SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Meta-Optimize identifies recurring friction and failure patterns in ARIS usage logs so the harness itself can be improved, reducing manual overrides and stabilizing workflows over time.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Log-driven harness diagnostics: Summarizes skill usage frequency, tool failures, parameter override trends, and review-loop convergence behavior from .aris/meta/events.jsonl.
  • Targeted optimization planning: Ranks the highest-impact harness components to adjust, such as reviewer prompts, default parameters, stopping/convergence rules, and workflow ordering.
  • Minimal safe patch proposals with review-gating: Generates constrained diffs, then cross-model reviews patches for evidence support and risk before recommending changes.
  • User-approved application workflow: Backs up SKILL.md, applies patches only after explicit approval, and records changes in .aris/meta/optimizations.jsonl.

Quick Start

Run meta-optimize to analyze your recorded ARIS event logs and receive a ranked set of safe, minimal SKILL.md harness patch recommendations.

FAQPage Schema
How do I optimize workflow defaults from ARIS execution logs?

To optimize workflow defaults from ARIS execution logs, you analyze accumulated usage and failure patterns in `.aris/meta/events.jsonl` to propose minimal diffs for reviewer prompts, retry rules, and harness parameters.

What is the best way to improve reviewer prompts and convergence rules in ARIS?

Improving reviewer prompts and convergence rules in ARIS involves analyzing recorded event logs to identify friction patterns, ranking high-impact components, and generating constrained diffs for cross-model adversarial review.

How much logged data do I need before tuning ARIS harness parameters?

Tuning ARIS harness parameters requires a minimum amount of logged data within `.aris/meta/events.jsonl` to ensure sufficient usage and failure patterns exist for generating safe, minimal patch proposals.

Can I apply SKILL.md harness patches without manual approval?

No, you cannot apply SKILL.md harness patches without manual approval. The system backs up `SKILL.md`, performs cross-model adversarial review, and requires explicit user approval before applying changes and recording them in `.aris/meta/optimizations.jsonl`.

Does meta-optimize support targeted prompt tuning for a specific skill?

Yes, meta-optimize supports targeted prompt tuning by optionally scoping its analysis and proposed harness optimizations to a specific target skill, adjusting reviewer prompts and workflow defaults accordingly.

Why are my ARIS workflow overrides failing to converge during review loops?

ARIS workflow overrides failing to converge during review loops often stem from suboptimal default parameters or stopping rules. Analyzing execution-grounded logs helps identify these recurring friction patterns for patch generation.
