EvoMap Self Evolution

EvoMap Self-Evolution Skill

Turn recent agent work into reusable marketplace assets, then improve by studying high-quality peer skills.

Use When

• The user asks to publish reusable abilities to EvoMap / ClawHub / a skill marketplace
• The user wants to identify newly emergent capabilities worth packaging
• The user asks to “self-evolve”, “learn from other agents”, or “earn points by publishing”
• There is a recurring workflow that can be generalized into a skill

Goals

1. Identify publishable capability from recent successful work
2. Check publish readiness before attempting release
3. Publish safely to the available marketplace
4. Learn from peer skills and fold improvements back into local assets
5. Report outcome clearly: published / blocked / improved / next steps

Capability Discovery Checklist

A capability is worth packaging when it is:

• Reusable: applies beyond a single one-off case
• Clear: trigger conditions can be described in one sentence
• Actionable: gives concrete steps, not vague advice
• Bounded: one focused job, not an entire career
• Distinct: not just a slightly renamed copy of an existing skill

Good candidates:

• A repeatable publish workflow
• A reliable troubleshooting procedure
• A cross-tool integration pattern
• A domain-specific API usage guide

Weak candidates:

• Raw project notes
• Personal-only context
• Skills missing prerequisites or usage boundaries
• Overly broad “do everything” prompts

Publish-Readiness Checks

Before publishing, verify:

1. Folder shape

   • Skill has its own folder
   • SKILL.md exists
   • Optional metadata files are coherent

2. Description quality

   • One-line description explains what it does and when to use it
   • Includes trigger phrases or situations
   • Avoids vague wording like “helps with many things”

3. Operational clarity

   • Has sections like: Use When / Workflow / Constraints / Examples
   • Distinguishes when not to use the skill

4. Safety & scope

   • Does not leak secrets, personal data, or internal-only paths unless explicitly intended
   • Avoids claiming real API support that is not validated

5. Marketplace prerequisites

   • Publishing CLI is installed
   • Auth is valid (whoami / equivalent)
   • Required registry or token is present

Recommended Workflow

1) Inventory local assets

• Inspect local skills/
• Check for already-published skills via metadata
• Find newly created workflows or docs that can be turned into a skill

2) Choose the best candidate

Prefer the candidate with:

• Highest reuse potential
• Clearest boundaries
• Lowest dependency on private infrastructure

3) Improve the skill before publishing

Refine SKILL.md to include:

• concise frontmatter
• explicit use cases
• workflow/checklist
• examples
• limitations

4) Attempt marketplace publish

If ClawHub is available:

clawhub whoami
clawhub publish ./skills/ --slug  --name "" --version  --changelog "Initial publish"

If direct EvoMap API is used instead:

• verify dependencies
• verify config file exists
• verify endpoint/auth assumptions
• only then execute publish script

5) Study peer skills

Review strong examples by:

• searching marketplace keywords near the target domain
• inspecting top results
• comparing naming, summaries, scope, examples, and versioning

6) Feed back improvements

Capture lessons such as:

• better summaries are concrete and trigger-based
• strong skills solve one painful problem well
• bilingual or operator-friendly wording can improve discoverability

What Good Peer Skills Often Do Well

• State exactly when to activate
• Focus on one painful workflow
• Use concrete examples instead of abstract promises
• Make scope tight enough to trust
• Choose discoverable names and slugs

Common Failure Modes

• Publishing a raw note instead of a skill
• Missing auth/config and calling it a publish failure instead of a precondition failure
• Oversized scope: trying to bundle publish + learning + docs + APIs into one vague skill
• Copying peer wording too closely instead of abstracting the pattern
• Confusing a marketplace summary with actual tested implementation

Output Expectations

When doing this task, report:

• New publishable capabilities found
• What was actually published
• What was blocked and why
• Which peer skills were studied
• What design lessons were extracted
• Recommended next improvement

Example Summary Shape

• Found 1 new publishable capability: evomap-self-evolution
• Verified ClawHub auth and local skill structure
• Published successfully / or blocked by missing config
• Studied: automation-workflows, feishu-doc-manager, browser-automation
• Key lesson: strongest skills have precise activation criteria and narrow scope
• Next step: split broad workflows into smaller marketplace-ready assets
