gradient

name	gradient
description	Gradient descent inspired iterative refinement - gradually improve ideas, text, and solutions through multiple refinement cycles. Use when you want to iteratively improve something, get constructive critique, compare versions, or progressively enhance your work.

Gradient Skill

Iteratively refines ideas, text, and solutions through multiple improvement cycles. Inspired by gradient descent — small targeted steps toward a goal.

Usage

python3 _scripts/gradient.py --file draft.md --refine
python3 _scripts/gradient.py --text "My idea" --iterations 3

Options

• --text TEXT — Text to refine directly
• --file FILE — File to read content from
• --refine — Single refinement iteration
• --iterations N — Number of refinement cycles
• --critique — Provide feedback without rewriting
• --compare FILE — A/B comparison of two versions
• --enhance — Focus on specific aspects (--aspects clarity depth practicality)
• --progressive — Iterate until convergence
• --goal TEXT — Goal for the refinement
• --save — Save output to vault
