Simplicio Autoresearch | Agent Skills Atlas

About this skill

Evolutionary optimize-by-metric loop — mutate a target, evaluate against fixed criteria, KEEP if the score improves (commit) or REVERT if it doesn't (git checkout), repeat, plateau-break after N stagnated runs. Adapts Karpathy's autoresearch pattern (and the ECC autoresearch-agent) with mandatory yool guardrails (§11 caps), git-isolated branch discipline, an anti-Goodhart eval order (correctness gate FIRST, score SECOND, labeled tokenizer), a local-first mutation ladder, and a simplicio.savings-event/v1 receipt per run. Use when the user says "optimize this by ", "autoresearch loop", "evolutionary optimize", "mutate/eval/keep-revert", or asks to shrink tokens/latency/bundle size/improve pass-rate against a fixed, measurable eval. Worker: scripts/autoresearch.py.

Original description

Evolutionary optimize-by-metric loop — mutate a target, evaluate against fixed criteria, KEEP if the score improves (commit) or REVERT if it doesn't (git checkout), repeat, plateau-break after N stagnated runs. Adapts Karpathy's `autoresearch` pattern (and the ECC `autoresearch-agent`) with mandatory yool guardrails (§11 caps), git-isolated branch discipline, an anti-Goodhart eval order (correctness gate FIRST, score SECOND, labeled tokenizer), a local-first mutation ladder, and a `simplicio.savings-event/v1` receipt per run. Use when the user says "optimize this by <metric>", "autoresearch loop", "evolutionary optimize", "mutate/eval/keep-revert", or asks to shrink tokens/latency/bundle size/improve pass-rate against a fixed, measurable eval. Worker: `scripts/autoresearch.py`.
