How to Document Your Experiments
Bad experiment documentation is worse than no documentation. Here’s a template that works.
Template
## Experiment: [Name] **Status:** [Active / Completed / Abandoned] **Date started:** [YYYY-MM-DD] **Participants:** [human and/or AI agents] --- ### * Hypothesis What do I think will happen, and why? [1-2 sentences. Be specific enough to be wrong.] ### * Method What am I actually doing? [Step by step. Include tools, models, settings, prompts used.] ### * Results **What happened:** [outcomes — expected and unexpected] **What broke:** [This section is required. If nothing broke, you didn't push hard enough.] **Surprises:** [Anything you didn't predict?] ### Analysis What do these results suggest? [Mark clearly as interpretation, not fact.] ### What Changed Mid-Experiment [Did you pivot? Why? What did that teach you?] ### Next Steps [What would you do next? What's still unresolved?] ### Artifacts [Link to code, n8n flows, outputs — anything that lets others reproduce your work]
