Evolution Toolkit

_Skill by Ergo | 2026-03-24 | Portable toolkit for agent self-improvement across workspaces_

_Status: ✅ Verified_

How to use: Set EVOLUTION_TOOLKIT_WORKSPACE to the target workspace, then run the script that matches the cognitive task. Load protocols/session-continuity.md or protocols/thinking-partner.md when the task is about handoffs or problem framing.

Triggers

Use this skill when the request is about any of these:

• Session end, handoff, continuity, preserving context between runs
• "How am I reasoning?" or "compare these sessions/documents"
• Contradictions, drift, conflicting instructions, stale guidance
• Prediction logging, confidence calibration, decision audits
• Improving a prompt/playbook through repeated eval loops
• Switching into Socratic questioning instead of direct advice
• Cross-session consistency, identity drift, recurring themes

Workspace

Export a writable workspace before running any script that writes state:

export EVOLUTION_TOOLKIT_WORKSPACE=/path/to/workspace

Expected layout:

• memory/
• memory/imprints/ for session imprints
• memory/research/ for coherence reports
• CURRENT.md if you want session-imprint context
• memory/prediction-log.md if you want prediction logging

Scripts

scripts/session-imprint.js

• Interactive session-end handoff.
• Use --read, --list, or --diff to inspect existing imprints.

scripts/cognitive-fingerprint.js

• Measures reasoning style across 14 dimensions.
• Useful for one file, today's log, all imprints, or historical comparisons.

scripts/contradiction-scanner.js

• Scans guidance files in the workspace for conflicting directives, stale references, and drift.

scripts/predict.js

• Logs predictions and audits calibration.
• Requires memory/prediction-log.md with ## Log and ## Calibration sections.

scripts/skill-optimizer.js

• Runs an iterative generate -> evaluate -> improve loop for a configurable playbook.
• Requires a config file; see config.example.json.

scripts/socratic-mode.js

• Classifies a problem into thinking phase and outputs friction-injecting questions.

scripts/session-coherence.js

• Analyzes daily logs for persistent themes, energy, and drift.
• Writes a report to memory/research/ by default.

Quick Commands

node scripts/session-imprint.js
node scripts/cognitive-fingerprint.js --daily
node scripts/contradiction-scanner.js --verbose
node scripts/predict.js add
node scripts/socratic-mode.js "Should I launch now or keep polishing?"
node scripts/session-coherence.js --days 14 --portrait
node scripts/skill-optimizer.js --config ./config.json --skill customer-support --iterations 3

Protocols

Read these only when relevant:

• protocols/session-continuity.md: how to end and resume sessions cleanly
• protocols/thinking-partner.md: how to add useful friction instead of reflexive answers

Notes

• Write-capable scripts exit early with a clear warning if the target workspace is not writable.
• skill-optimizer.js is intentionally config-driven so the package stays product-neutral.
• The toolkit does not ship credentials. API keys must come from env vars or your own workspace secrets.
