evolve is agent-read markdown (skill) from lstr-1/skills: Use this skill when extracting session patterns into reusable learnings. Three modes: analyze (extract from session history), review (edit/manage existing learnings), list (display active learnings). Manages .orchestrator/metrics/learnings.jsonl..
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
> **Platform Note:** State files use the platform's native directory: `.orchestrator/` (Claude Code), `.orchestrator/` (Codex CLI), or `.orchestrator/` (Cursor IDE). Shared metrics live in `.orchestrator/metrics/` (v2) with fallback to `<state-dir>/metrics/` for pre-v2.0 legacy data. See `skills/_shared/platform-tools.md`.
# Evolve Skill
> **Port note — `unverified` runtime.** This skill references runtime modules under
> `scripts/lib/*.mjs`. Those modules are NOT present in the source plugin directory `sex/`
> and were NOT ported. Every such reference is `unverified`: the agent MUST probe for the
> module at runtime and continue in degraded mode when it is absent. Do NOT assume the module
> exists. Affected modules in this skill: `scripts/lib/evolve/autopilot-effectiveness.mjs`, `scripts/lib/hardware-pattern-detector.mjs`, `scripts/lib/peer-cards/merger.mjs`, `scripts/lib/peer-cards/reader.mjs`, `scripts/lib/peer-cards/writer.mjs`.
## Phase 0: Bootstrap Gate
Read `skills/_shared/bootstrap-gate.md` and execute the gate check. If the gate is CLOSED, invoke `skills/bootstrap/SKILL.md` and wait for completion before proceeding. If the gate is OPEN, continue to Phase 1.

Pin 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.
