The summary Claude sees to decide when to auto-load this skill.
Use when the user wants to set up the evolver in their project, optimize an LLM agent, improve agent performance, or mentions evolver for the first time in a project without .evolver.json.
Point at any LLM agent codebase. Harness Evolver will autonomously improve it — prompts, routing, tools, architecture — using multi-agent evolution with LangSmith as the evaluation backend.
