What problem does it solve?
This Skill turns one selected self-improvement gap into a narrowly scoped, verifiable pull request, preventing vague fixes, scope creep, and unvalidated prompt or workflow changes.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Structured Gap Research: Identify root causes, affected files, acceptance criteria, risks, and a falsifiable verification plan.
- Focused Implementation: Select the appropriate fix type, edit the writable clone, and keep the change aligned with the underlying problem.
- Validation and Handoff: Run targeted checks, include adversarial testing for heuristic or prompt changes, create a privacy-safe pull request, and verify required labels.
- Use Case: When a nightly self-improvement workflow selects a recurring agent failure, use this Skill to research the failure, plan and implement the smallest effective change, validate regressions, and open one focused PR.
Quick Start
Use the improve-gap-task skill with the selected structured fix packet and execute its research, plan, implement, validate, and open-PR phases in order.
