optimize-agentic-workload SKILL.md skillA

optimize-agentic-workload from understudylabs/orchestra-agent-tools is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned
mdr add understudylabs/orchestra-agent-tools/optimize-agentic-workload@git:20261027.533318e

Pins git:20261027.533318e in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Use when a developer's agent — a multi-turn tool-calling loop — should get cheaper, faster, or better. "My agent is too slow", "this workflow costs too much", "test a cheaper model in my tool-calling loop", "A/B the policy model". Covers read-only search loops and state-mutating API workflows alike.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Optimize Agentic Workload

Use this worker when the workload is an **agentic loop**: an LLM that plans over
multiple turns and calls tools (web search, retrieval, REST/SDK calls, code
execution) before finishing. Freeze every non-target variable within each
experiment; model/route comparisons hold the tools fixed, while a named
implementation arm may isolate one deployable tool, app, or harness change. The
goal is to pick the route and implementation you would ship on a
**multi-objective** basis — quality and latency and cost (and, for workflows
that write, side-effect safety). The route is backend-agnostic: use the existing
harness, provider-native evaluation or training, the public CLI, or a small
versioned app/harness change when the measured failure calls for it.

**The one discriminator that changes the playbook** is whether the loop
*mutates state*:

- **Read-only search loops** — web/agentic search, retrieval, lookup tools.
  Success depends on how the agent searches and the final answer; determinism
  comes from snapshotting live tool outputs. Harness specifics:
  [`references/read-only-search.md`](references/read-only-search.md).

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add understudylabs/orchestra-agent-tools/optimize-agentic-workload@sha256:3e008bcf10cb55ce

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261027.533318e, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
