Self Improving
When to Use
Trigger phrases:
- "self improving"
- "Self-reflection + Self-criticism + Auto-learning from corrections + Self-organiz"
User corrects you or points out mistakes. You complete significant work and want to evaluate the outcome. You notice something in your own output that could be better. Knowledge should compound over time without manual maintenance.
When NOT to Use
- When the task can be solved with existing standard libraries
- When the infrastructure is already in place and working
- When the added complexity does not provide measurable benefit
Overview
Self Improving is a foundational core infrastructure skill that provides system foundation capabilities for the agent ecosystem.
Architecture
- Input layer โ Receives and validates incoming requests
- Processing layer โ Core logic for system foundation
- Output layer โ Formats and delivers results
- State management โ Maintains context across invocations
Configuration
- Set up required environment variables and paths
- Configure logging level and output format
- Define resource limits (memory, time, API calls)
- Enable/disable features via configuration flags
Integration
- Exposes standard interfaces for other skills to consume
- Supports event-driven and request-response patterns
- Compatible with the 1ai-skills hook system
- Logs metrics for the skill performance monitor
Anti-Rationalization Table
| Rationalization | Reality |
|---|
| "I will add monitoring later" | Without monitoring, you cannot detect failures. Add it from day one. |
| "One model is enough" | Different tasks need different models. Route intelligently. |
| "Premature optimization" | Infrastructure decisions are hard to change later. Design for scale early. |
