Improve skills through repeated scoring, behavioral tests, and peer review toward a requested quality target.
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
# Skill Refiner: Iterative Self-Improvement Loop Adaptive evaluation loop for AI skill collections, inspired by Karpathy's AutoResearch. Orchestrates repeated score-improve-verify cycles using **skill-creator** as the engine and mandatory peer review as an adversarial check (cross-model when distinct model identity is verified, fresh-context self-review as the minimum fallback). ## When to use - Batch-improving the entire skill collection after a period of manual edits - Targeted improvement of one named skill when the user explicitly asks for skill-refiner, multiple iterations, a score target, or "no ceiling" polish - Running quality sweeps before a release or publish - Triggering a self-improvement cycle where skills bootstrap each other - After adding several new skills that need polish and consistency alignment - When cross-model perspective would catch single-model blind spots - Periodic maintenance: scheduled improvement runs to keep skills current ## When NOT to use - Creating a new skill from scratch - use **skill-creator** (Mode 1) - Single-pass review of one skill without iteration, scoring, or peer review - use **skill-creator** (Mode 2) …

How to install
mdr add iuliandita/skills/skill-refiner@sha256:deffba52f63ac58aThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261103.cd466ca, 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.
