What it does

New Feedback is an agent skill from PromptPartner/agentsmith. Log a harness lesson / post-incident so the SYSTEM improves, not just this one bug — fires on "log a harness lesson", "post-incident", "we should make this less likely", System-Evolution moments. Part of the Agentsmith harness; scaffolds a numbered docs/feedback/NNNN-.md with the five-stage template (R9 — numbers are never reused).

Its SKILL.md is about 610 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts. Compatibility notes: Requires filesystem access; the fast path requires the cross-platform Agentsmith CLI.

It sits in Development, covering Project scaffolding. The repository describes itself as: Universal, model-agnostic operating harness for AI agents (Claude, Codex, Gemini, …) — a lean core + work-type profiles assembled by one setup script. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Project scaffolding

Example prompts

  • “log a harness lesson”
  • “post-incident”
  • “we should make this less likely”
  • “/new-feedback”

Requirements

  • Compatibility (from SKILL.md): Requires filesystem access; the fast path requires the cross-platform Agentsmith CLI.

Workflow steps

2 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Next number = (highest existing docs/feedback/NNNN-*.md + 1), zero-padded to 4 digits.
  2. Create docs/feedback/NNNN-.md (Status: open) with the five stages

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit b293c3a. 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.

  • Compatibility

    Requires filesystem access; the fast path requires the cross-platform Agentsmith CLI.

    From compatibility in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

Context cost

New Feedback loads about 608 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 87 tokens; SKILL.md has 275 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~87
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~608

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.

New feedback note (harness post-incident)

The point is not to fix THIS bug — it's to change the SYSTEM so this whole CLASS is less likely (core/60). Small, specific, traceable to the incident.

When this fires

You were corrected on something a rule could have prevented; you iterated more than you should have; a human stepped in; you re-derived a decision a past session already made. After fixing the immediate thing, capture the lesson.

Absence gate

Before filing or implementing a missing-item defect, confirm absence with an exact, count-based, or untruncated result. Truncated, paginated, filtered, or summarized search output is incomplete evidence.

Fast path — if the Agentsmith CLI is available

Run agentsmith new-feedback "short symptom" — use .agentsmith/agentsmith on macOS/Linux or .agentsmith\\agentsmith.cmd on Windows when the command is not on PATH. It computes the next number and writes docs/feedback/NNNN-<slug>.md with the five-stage template, Status open.

Fallback — no CLI

  1. Next number = (highest existing docs/feedback/NNNN-*.md + 1), zero-padded to 4 digits. Numbers are never reused (R9), even if an old entry was archived.
  2. Create docs/feedback/NNNN-<slug>.md (Status: open) with the five stages:
    • Evidence / symptom — what was observed, quoted.
    • Failure mechanism — WHY the system allowed it (missing rule / vague instruction / absent guardrail / unreached tool / noisy context — almost never "the model was dumb").
    • Bounded edit — the smallest change that prevents the whole class.
    • Named surface — exactly where it lands (a core rule, a hook, a verify phase, a template); prefer a deterministic surface over prose the model can skip.
    • Non-regression — the check that stays red on recurrence. Until it's real, Status stays open.

Report

Name the file, then land the bounded edit on its named surface and flip Status to applied.

When should I use New Feedback?

New Feedback fits situations like: tasks that involve Project scaffolding.

How do I install New Feedback in Claude Code?

Run `npx skills add PromptPartner/agentsmith --skill new-feedback -a claude-code`. Or copy the skill folder (skills/new-feedback in PromptPartner/agentsmith) into .claude/skills/new-feedback in your project. Claude Code loads it when a task matches its description.

How do I install New Feedback in Codex?

Run `npx skills add PromptPartner/agentsmith --skill new-feedback -a codex`. Or copy the skill folder (skills/new-feedback in PromptPartner/agentsmith) into .agents/skills/new-feedback in your project. Codex loads it when a task matches its description.

Can I use New Feedback in Cursor, Gemini CLI or GitHub Copilot?

Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add PromptPartner/agentsmith --skill new-feedback -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/new-feedback, .gemini/skills/new-feedback, .github/skills/new-feedback and .opencode/skills/new-feedback in your project.

What does New Feedback need to run?

SKILL.md names no scripts, command-line tools or credentials: New Feedback is instructions for the agent only. Compatibility (from SKILL.md): Requires filesystem access; the fast path requires the cross-platform Agentsmith CLI..

Does New Feedback access the network?

SKILL.md contains no URLs. Any network use would come from the scripts or tools the agent runs. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.

Is New Feedback safe to install?

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.

What licence does New Feedback use?

New Feedback is published under the MIT licence (the repository's licence). It allows redistribution, so the full SKILL.md is shown on this page.

How many tokens does New Feedback use?

About 608 tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 2.4k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full.
