Iteratively improve any artifact and its improvement harness, inventing evaluation when needed; supports bounded runs, tournaments and continuous resumable search.
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
Apply [library context](../../references/library-context.md) and required [evaluation](references/evaluation.md) and [state](references/state.md) contracts. Accept artifacts, seeds or a creation brief; purpose and constraints; optional bounds, output location and scoped settings. Infer quality criteria; clarify gaps that prevent meaningful creation or assessment. Production follows core staffing rules and evaluation's context exclusions. ## Start or resume Use the caller's directory or a distinct `evolve-runs/<run-id>/` in their workspace. Reconcile saved state and in-flight work before new work. For a new run, preserve the original or create a seed from the brief. Design, calibrate and save evaluation before challengers. Evaluate seeds, choose the incumbent (current best), and save the harness: working instructions, tools and search policy. Record bounds, scoped settings and per-experiment limits. Default to three rounds and one challenger per round. Explicit continuous requests remove the total round cap: continue until stopped, a supplied bound is reached or execution is blocked. A target stops work only if the caller says so; plateau is not completion. ## Repeat …

How to install
mdr add danmcinerney/orchflows/evolve@sha256:3fba386d32091834The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260923.9d51df1, 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.
