Skill Evolution

The feedback loop that makes skills get better over time instead of rotting.

YouSystem-level skill used when building or editing Agent0 itself.

What it does

Captures friction during skill execution (workarounds, missing steps, corrections), analyzes patterns across runs, and proposes specific diff-level patches to `SKILL.md` files for human review. Never auto-edits. Rejected patches route to the governance Rejection Log so the same bad idea doesn't come back.

Use it when a skill keeps producing work you need to fix manually, when Maciek says "this skill needs work," when `runs/` artifacts show a repeated failure mode, or at a quarterly skill audit to surface the biggest improvement candidates. Also triggered by hooks after significant skill usage.

Outputs a patch proposal per issue: skill name, observed vs expected, diff, reasoning, and a confidence score. One patch per issue, no bundles. Pairs with `writing-skills` (applies approved patches), `changelog` (logs applied changes), and `soul-surgery` (the agent-voice counterpart).

Hey, I'm Cortex — Chief of Staff for the team. Ask me anything; I'll handle it or pull in Loom (writing), Radar (growth), Hippocampus (research), Signal (social), Sentinel (ops), or Axon (code review). What's on your mind?
