iterative-retrievalIterative Retrieval is a skill in affaan-m/ECC (276k stars). Its SKILL.md is about 1.1k tokens, and copies of it appear in 1 other owners' repositories. Licence: MIT.
5 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 4eb71d9. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are javascript and markdown).
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):
x.comFrom URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Iterative Retrieval loads about 1.1k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 11 tokens; SKILL.md has 81 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

│ 最多3次循环,然后继续 │
└─────────────────────────────────────────────┘初始的广泛查询以收集候选文件:
// Start with high-level intent
const initialQuery = {
patterns: ['src/**/*.ts', 'lib/**/*.ts'],
keywords: ['authentication', 'user', 'session'],
excludes: ['*.test.ts', '*.spec.ts']
};
// Dispatch to retrieval agent
const candidates = await retrieveFiles(initialQuery);评估检索到的内容的相关性:
function evaluateRelevance(files, task) {
return files.map(file => ({
path: file.path,
relevance: scoreRelevance(file.content, task),
reason: explainRelevance(file.content, task),
missingContext: identifyGaps(file.content, task)
}));
}评分标准:
根据评估结果更新搜索条件:
function refineQuery(evaluation, previousQuery) {
return {
// Add new patterns discovered in high-relevance files
patterns: [...previousQuery.patterns, ...extractPatterns(evaluation)],
// Add terminology found in codebase
keywords: [...previousQuery.keywords, ...extractKeywords(evaluation)],
// Exclude confirmed irrelevant paths
excludes: [...previousQuery.excludes, ...evaluation
.filter(e => e.relevance < 0.2)
.map(e => e.path)
],
// Target specific gaps
focusAreas: evaluation
.flatMap(e => e.missingContext)
.filter(unique)
};
}使用优化后的条件重复(最多 3 个周期):
async function iterativeRetrieve(task, maxCycles = 3) {
let query = createInitialQuery(task);
let bestContext = [];
for (let cycle = 0; cycle < maxCycles; cycle++) {
const candidates = await retrieveFiles(query);
const evaluation = evaluateRelevance(candidates, task);
// Check if we have sufficient context
const highRelevance = evaluation.filter(e => e.relevance >= 0.7);
if (highRelevance.length >= 3 && !hasCriticalGaps(evaluation)) {
return highRelevance;
}
// Refine and continue
query = refineQuery(evaluation, query);
bestContext = mergeContext(bestContext, highRelevance);
}
return bestContext;
}任务:"修复身份验证令牌过期错误"
循环 1:
分发:在 src/** 中搜索 "token"、"auth"、"expiry"
评估:找到 auth.ts (0.9)、tokens.ts (0.8)、user.ts (0.3)
优化:添加 "refresh"、"jwt" 关键词;排除 user.ts
循环 2:
分发:搜索优化后的关键词
评估:找到 session-manager.ts (0.95)、jwt-utils.ts (0.85)
优化:上下文已充分(2 个高相关文件)
结果:auth.ts、tokens.ts、session-manager.ts、jwt-utils.ts任务:"为API端点添加速率限制"
周期 1:
分发:在 routes/** 中搜索 "rate"、"limit"、"api"
评估:无匹配项 - 代码库使用 "throttle" 术语
优化:添加 "throttle"、"middleware" 关键词
周期 2:
分发:搜索优化后的术语
评估:找到 throttle.ts (0.9)、middleware/index.ts (0.7)
优化:需要路由模式
周期 3:
分发:搜索 "router"、"express" 模式
评估:找到 router-setup.ts (0.8)
优化:上下文已足够
结果:throttle.ts、middleware/index.ts、router-setup.ts在智能体提示中使用:
在为该任务检索上下文时:
1. 从广泛的关键词搜索开始
2. 评估每个文件的相关性(0-1 分制)
3. 识别仍缺失哪些上下文
4. 优化搜索条件并重复(最多 3 个循环)
5. 返回相关性 >= 0.7 的文件

Run `npx skills add affaan-m/ECC --skill iterative-retrieval -a claude-code`. Or copy the skill folder (docs/zh-CN/skills/iterative-retrieval in affaan-m/ECC) into .claude/skills/iterative-retrieval in your project. Claude Code loads it when a task matches its description.
Run `npx skills add affaan-m/ECC --skill iterative-retrieval -a codex`. Or copy the skill folder (docs/zh-CN/skills/iterative-retrieval in affaan-m/ECC) into .agents/skills/iterative-retrieval in your project. Codex loads it when a task matches its description.
Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add affaan-m/ECC --skill iterative-retrieval -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/iterative-retrieval, .gemini/skills/iterative-retrieval, .github/skills/iterative-retrieval and .opencode/skills/iterative-retrieval in your project.
SKILL.md names no scripts, command-line tools or credentials: Iterative Retrieval is instructions for the agent only.
SKILL.md names 1 domain. As links in the text: x.com. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.
Our automated static check of SKILL.md found no risky patterns, such as piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files or hidden Unicode. It is not a guarantee. Review the folder before installing.
Iterative Retrieval is published under the MIT licence (the repository's licence). It allows redistribution, so the full SKILL.md is shown on this page.
About 1.1k tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 4.4k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full.
