What problem does it solve?
This Skill helps you optimize configurable system parameters against a measurable scalar objective when evaluations are expensive, noisy, or too complex to tune by hand. It is designed for situations where reading the project code can improve the quality of trial proposals and reduce wasted search budget.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Project-aware optimization: Read the target repository to understand what each parameter means, how parameters interact, and what constraints must be respected.
- Ask/tell trial control: Drive studies through explicit trial creation, evaluation, and result recording so outcomes remain auditable and resumable.
- Safety and recovery: Use bounded search, validation against the declared space, and safe fallback behavior when replies are invalid or a trial fails.
- Use cases: Hyperparameter tuning for model training, inference latency and cost trade-offs, quantitative strategy optimization, reinforcement learning controller tuning, and other black-box scientific workflows.
Quick Start
Ask the agent to read the project, identify the tunable parameters and objective, then propose and record one valid trial using optim-agent's ask/tell workflow.
