agent-improvement skillA
agent-improvement is agent-read markdown (skill) from devantler-tech/agent-skills: How a meta-engineer improves an autonomous AI engineer from the OUTSIDE — mining the agent's own operational telemetry across many runs and, where a deployment runs more than one instance, across all of them. Scores the agent on reliability, safety, efficiency, outcome throughput, quality, coordination, currency, and prioritization/flow, diagnoses root causes from measured patterns, ships the highest-value fix with its evidence and a reversible audit trail, then verifies the targeted metric actu.
Indexed from public GitHub and served as immutable, content-addressed versions. Install it pinned to an exact SHA-256 with the mdr CLI, and every file is verified against the hash recorded here before it reaches your agent. The deterministic audit below grades the latest version, and the same file always earns the same grade.
What the file says
# Agent-improvement loop An autonomous AI engineer improves the products it owns. This skill is how something improves **the engineer itself**, from the outside, on evidence the agent generated by running. **It complements a `self-improvement` skill rather than replacing it.** Self-improvement is a single run reflecting on its own memory, on a slow distil cadence. This is an **external observer** across the whole session corpus — and, in a deployment running more than one instance, across all of them at once. The observer's own Agent Improver sessions are part of that corpus too: it improves the Engineer's execution plane and its own observation plane as separately measured subjects. That vantage point is what makes it see things no single run can: - failures that recur across hundreds of runs but look like one-offs from inside any single run; - waste that feels normal from inside a run (a wait, a retry, a re-read) and is obvious in aggregate; - **divergence between sibling instances** of the same brain; - **drift between what the agent's bootstrap/loader says and what its contract says** — the loaders are …

How to install
mdr add devantler-tech/agent-skills/agent-improvement@git:20260924.2edcf23mdr add devantler-tech/agent-skills/agent-improvement@sha256:9aabde439a254846Pin to a label to follow the author's releases, or to a sha256 to freeze the exact bytes forever. Either way the resolved hash is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install reproduces it on any machine.
