What this skill does


# Shinka Inspect Skill
Extract the strongest programs from a Shinka run and package them into a context file that coding agents can load directly.

## When to Use
Use this skill when:
- A run already produced a results directory and SQLite database
- You want to inspect top-performing programs before launching the next batch
- You want a compact context artifact instead of manually browsing the DB

Do not use this skill when:
- You still need to scaffold a task (`shinka-setup`)
- You need to run evolution batches (`shinka-run`)

## What it does
- Uses `shinka.utils.load_programs_to_df` to read program records
- Ranks programs by `combined_score`
- Selects top-`k` correct programs (fallback to top-`k` overall if no correct rows)
- Writes one Markdown bundle with metadata, ranking table, feedback, and code snippets

## Workflow
1. Confirm run artifacts exist
```bash
ls -la <results_dir>
```

2. Generate context bundle
```bash
python skills/shinka-inspect/scripts/inspect_best_programs.py \
  --results-dir <results_dir> \
  --k 5
```

3. Optional tuning knobs
```bash
python skills/shinka-inspect/scripts/inspect_best_programs.py \
  --results-dir <results_dir> \
  --k 8 \
  --max-code-chars 5000 \
  --min-generation 10 \
  --out <results_dir>/inspect/top_programs.md
```

4. Load output into agent context
- Default output path: `<results_dir>/shinka_inspect_context.md`
- Use it as the context artifact for next-step mutation planning

## CLI Arguments
- `--results-dir`: Path to run directory (or direct DB file path)
- `--k`: Number of programs to include (default `5`)
- `--out`: Output markdown path (default under results dir)
- `--max-code-chars`: Per-program code truncation cap (default `4000`)
- `--min-generation`: Optional lower bound on generation
- `--include-feedback` / `--no-include-feedback`: Include `text_feedback` blocks

## Notes
- Ranking metric is `combined_score`.
- If no correct rows exist, script falls back to top-score rows and labels fallback in output.
- Script is read-only for run artifacts (writes only the markdown bundle).

skill-development

Included

Comprehensive meta-skill for creating, managing, validating, auditing, and distributing Claude Code skills and slash commands (unified in v2.1.3+). Provides skill templates, creation workflows, validation patterns, audit checklists, naming conventions, YAML frontmatter guidance, progressive disclosure examples, and best practices lookup. Use when creating new skills, validating existing skills, auditing skill quality, understanding skill architecture, needing skill templates, learning about YAML frontmatter requirements, progressive disclosure patterns, tool restrictions (allowed-tools), skill composition, skill naming conventions, troubleshooting skill activation issues, creating custom slash commands, configuring command frontmatter, using command arguments ($ARGUMENTS, $1, $2), bash execution in commands, file references in commands, command namespacing, plugin commands, MCP slash commands, Skill tool configuration, or deciding between skills vs slash commands. Delegates to docs-management skill for official documentation.

reprompter

Included

Transform messy prompts into well-structured, effective prompts — single or multi-agent. Use when: "reprompt", "reprompt this", "clean up this prompt", "structure my prompt", rough text needing XML tags and best practices, "reprompter teams", "repromptception", "run with quality", "smart run", "smart agents", multi-agent tasks, audits, parallel work, anything going to agent teams. Don't use when: simple Q&A, pure chat, immediate execution-only tasks. See "Don't Use When" section for details. Outputs: Structured XML/Markdown prompt, quality score (before/after), optional team brief + per-agent sub-prompts, agent team output files. Success criteria: Single mode quality score ≥ 7/10; Repromptception per-agent prompt quality score 8+/10; all required sections present, actionable and specific.

adaptive-compaction

Included

Adaptive add-on policy and recovery layer that decides WHEN to compact, prune, snapshot, or fork -- replacing fixed-percent auto-compaction across Claude Code, Codex, and MCP-capable hosts. Trigger on auto-compact timing or damage: "when should I compact", "is it safe to compact now or start a fresh session", "auto-compact fires too early/mid-task", "switching to an unrelated task but the window still has space", "context rot", "answers get worse the longer the session runs", "the agent forgot the plan or my decisions after it summarized", "add a layer on top that manages context without changing the agent", raising autoCompactWindow to give the policy room, or installing/tuning a cross-tool compaction policy or PreCompact hook -- even when "compaction" is never said but the problem is context-window pressure or post-summarization memory loss. Do NOT use to summarize a conversation, build RAG, write a summarization prompt (decides WHEN not HOW), or answer max-context-length trivia.

AI Agentsscripts

agent-skill-creator

Included

Create cross-platform agent skills from workflow descriptions. Activates when users ask to create an agent, automate a repetitive workflow, create a custom skill, or need advanced agent creation. Triggers on phrases like create agent for, automate workflow, create skill for, every day I have to, daily I need to, turn process into agent, need to automate, create a cross-platform skill, validate this skill, export this skill, migrate this skill. Supports single skills, multi-agent suites, transcript processing, template-based creation, interactive configuration, cross-platform export, and spec validation.

llm-wiki

Included

Use when building or maintaining a persistent personal knowledge base (second brain) in Obsidian where an LLM incrementally ingests sources, updates entity/concept pages, maintains cross-references, and keeps a synthesis current. Triggers include "second brain", "Obsidian wiki", "personal knowledge management", "ingest this paper/article/book", "build a research wiki", "compound knowledge", "Memex", or whenever the user wants knowledge to accumulate across sessions instead of being re-derived by RAG on every query.

skill-master

Included

Agent Skills authoring, evaluation, and optimization. Create, edit, validate, benchmark, and improve skills following the agentskills.io specification. Use when designing SKILL.md files, structuring skill folders (references, scripts, assets), ingesting external documentation into skills, running trigger evals, benchmarking skill quality, optimizing descriptions, or performing blind A/B comparisons. Keywords: agentskills.io, SKILL.md, skill authoring, eval, benchmark, trigger optimization.
