SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) and assets (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill aids in the evolution and optimization of harnesses for coding agents, specifically through editing the HDP (Harness Definition Protocol) document, which defines and governs the capabilities of the harness.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Evolution Guide: Walks users through editing the HDP document for the evolution of coding agents.
  • HDP Document Editing: Detailed instructions on manipulating layers (e.g., context, tooling, governance) and components (e.g., system rules, tools) within the HDP document.
  • Use Case: Users looking to refine their agent's harness by applying precise changes to the HDP document for iterative improvements.

Quick Start

Apply changes to your coding agent's harness using the hdp-evolution-guide by reviewing and modifying the relevant layers and components in the HDP document according to the guidelines.

Frequently Asked Questions about hdp-evolution-guide

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I modify a harness definition protocol document for coding agents?▼

Modifying a harness definition protocol (HDP) document involves editing its layers like context, tooling, and governance, alongside components like system rules and tools, to iteratively refine your coding agent's capabilities.

What is the HDP evolve analyze improve loop?▼

The HDP evolve analyze improve loop is an iterative optimization workflow for coding agents where users apply changes to governance contracts, change manifests, and operator vocabulary within the HDP document to enhance performance.

How do I optimize a coding agent harness using version control?▼

You optimize a coding agent harness by applying version-controlled changes to the HDP document, manipulating its layers and components to iteratively improve agent training and harness performance through structured governance contracts.

What are governance contracts and change manifests in harness optimization?▼

Governance contracts and change manifests are structural components within an HDP document that define rules and track modifications, enabling precise and controlled evolution of a coding agent's harness during the optimization process.

Can I update operator vocabulary in a coding agent harness definition?▼

Yes, you can update operator vocabulary by editing the HDP document according to the evolution guide, allowing you to refine the specific instructions and terms your coding agent recognizes and processes during its training loop.
