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.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00082 | $0.01210 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00033 | $0.00484 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00016 | $0.00242 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00008 | $0.00121 |
Grade A, and why
skill-evolution 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 source is not reproduced here
A licence we could not identify
The repository carries a LICENSE file, but it is custom or dual enough that GitHub cannot name it and neither can this catalogue. Unknown terms are not permission, so the body is not copied here. Read the licence at the source and decide for yourself.
What ships with it
7 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.
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.

skill-evolution is a skill published in the GitHub repository coco-research/coco (795 stars, last pushed today), with no licence file. It adds 82 tokens to every session and 1,210 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-09-25.
Other skills, from other repositories
git-github-flow
Use for branch prep, clean commits, PR descriptions, GitHub issue triage, changelogs, release notes, review response, merge readiness, or publishing a branch safely.
ship
Use when explicitly invoked to run the whole change ladder without stopping — ticket, plan, implementation, quality gate, runtime verification, review to lgtm — deciding every open question autonomously and recording each decision in proposal.md. Trigger on '/sw:ship', '$sw:ship', or a request to take something from…
context-guard
Installs Claude Code hooks that keep AI context files fresh. Two-tier enforcement — Tier 1 nudges at session end, Tier 2 blocks commits when structural files are staged without context updates. Includes content filter, drift check, structural change reminder, SessionStart health check, and the context-updater agent.
gitpretty
Skill "gitpretty" from nirholas/gitpretty, covering skill.md - gitpretty capabilities, what gitpretty can do, 1. beautify repositories, 2. smart commits and 3. git workflow enhancement.
git-conventions
Apply when committing, branching, or opening a pull request. Conventional commit format, branch naming, PR scope.
publish-to-github
Publish a prepared AI skill or rule repository to GitHub, or repair an existing publication, using available CLI, API or browser tools. Use when the user asks to upload, push, create a GitHub repository or make it live. Covers repository metadata and verification of the published result. Use the authoring modules for…
