Capture durable user feedback into the governing skill, doc or check, or propose creating a new skill when no suitable one exists, so future sessions don't repeat the mistake. Use when the user rejects, reverts, or overrides the agent's output or approach on something a skill, doc or check covers or should cover, and when manually invoked to improve or create guidance.
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
# Self-improve **Suggest** durable improvements to the skill, doc or check that should have steered the agent, so the next session gets it right without being told again — and apply them only after the user approves. The skill proposes; the user stays in control of every change. Three ways in: - **Manual** — the user invokes `/self-improve` to deliberately improve a skill or doc. - **Self-triggered** — the agent notices it was corrected on something a skill, doc or check governs (or should). Don't silently correct and move on, but don't derail the task either: note the lesson, finish what the user asked for, and offer to persist it at the next natural breakpoint. - **Driven by another skill** — a caller (or its launch command, pasted by the user) hands over lessons already phrased as durable guidance, sometimes with all or part of a target it settled with the user (scope, form, path — possibly a new file or a merge into an existing one). Skip step 1; skip step 2 for a lesson whose target the caller settled fully, run it for the rest keeping what the caller settled — its Mechanical lesson bullet and new-doc indexing requirement …

How to install
mdr add eai-org/agent-toolkit/self-improve@sha256:0893b608a64f2a0cThe line at the top of this page pins the label v1.13, 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.
