What it does

Paro Evidence is an agent skill from zunor/paro. Design or audit formal Paro performance claims: release acceptance, cross-engine parity, model calibration certification or non-inferiority. Not for routine exploration; use paro-benchmark there.

Its SKILL.md is about 1k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files (for example `agents/openai.yaml`).

It sits in Databases, covering Performance reviews and Vector databases. It works with SQL, PostgreSQL and Rust. The repository describes itself as: An AI-native multi-model database unifying SQL, vector, full-text, graph, and sandboxed Python — for transactional, analytical, and agent workloads. The licence is Apache-2.0.

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

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 4afe117. 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

Paro Evidence loads about 1k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 52 tokens; SKILL.md has 465 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~52
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1k

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.

Design or audit formal Paro performance claims: release acceptance, cross-engine parity, model calibration certification or non-inferiority. Not for routine exploration; use paro-benchmark there.

Paro formal evidence

Daily iteration uses paro-benchmark. Use this workflow only for a requested formal claim or its audit. Review-only work does not authorize new runs. Never bless results or evolve a policy here.

Register, collect, decide

  1. Inspect the selected checkout and existing evidence. Before confirmatory sampling, version a short registration: hypothesis/intervention, arms, independent sampling unit, sample size/power, numeric thresholds, exclusions, uncertainty, coverage/held-out rules, resources and finite storage budget. Existing pilots cannot be retrospectively preregistered.
  2. Pin source/dirty content, binary/build, harness, SQL/schema/data/metadata, protocol, cache regime, DOP/memory and actual verification/observers. Follow declared competitor baseline: requirements constrain the version; the registration also identifies actual native binaries/extensions/settings. Upgrades create a new comparison.
  3. Use maintained collectors with balanced/interleaved blocks. Treat the fresh process/block as the independent unit when appropriate, not each repeated warm timing. Normal measurements and diagnostic captures remain separate.
  4. Validate complete types, multiplicities and required ordering outside timing. Keep every failure, retry, valid slow sample and exclusion. Explicitly bounded independent numerical certificates are not strict equality.
  5. Evaluate the registered rule, including uncertainty/tails/coverage. A small median alone is not certification. Report missing evidence or confounding as Uncovered/Incomparable/NotCertified, not zero or an invented receipt.

Comparison validity

  • Do not infer causal speedups from unrelated report ratios or sums/differences of cohort medians. A decomposition needs direct same-lifecycle observations.
  • Match inputs, admitted plan/resources, node/port/phase and units. Equal plan fingerprints locate artifacts; they are not semantic equivalence proofs. A diagnostic mismatch blocks joint attribution, not preservation of valid time.
  • Model comparisons must share an applicable objective/fact/resource context. A partial order has incomparable candidates: rank correlation is descriptive, not a pruning proof. Use independent small-region enumeration, measured dominance violations and selection regret for the decisions actually made.
  • Changing a threshold/exclusion after seeing outcomes requires a disclosed amendment and fresh confirmation where it changes the decision.

Bounded local evidence, small durable decisions

Keep raw runs in ignored benchmark/runs/<run-id>/ or a declared external root, not in Git. Share campaign identities, retain samples/receipts per query/arm cell and reference each bounded compile capture once. Use the actual typed RunOutput/validator limits; don't duplicate a capacity formula in prose. Register a finite total budget and stop collection when exhausted; don't discard slow samples or gzip an oversized event stream to pass a limit.

Preserve the complete raw run through review. If long-term reproducibility needs retention, explicitly name an approved artifact location, checksum and retention owner; without retained raw data, a historical decision is not a currently re-auditable certification. Git normally gets at most a page of conclusion/registration with identities, uncertainty, commands and limitations. Correctness fixtures belong in maintained tests/corpora, not historical reports.

Stop confirmatory collection on result errors, identity drift, uncontrolled interference or missing required evidence. Report partial results honestly. Neither this workflow nor a successful check authorizes baseline changes, history rewriting, automatic deletion, or publication.
