Real LLM grading for this pageLLM grading (this page):

The cross-discipline capstone. You take a trained model from the Data Science pillar (P5) and apply the whole Production Engineering discipline to it, end to end — the proof that the P35 → P36 → P37 skills transfer to a real artefact from another discipline. Everything runs in Pyodide: the model is given (a deterministic stub for a fitted pipeline), and the CI and request-pipeline simulators are inlined, so you engineer the model without a kernel.

Step 1 / 4The artefact you're handed
ⓘ Concept: Engineer the model, don't rebuild it
You're handed a fitted P5 model as a given artefact (a deterministic predict here). The modelling is P5's job; your job is to make it shippable — packaged, gated, observable — the same production discipline you built for a library, now applied to a model.

Why it matters — Most production ML work is the engineering around a model, not the modelling — so the model is given, and the discipline is everything that makes it shippable and observable.

4 graded rungs · ~90 min

Package the model, gate it in CI on a quality floor, make its serving observable, then assemble a production-ready model service in the capstone project.

Rung 1 — package the model (P35)

That's the discipline's flagship transfer task: a Data Science model, engineered like production Python — packaged, gated, observed, and resilient.
