What it does
Capability Evolver is an agent skill from LeoYeAI/openclaw-master-skills. A self-evolution engine for AI agents. Analyzes runtime history to identify improvements and applies protocol-constrained evolution.
Its SKILL.md is about 1.4k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 81 other files, including scripts and assets (for example `CONTRIBUTING.md`, `README.md` and `README.zh-CN.md`).
The repository describes itself as: 🧠 Curated collection of 1209+ best OpenClaw skills — weekly updated by MyClaw.ai. The licence is MIT.

Requirements

Workflow steps
2 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit e5199b5. 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
Ships 10 files in scripts/ (JavaScript, from the files we listed), which the agent can run.
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
nodegitnpm
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:
evomap.aigithub.com
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
Capability Evolver loads about 1.4k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 38 tokens; SKILL.md has 596 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.
Safety
Auto-check: notes
The automated check noted patterns worth knowing about, such as sudo or a known installer.

Set `EVOLVE_REPORT_TOOL` in your `.env` file:
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); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.

🧬 Capability Evolver
"Evolution is not optional. Adapt or die."
The Capability Evolver is a meta-skill that allows OpenClaw agents to inspect their own runtime history, identify failures or inefficiencies, and autonomously write new code or update their own memory to improve performance.
Features
- Auto-Log Analysis: Automatically scans memory and history files for errors and patterns.
- Self-Repair: Detects crashes and suggests patches.
- GEP Protocol: Standardized evolution with reusable assets.
- One-Command Evolution: Just run
/evolve(ornode index.js).
Usage
Standard Run (Automated)
Runs the evolution cycle. If no flags are provided, it assumes fully automated mode (Mad Dog Mode) and executes changes immediately.
node index.jsReview Mode (Human-in-the-Loop)
If you want to review changes before they are applied, pass the --review flag. The agent will pause and ask for confirmation.
node index.js --reviewMad Dog Mode (Continuous Loop)
To run in an infinite loop (e.g., via cron or background process), use the --loop flag or just standard execution in a cron job.
node index.js --loopSetup
Before using this skill, register your node identity with the EvoMap network:
- Run the hello flow (via
evomap.jsor the EvoMap onboarding) to receive anode_idand claim code - Visit
https://evomap.ai/claim/<claim-code>within 24 hours to bind the node to your account - Set the node identity in your environment:
export A2A_NODE_ID=node_xxxxxxxxxxxxOr in your agent config (e.g., ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json):
{ "env": { "A2A_NODE_ID": "node_xxxxxxxxxxxx", "A2A_HUB_URL": "https://evomap.ai" } }Do not hardcode the node ID in scripts. getNodeId() in src/gep/a2aProtocol.js reads A2A_NODE_ID automatically -- any script using the protocol layer will pick it up without extra configuration.
Configuration
| Environment Variable | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|
A2A_NODE_ID | (required) | Your EvoMap node identity. Set this after node registration -- never hardcode it in scripts. Read automatically by getNodeId() in a2aProtocol.js. |
EVOLVE_ALLOW_SELF_MODIFY | false | Allow evolution to modify evolver's own source code. NOT recommended for production. Enabling this can cause instability -- the evolver may introduce bugs into its own prompt generation, validation, or solidify logic, leading to cascading failures that require manual intervention. Only enable for controlled experiments. |
EVOLVE_LOAD_MAX | 2.0 | Maximum 1-minute load average before evolver backs off. |
EVOLVE_STRATEGY | balanced | Evolution strategy: balanced, innovate, harden, repair-only, early-stabilize, steady-state, or auto. |
EVOLVER_ROLLBACK_MODE | hard | Rollback strategy when evolution fails. hard: use git reset --hard (destructive, original behavior). stash: use git stash to preserve changes for recovery. none: skip rollback entirely. Use stash for safer operation in active workspaces. |

GEP Protocol (Auditable Evolution)
This package embeds a protocol-constrained evolution prompt (GEP) and a local, structured asset store:
assets/gep/genes.json: reusable Gene definitionsassets/gep/capsules.json: success capsules to avoid repeating reasoningassets/gep/events.jsonl: append-only evolution events (tree-like via parent id)
Emoji Policy
Only the DNA emoji is allowed in documentation. All other emoji are disallowed.
Configuration & Decoupling
This skill is designed to be environment-agnostic. It uses standard OpenClaw tools by default.
Local Overrides (Injection)
You can inject local preferences (e.g., using feishu-card instead of message for reports) without modifying the core code.
Method 1: Environment Variables
Set EVOLVE_REPORT_TOOL in your .env file:
EVOLVE_REPORT_TOOL=feishu-cardMethod 2: Dynamic Detection
The script automatically detects if compatible local skills (like skills/feishu-card) exist in your workspace and upgrades its behavior accordingly.
Safety & Risk Protocol
1. Identity & Directives
- Identity Injection: "You are a Recursive Self-Improving System."
- Mutation Directive:
- If Errors Found -> Repair Mode (Fix bugs).
- If Stable -> Forced Optimization (Refactor/Innovate).
2. Risk Mitigation
- Infinite Recursion: Strict single-process logic.
- Review Mode: Use
--reviewfor sensitive environments. - Git Sync: Always recommended to have a git-sync cron job running alongside this skill.
Before Troubleshooting -- Check Your Version First
If you encounter unexpected errors or behavior, always verify your version before debugging:
node -e "const p=require('./package.json'); console.log(p.version)"If you are not on the latest release, update first -- most reported issues are already fixed in newer versions:
# If installed via git
git pull && npm install
# If installed via npm (global install)
npm install -g evolver@latestLatest releases and changelog: https://github.com/autogame-17/evolver/releases
