GPU training run failed error 'CUDA out of memory' logged as NaN loss in experiment tracker

CUDA out of memory and a NaN loss in the tracker are two symptoms of one event more often than two bugs: the allocation failure or a recovery path left the loss computation producing NaN for steps the tracker faithfully recorded. Use when a GPU training run whose tracked loss turns to NaN. Not for a genuine numerical …

agent hallucinating significance for a 0.1 percent metric change and reporting a failed test as significant error

Compute significance from the actual seed values or do not claim it: a 0.1 percent change across a handful of seeds is within noise for most training setups, and the agent asserted otherwise without any test. Use when an agent reporting experiment outcomes and their significance. Not for a genuinely significant tiny c…

agent failed to notice metric direction error and flagged lower loss as a regression failure

Carry direction with the metric everywhere: lower-is-better and higher-is-better must be metadata the comparison reads, not knowledge the agent improvises per run. Use when an agent judging regressions across experiment metrics. Not for a metric whose direction genuinely flips by context, such as a calibration error t…

agent failed to flag a regression when val loss spiked and the comparison error went unnoticed

Debug the comparison before trusting the silence: the agent missed the regression because its check compared the wrong pair, the wrong metric direction, or averaged the spike away. Use when an agent watching validation loss across runs for regressions. Not for a regression in a metric the agent was never configured to…

agent hallucinating best checkpoint selection and picking a failed run as the winner error

Select the winner from verified terminal states only: the agent picked a failed run because it ranked by a partial or default metric value without checking the run's status. Use when an agent choosing the best checkpoint or run for promotion. Not for a run marked failed that actually produced the best valid checkpoint…

agent loop detected: agent kept flagging the same regression on every poll and failed to deduplicate alerts error

Deduplicate alerts by the identity of what they report: the agent re-flagged the same regression every poll because it kept no record of alerting. Use when an agent polling runs and alerting on regressions. Not for a genuinely worsening regression that should re-alert, where the dedupe must be change-aware rather than…

context overflow when agent tried to diff full run artifacts and the diff failed with a length error

Diff with tools, not with attention: artifacts such as configs, metric files, and logs should be diffed by a diff program over local copies, and the agent should read only the resulting hunks. Use when an agent comparing artifacts between two experiment runs. Not for a semantic diff, such as comparing model outputs, w…

agent loop detected: agent kept re-querying the same finished run and failed to mark it complete

Break the loop with a terminal-state check the agent trusts: it kept re-querying because its completion test never matched, usually comparing status strings case-sensitively, checking a field the API returns under another name, or polling a stale cached response. Use when an agent waiting on MLflow or tracker runs to …

monte carlo style anomaly alert failed: volume anomaly detection error threshold breached

Validate the breach against raw counts before paging anyone: query the table's daily row counts for the last thirty days, check whether the drop or spike aligns with a load incident, a holiday, or a monitor baseline trained on an abnormal week, and only then tune the threshold or retrain the baseline. Use when a volum…
