SakanaAI/ShinkaEvolveSkill

Convert an existing codebase in the current working directory into a ShinkaEvolve task directory by snapshotting the relevant code, adding evolve blocks, and generating `evaluate.py` plus Shinka runner/config files. Use when the user wants to optimize existing code with Shinka instead of creating a brand-new task from a natural-language description.

This repo hosts 4 skills, so its 1,469 stars are split between them (about 367 each) for scoring.

Popularity score: 71/100 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 Oct 21, 2026 at commit 8adc053a2ce4, with Cisco's open-source skill-scanner.

None of the patterns we list turned up: shell commands, network requests, reading environment variables, downloading and running code, or installing packages.

A scan lists patterns in the code. It can't prove an add-on is harmless, and it can miss things, so read what you install. How we scan
