Experiments

An experiment records a question, version, named conditions, operations, evidence state, and limitations. It does not replace operation plans or their records.

The catalogue can include a planned protocol before results exist. Later evidence states must point to one or more complete operation records.

How an experiment is retained

An experiment directory contains experiment.toml and one ordinary plan file per operation. Running the experiment writes a small experiment index plus one standard record for every operation.

Terminal window
julia --project=. bin/brainlesslab.jl check-experiment experiments/my-study
julia -t auto --project=. bin/brainlesslab.jl run-experiment \
experiments/my-study --root experiment-records

The protocol fixes the question and named conditions. The operation records retain exact submitted and resolved configurations, seeds, tables, summaries, provenance, and checksums.

This page is intentionally a small catalogue stub. The Research records page defines how a later phase can discover those records and add search, sorting, and filters.
