Lab Notes is a production-ready Claude Code skill (quality score 70/100) in the research-methods sub-category. It ships as a SKILL.md file that Claude Code auto-discovers under ~/.claude/skills/lab-notes/ and loads when your prompt matches the skill's trigger.
When to invoke it: Use when starting experiments, planning features with hypothesis-first approach, checking experiment status, logging observations, or wrapping up trials. Triggers: start an experiment, new trial, begin experiment, what experiments are running, check experiment status, wrap up the experiment, log observation, experiment verdict, plan a feature, explore an idea, /lab-notes.
The Lab Notes skill is built for researchers, data scientists, academics, and analysts working with complex data and scientific literature. It is part of the open ClaudSkills registry, a community-curated catalog of 15,000+ capabilities you can install for Claude Code — the Claude CLI agent.
