evolve

evolve is a command for Claude Code from jcarlosrodicio/opencode-agent-orchestration-kit. It costs 19 tokens per session (1,501 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A controlled process for evaluating or improving the tools, commands, agents, and workflows that make up a coding-agent system.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps audit or evolve agent behavior, commands, skills, workflows, and shared instructions using repository checks, tests, and recorded iteration results.
Why use it?
It provides evidence, checks, and a record of changes before modifying the harness—the system that coordinates coding-agent work. This makes failures and rollback limits visible.

Command for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: $ARGUMENTS substitution. Also seen: agent in frontmatter; mentions subagents; reads ~/.codex paths.

Needs its repository: it runs a file that does not travel with it, so clone the repository first. The line is node scripts/preflight-audit.mjs --iteration iteration-XXX.

Good fit It helps audit or evolve agent behavior, commands, skills, workflows, and shared instructions using repository checks, tests, and recorded iteration results.

Getting it into your agent

It runs from inside its repository, so the clone comes first — what it calls does not travel with the file alone.

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 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 1mo ago.

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.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 168 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Evolve the OpenCode harness:

$ARGUMENTS

Run the AHE flow that matches the requested scope. The full flow remains mandatory for real harness changes; audit-only branches have explicit stop conditions. This is for agents, commands, skills, tools, workflows, or harness memory, not app features.

Preconditions

  1. Check whether the harness is in git with git status.
  2. If git is unavailable, do not promise automatic rollback.
  3. Identify or create the target iteration path under docs/ai/evolution/runs/iteration-XXX/.

Init/context policy

Before evaluating or proposing harness changes, record:

  • cwd: must be the OpenCode harness repo.
  • AGENTS.md: local rules and evolution boundaries.
  • git state: branch, pending changes, and real rollback ability.
  • validation commands: node scripts/check-harness.mjs, node --test scripts/check-harness.test.mjs, and needed replays.
  • validation expectations:
    • node scripts/check-harness.mjs is the cheap local smoke check;
    • node --test scripts/check-harness.test.mjs is the long checker suite and should run with an explicit time budget above the default harness timeout, record observed runtime, and not be classified as a functional failure only because cancellation happened near the time ceiling.
  • repo docs: docs/ai/harness/, docs/ai/evolution/, mechanisms.jsonl, rejected_mechanisms.jsonl, session-sources.md, and benchmarks.

Session Sources

/evolve is OpenCode-first. Its local default source is:

  • ~/.local/share/opencode/opencode.db

The primary evidence unit is an execution tree, not a flat standalone session:

  • one root session with parent_id = null
  • all child sessions and descendants linked through parent_id

session_sources may add optional raw exports from:

  • RAW_SESSIONS_DIR
  • /raw-sessions

Before invoking evaluator, stage normalized evidence with:

  • node scripts/collect-session-evidence.mjs --iteration iteration-XXX

The collector should emit:

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.
