evolve-loop
mickeyyaya/evolve-loopPlugin
A self-learning development pipeline that gets smarter with every cycle. It calibrates itself against your codebase, dynamically selects the highest-impact tasks, implements them in isolated git worktrees, and blocks bad code through eval gates — then learns from each cycle to make better decisions next time. 4 specialized agents (Scout, Builder, Auditor, Operator) work across 5 phases: DISCOVER → BUILD → AUDIT → SHIP → LEARN. The Scout uses multi-armed bandit scoring and 8-dimension quality benchmarks to target your codebase's weakest areas. The Builder implements in isolation. The Auditor blocks MEDIUM+ severity issues. After each cycle, the pipeline extracts reusable "instincts" — patterns about what worked and what failed — that compound over time. Every 5 cycles, a meta-cycle evaluates the pipeline itself and evolves its own agent prompts based on measured performance. It ran 151 cycles on its own codebase, shipping 67+ improvements and raising its quality score from 83.8 to 94.4 — all autonomously. No external dependencies. MIT licensed.
Why this score
Popularity score: 58/100 from public GitHub signals only. It shows how widely used and maintained this is, not how well it works. Not included yet: the fake-star check. The security scan is shown separately and doesn't change the score. How we rank
Security
Scanned Nov 4, 2026 at commit 36eebb0512f4, with Cisco's open-source skill-scanner.
