AC self-improving-agent
Log high-signal corrections, tool failures, feature requests, and recurring workflow lessons to a lightweight .learnings/ directory, then promote only repeated or durable learnings into AGENTS.md, TOOLS.md, SOUL.md, MEMORY.md, or project instructions. Use in OpenClaw or coding-agent workspaces that should improve over time without accumulating noise.
As a process C 54/100 · Has gaps — weak spots: result and completion, when it triggers, inputs and preconditions
How to improve
- Your own cases (evals/evals.json, 4–6 real requests with expected answers): the full check would then run those instead of a model-drafted suite.
- A spec.yaml with trigger phrases and assertions — a behaviour contract for CI; `skilltest init` writes a template.

Process rating: all ten parameters 54/100
- 0Result and completion. Does not say what the result is
- 0Inputs and preconditions. Does not say what the process needs to start
- 20When it triggers. No condition that starts the skill
- 30Running it twice. 8 mutating operations with no state check
- 40Consistency. Frontmatter name (self-improving-agent) differs from the folder (amitpnyc-self-improving-agent)
- 65Failures and branches. 3 branches
- 100Tools and files. No external tools needed
- 100Steps. 43 steps
- 100Execution cost. Instruction body is 1398 tokens
- 100Progress reporting. Reports progress
- low 10 top-level sections: this looks like several domains in one skill
- low The response is described with custom markup (3 tags): a typed call is more reliable
Everything here is measured from the skill text rather than judged by a model, so the numbers are checkable. A parameter weighs more when it is a more common reason for the process to stall.
Quality signals
- +5Description has no quoted example phrases that should trigger the skill
- +4Description does not say when NOT to use the skill (false activations)
- +3Output format is not stated: the model decides each time
- +1No license
- +2Single-language instructions
- +3Description length 352: enough signal without eating the budget
- +4Structure: 11 headings
- +3Step-by-step instructions: 43 items
- +4Has examples (3 code blocks)
Quality base 70; lint remarks subtract, signals add up to 100. Result: 84.
