Self Improvement Loops

Self Improvement Loops is an agent skill (a SKILL.md file) from muratcankoylan/Agent-Skills-for-Context-Engineering. It should be used when the harness, scaffold, workflow, or optimizer itself is the optimization target: recursive self-improvement (RSI) loops, meta-harnesses, self-improving harnesses that. It works with Claude Code, Codex, Cursor and GitHub Copilot and has 18,216 GitHub stars across a repository of 6 listed skills.

ChatGPT / Codex

Codex reads skills from .agents/skills/ in a repo or ~/.agents/skills/ for every project:

git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/muratcankoylan/Agent-Skills-for-Context-Engineering.git
cp -r Agent-Skills-for-Context-Engineering/skills/self-improvement-loops .agents/skills/self-improvement-loops   # repo; ~/.agents/skills for all projects

Standalone skills also load in the ChatGPT desktop app.

Cursor

Cursor loads skills from .cursor/skills/ (or ~/.cursor/skills/) and also reads .claude/skills/:

git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/muratcankoylan/Agent-Skills-for-Context-Engineering.git
cp -r Agent-Skills-for-Context-Engineering/skills/self-improvement-loops .cursor/skills/self-improvement-loops   # project; ~/.cursor/skills for all projects

What this skill does

This skill should be used when the harness, scaffold, workflow, or optimizer itself is the optimization target: recursive self-improvement (RSI) loops, meta-harnesses, self-improving harnesses that mine their own failures and propose bounded edits, evolutionary or population-based search over agent scaffolds, acceptance gates for self-modifying systems, and agentic context evolution where the mechanism that produces context is versioned and evolved.

When it triggers

  • used when the harness, scaffold, workflow, or optimizer itself is the optimization target: recursive self-improvement (RSI) loops, meta-harnesses, self-improving harnesses that mine their own failures and propose bounded edits, evolutionary
