At a glance

Evolve any installed skill by generating four variations along separate theses (better inputs / sharper output / more robust / rethink), scoring them on a weighted rubric, and applying the winner.

  • An installed skill is producing low-signal output
  • SKILL.md covers Inputs, The four variations, Scoring and Safety guarantee, plus 2 more sections
  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md
  • Hitting deprecated APIs

What it does

Aeon Autoresearch is an agent skill from BankrBot/skills. Evolve any installed skill by generating four variations along separate theses (better inputs / sharper output / more robust / rethink), scoring them on a weighted rubric, and applying the winner. Never downgrades a working skill — aborts cleanly if no variation improves the original. Use when an installed skill is producing low-signal output, hitting deprecated APIs, or feels stale. Triggers: "improve this skill", "evolve $skill", "auto-research my X", "regenerate variations".

Its SKILL.md is about 600 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 1 other file (for example `catalog.json`).

It sits in Education, covering Autonomous loops and Quizzes and assessments. The repository describes itself as: Bankr Skills equip builders with plug-and-play tools to build more powerful agents.

When your agent uses it

  • An installed skill is producing low-signal output
  • Hitting deprecated APIs

Example prompts

  • “improve this skill”
  • “evolve $skill”
  • “auto-research my X”
  • “/aeon-autoresearch”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit dc47eed. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    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.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Aeon Autoresearch loads about 604 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 125 tokens; SKILL.md has 231 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~125
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~604

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.

Safety

Auto-check passed

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.

SKILL.md

Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 231 words (~604 tokens).

“Self-improvement loop. Given a target SKILL.md, generates four parallel improved variations, scores each, applies the winner.”
