Individual skill

tao-artifacts

The contract home for TAO's SDK-free execution pipeline — authoritative JSON Schemas for the four typed artifacts (spec-bundle, job-record, results_dir layout, best_rec) plus the fixed job-status vocabulary and the nested-not-dotted spec rule. Use when authoring or validating a spec-bundle before submit, writing or reading a .tao/jobs job-record, resolving where results land, or consuming AutoML's best_rec.json. Trigger phrases include "validate the spec bundle", "job record schema", "status vocabulary", "results_dir layout", "best_rec schema".

# tao-artifacts

Four typed artifacts flow through every TAO job. Their schemas live **here and
nowhere else** — producers (model/data skills) and consumers (platform skills)
both validate against this skill's `references/`.

| Artifact | Schema | Produced by → consumed by |
|---|---|---|
| **spec-bundle** | `references/spec_bundle.schema.json` | model/data skill → platform skill (at the submit seam) |
| **job-record** | `references/job_record.schema.json` | `scripts/tao_job_record.py` (the ONLY writer) → any re-attaching agent/poller |
| **results_dir layout** | `references/results_dir.contract.md` | platform skill at submit → whoever collects outputs |
| **best_rec** | `references/best_rec.schema.json` | tao-run-automl adapter → DEFT warm-start |
