Evolve any installed skill by generating four variations along separate theses (better inputs / sharper output / more robust / rethink), scoring them on a weighted rubric, and applying the winner. Never downgrades a working skill — aborts cleanly if no variation improves the original. Use when an installed skill is producing low-signal output, hitting deprecated APIs, or feels stale. Triggers: "improve this skill", "evolve $skill", "auto-research my X", "regenerate variations".

Quality

Content

78%Weight 40%Scale 1-5

Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.

A terse, well-structured meta-skill with clear safety guarantees, but its actionability is limited because the generation and scoring mechanics are described abstractly rather than with executable detail.

Suggestions

Specify how the four variations are generated (e.g., prompt template, model, parallel invocation) so the core mechanism is reproducible rather than implied.

Include the actual scoring rubric criteria per axis, not just the weights, so scoring is concrete and consistent across runs.

Add a short numbered workflow (generate → score → compare to original → apply or abort) to make the sequence and checkpoints explicit.

DimensionReasoningScore

Conciseness

Lean ~48-line body using tables and bullets, assuming Claude's competence with no concept over-explanation; nearly every token earns its place.

5 / 5

Actionability

Concrete specifics exist (AUTORESEARCH_NO_IMPROVEMENT code, autoresearch/${target} branch, SKILL.md.before-autoresearch backup) but the core mechanism — how variations are generated and how each axis is scored — is left abstract with no executable steps.

3 / 5

Workflow Clarity

Clear generate→score→apply sequence with an explicit abort validation checkpoint and review/rollback feedback loops, though steps are spread across sections rather than given as a numbered list.

4 / 5

Progressive Disclosure

Under 50 lines with no need for external references and well-organized sections (Inputs, Variations, Scoring, Safety, Versioning, Output), satisfying the simple-skill exception.

Description

92%Weight 40%Scale 1-5

Based on the skill's description, can an agent find and select it at the right time? Clear, specific descriptions lead to better discovery.

A strong description: third-person voice, concrete actions, explicit when-clause plus trigger phrases, and a distinct niche. The only minor gap is trigger synonym coverage.

DimensionReasoningScore

Specificity

Lists multiple concrete actions — 'generating four variations', 'scoring them on a weighted rubric', 'applying the winner', 'aborts cleanly' — with comprehensive coverage of the skill's behavior.

5 / 5

Completeness

Explicitly answers both what (evolve a skill via four scored variations, apply the winner) and when ('Use when an installed skill is producing low-signal output, hitting deprecated APIs, or feels stale') with concrete trigger phrases.

5 / 5

Trigger Term Quality

Provides explicit natural triggers ('improve this skill', 'evolve $skill', 'auto-research my X', 'regenerate variations') that users would say, though a few synonyms like 'upgrade' or 'optimize' are missing.

4 / 5

Distinctiveness Conflict Risk

Occupies a clear niche (skill self-improvement) with distinct triggers ('evolve $skill', 'auto-research') and minimal overlap risk despite mention of paired related skills.
