experiment-iterative-coder

experiment-iterative-coder is a skill for Claude Code from CamusGIT/EvoQuant. It costs 145 tokens per session (2,359 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of experiment-iterative-coder, Apache-2.0.

A code-improvement workflow that repeatedly plans a change, writes code, runs checks, evaluates the result, and refines it.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for complex coding tasks that benefit from several verified refinement cycles using tools such as Ruff and pytest.
Why use it?
It catches problems such as lint errors, failed tests, import mistakes, regressions, and missed edge cases during development.

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

experiment-iterative-coder 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.

Iterative Coder

Iterative code refinement through structured plan → code → evaluate → refine cycles. Each cycle runs objective checks (lint, tests) and self-evaluation, then diagnoses failures and plans targeted improvements. Reaches production quality in 3-8 iterations.

When to Use This Skill

  • Main agent delegates a code task prefixed with "MODE: MORE_EFFORT"
  • User selected "More Effort" mode for code generation
  • Task requires high code quality with verified correctness
  • Task involves complex implementation (5+ files, multiple modules)
  • You want to iterate on code quality rather than submit first-pass code
  • You mention "iterative refinement", "code quality loop", "plan-code-evaluate"

The Iteration Mindset

Code quality comes from fast feedback loops, not careful first attempts. A fast plan → code → evaluate → fix cycle beats spending 30 minutes on a "perfect" first implementation. The evaluate step reveals problems you cannot predict by thinking alone — lint errors, import failures, test regressions, and missing edge cases all surface immediately when you actually run the code.

Before Starting: Load Context

  1. Read /memory/experiment-memory.md for proven strategies from past cycles (skip if it doesn't exist)
  2. Identify existing tests, linting config (pyproject.toml, ruff.toml), or CI setup in the workspace
  3. Check available tools:
    ruff --version 2>&1; echo "---"; python -m pytest --version 2>&1
    
    If either is missing, you will skip that check during evaluation (do not fail the iteration).

Phase Decomposition

Before iterating, analyze the task and break it into sequential phases:

Task Complexity Recommended Phases
Single file, well-defined function 1 phase
2-4 files, clear interfaces 2 phases
5+ files, multiple interacting modules 3-5 phases

For each phase, define:

  • Name: concise label (e.g., "Data loading pipeline")
  • Goal: what "done" looks like for this phase
  • Verification signal: how to confirm the phase is complete (specific test, lint clean, output matches)

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.
