/ar-status — Experiment Dashboard

Show experiment results, active loops, and progress across all experiments.

Usage

/ar-status                                  # Full dashboard
/ar-status engineering/api-speed            # Single experiment detail
/ar-status --domain engineering             # All experiments in a domain
/ar-status --format markdown                # Export as markdown
/ar-status --format csv --output results.csv  # Export as CSV

What It Does

Single experiment

python {skill_path}/scripts/log_results.py --experiment {domain}/{name}

Also check for active loop:

cat .autoresearch/{domain}/{name}/loop.json 2>/dev/null

If loop.json exists, show:

Active loop: every {interval} (cron ID: {id}, started: {date})

Domain view

python {skill_path}/scripts/log_results.py --domain {domain}

Full dashboard

python {skill_path}/scripts/log_results.py --dashboard

For each experiment, also check for loop.json and show loop status.

Export

# CSV
python {skill_path}/scripts/log_results.py --dashboard --format csv --output {file}

# Markdown
python {skill_path}/scripts/log_results.py --dashboard --format markdown --output {file}
