Skill Updater

Overview

Use this skill to refresh an existing skill safely: research current best practices, compare against current implementation, generate a TDD patch backlog, apply updates, and verify ecosystem integration.

When to Use

• Reflection flags stale or low-performing skill guidance
• EVOLVE determines capability exists but skill quality is outdated
• User asks to audit/refresh an existing skill
• Regression trends point to weak skill instructions, missing schemas, or stale command/hook wiring

This skill uses a caller-oriented trigger taxonomy: updates are requested by external signals (reflection flags, EVOLVE, regression trends) rather than self-triggered.

The Iron Law

Never update a skill blindly. Every refresh must be evidence-backed, TDD-gated, and integration-validated.
