# Iterate Ml Experiment

> Owns the iteration loop on top of an ML workspace: the journal/JOURNAL.md index and the per-experiment journal/NNshortname.md design notes that must be drafted and approved by the user before experiments/NNshortname.py is created. Drives the propose → iterate → approve → implement → record loop; dispatches to iterate-from-skore / iterate-from-user for sourcing. TRIGGER — any of: - A session opens in an ML workspace (whether or not journal/ exists yet — missing/placeholder → bootstrap mode). - User says "what's next", "resume", "where were we", "let's iterate", "propose next", "first baseline". - About to create a new experiments/NN.py (the matching journal/NN.md must exist and be approved first). - User wants to record an outcome from a finished run. - User asks to compare past experiments or review what's been tried ("compare X and Y", "where are we?"). SKIP when: no journal/ yet AND no workspace scaffold (route to organize-ml-workspace); the work is mechanical inside pipeline.py / evaluate.py / data.py with no journal-level implication (owned by build-ml-pipeline / evaluate-ml-pipeline); the user asks for a symbol lookup (python-api); the user is diagnosing a single skore report without a "what next" framing (evaluate-ml-pipeline). HOW TO USE: read journal/JOURNAL.md first, classify the turn via the Mode picker (table near the top), then read only the matching section. Sibling skills open just-in-time when a step requires them — do not pre-read all sibling skills at session start. Design notes are the only artifact this skill writes; read, compare, and overview modes don't write.
