFetch
    • Write
    • Edit

    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

    Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):

    • docs.together.ai
    • github.com

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

  • Credentials

    Names these keys or tokens, usually read from environment variables:

    • TOGETHER_API_KEY

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

  • Compatibility

    Designed for Claude Code; submission requires network access, a project key, training data, and funded Together AI usage

    From compatibility in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

Context cost

Together Core Workflow A loads about 1.1k tokens when it runs, and up to ~1.8k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 86 tokens; SKILL.md has 406 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~86
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.1k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~1.8k

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.

Together AI Fine-Tuning Workflow

Overview

This skill governs the expensive path from dataset qualification through an asynchronous fine-tune job and a separately approved serving handoff.

Prerequisites

  • A supported base model and tuning method confirmed in current Together documentation
  • Sanitized, licensed training and optional validation JSONL
  • Dataset-quality and holdout criteria
  • A cost ceiling, job owner, cancellation rule, and deployment decision owner

Tool Discipline

Use Read, Glob, and Grep to inspect data schemas, training configuration, and existing evaluations. Use WebFetch for current supported models and job parameters. Use Write or Edit only for approved data-validation, job-manifest, or evaluation files; never copy raw sensitive data into the skill output.

Current Contract

  • Use Together Python SDK v2 and client.files.upload() plus client.fine_tuning.create().
  • The CLI accepts a file ID or local path and reports an estimated price before confirmation.
  • Prefer LoRA unless full tuning is justified; choose SFT or DPO from the behavior objective.
  • A completed training job does not automatically deploy a model. Serving is a separate endpoint decision.

Authentication

Fine-tuning APIs use the project-scoped TOGETHER_API_KEY Bearer credential. A W&B key, private Hugging Face token, or dataset-store credential is separate and must be scoped, stored, and redacted independently.

Instructions

  1. Define the target behavior, baseline evaluation, tuning method, and success threshold.
  2. Validate format, licenses, consent, duplication, leakage, train/validation separation, and token distribution.
  3. Confirm the base model is currently tunable and estimate cost before upload.
  4. Upload with the fine-tune purpose and persist the returned file ID in a redacted manifest.
  5. Submit only after approval; persist job ID, parameters, dataset hash, owner, and cancellation threshold.
  6. Poll boundedly, review events/checkpoints, evaluate the output, and hand deployment off separately.

Approval Boundaries

Do not upload data or confirm a paid job without dataset authority and cost approval. Do not deploy the resulting model or delete training artifacts automatically.

Output

Return dataset checks, base model, method, estimated/approved cost, file and job references, terminal state, evaluation delta, and deployment recommendation.

Error Handling

ConditionResponse
Dataset validation failsStop before upload and report line-level categories without sensitive rows.
Base model unsupportedRe-resolve the fine-tuning catalog; do not substitute silently.
Job cost exceeds ceilingDo not confirm; reduce scope or seek approval.
Job fails or stallsCapture events, stop bounded polling, and preserve IDs for support.

Examples

The example below shows the minimum redacted evidence expected from a successful invocation of this operator workflow.

text
method=lora-sft; data=validated; estimate=approved; job=ft-redacted; deploy=not-started
