How do you keep small AI experiments reproducible?

When you test a prompt or workflow, what do you record so another contributor can understand the setup and repeat the experiment without adding too much process?

What I tried

I have started noting the goal, input, model settings, and a short result summary, but I would like a lightweight structure that stays useful over time.

I use a compact experiment note: the question, exact input, settings, expected signal, observed result, and one sentence about what I would try next. Keeping the template short makes it easier to complete consistently.

That structure sounds practical. I would also add a brief label for the experiment version so later changes to the prompt or settings remain easy to compare without turning the note into a full report.
