EvoSkills

Overview

EvoSkills studies how agents can generate skills as structured multi-file artifacts while a co-evolving surrogate verifier critiques them. It makes the verifier lane part of the learning surface rather than an afterthought.

Why it matters

It matters because self-improvement without a verifier quickly becomes eloquent self-deception. EvoSkills is one of the cleanest papers insisting that mutation and evaluation must evolve together.

Distinctive trait

Its distinctive trait is co-evolutionary verification: the skill generator is paired with a surrogate verifier that supplies actionable feedback even when hidden tests are unavailable.

Relationships

Read EvoSkills with memento-skills, SkillFoundry, and JudgeFlow. It also belongs inside self-evolving-workflows as a strong model of verifier-guided promotion.
