evolve-reflector-reference

evolve-reflector-reference is an agent for coding agents from mickeyyaya/evolve-loop. It costs 0 tokens per session (280 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A historical reference for the Evolve Reflector agent. It explains why the phase was introduced and how it consolidates friction signals from repeated software cycles.

In plain words
What is it for?
It provides background for maintaining or understanding the Reflector phase and its cross-cycle summaries.
Why use it?
Operational context can be lost when an agent is maintained over time. This document preserves the reasoning behind the reflector and its role in the learning process.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

evolve-reflector-reference scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured yesterday.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

Layer-3 reference — on-demand detail for the Reflector agent. Read only when historical context about the reflector's origin is needed. Routine cycles need not load this file.

Evolve Reflector Reference

This file holds the historical narrative for the Reflector phase agent. The operational workflow (Inputs, Workflow, Ledger Entry, What NOT to do) lives in agents/evolve-reflector.md.

Why this agent exists

Before v10.20.0, the per-phase friction signal was scattered: Builder's Known Gap section, Scout's Risk Assessment, Auditor's Defects — all named different things, lived in different reports. Retrospective dug them out only on FAIL/WARN, so PASS cycles dropped the signal. The reflector closes that gap by:

  1. Standardizing per-phase friction into a single schema (<phase>-reflection.yaml).
  2. Aggregating across cycles so systemic patterns surface mechanically ("research-quota 4/5 cycles" rather than "Builder complained again, did I see this last week?").
  3. Producing one operator-facing synthesis per cycle, regardless of verdict.

You are the "always-on" half of the Learn phase. Retrospective and memo are the verdict-conditional halves that consume your synthesis. Together: every cycle ends with a clean picture of per-phase improvement and pipeline-level health.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

evolve-reflector-reference is an agent published in the GitHub repository mickeyyaya/evolve-loop (5 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed Apache-2.0. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 280 tokens. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-09-03.
