Yay, I had fun with it too!

IIUC the way you'd do that right now is just repeatedly recording the individual observations on a single commit, which effectively gives it a probability + the number of trials to do the Beta update. I don't yet have a CLI entrypoint to record a batch observation of (probability, num_trials), but it would be easy to add one

But ofc part of the magic is that git_bayesect's commit selection tells you how to be maximally sample efficient, so you'd only want to do a batch record if your test has high constant overhead
