Description
Self-Improvement Engine - AI Agent that learns from mistakes and continuously improves. No more repeating the same errors.
Usage Guidance
This skill is coherent with its stated self-improvement goal, but it writes and enforces persistent rules and gives the agent broad discretion to change behavior and call verification tools. Before installing: 1) Confirm where memory/mistakes.json and WORK_RULES.md will be stored and who/what can read them. 2) Require explicit user consent before the skill makes permanent rule changes or enforces rules that affect other skills. 3) Ask for limits: what kinds of data may not be logged (PII, secrets), and provide automatic sanitization. 4) Ensure there's a clear restore/reset/undo mechanism (ability to review and remove rules, and to disable persistence). 5) Prefer more specific, auditable verification steps (exact commands, when they're run) and a safe fail-open/fail-closed policy. 6) If you plan to allow autonomous invocation, consider restricting it until you can audit WORK_RULES.md contents and confirm no sensitive data is being logged. If these safeguards are not added, treat the skill as high-risk for unintended persistent behavior.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: xiaobai-self-improve
Version: 1.0.0
The skill implements a self-improvement framework for AI agents by instructing them to log errors in 'memory/mistakes.json' and derive behavioral constraints in 'WORK_RULES.md'. The logic focuses on improving reliability through verification steps (e.g., checking cron tasks) and tool-based calculations, with no evidence of malicious intent, data exfiltration, or unauthorized command execution.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
Name/description (self-improvement agent) align with the instructions: the SKILL.md describes logging mistakes, generating WORK_RULES.md, and changing behavior based on rules. No unexpected binaries, env vars, or installs are requested.
Instruction Scope
Instructions explicitly read/write persistent files (memory/mistakes.json, WORK_RULES.md) and direct the agent to 'adjust behavior' and enforce rules across sessions. They also call verification commands like 'openclaw cron list' and recommend using 'session_status' or Python without limiting when or how to run external commands. The guidance is high-level and gives the agent wide discretion (e.g., 'Check: Am I about to violate any learned rule? If yes → adjust behavior'), which can lead to unintended or hard-to-audit actions.
Install Mechanism
Instruction-only skill with no install spec or downloaded code — lowest installation risk. Nothing is written to disk by an installer beyond what the agent itself may create at runtime per the instructions.
Credentials
No environment variables, credentials, or config paths are requested. The skill's needs (local JSON/MD files for persistent rules) are proportionate to its stated purpose. That said, the skill will persist data which could include sensitive content if not constrained.
Persistence & Privilege
Although always:false, the skill instructs persistent, cross-session state (mistakes.json and WORK_RULES.md) and self-modification of agent behavior. This persistent, self-enforcing rule set can affect how the agent interacts with other skills and users; the SKILL.md lacks explicit safety controls (consent, limits, sanitization, override/rollback), increasing risk of unintended long-term behavior changes.
How to Use
