Prompt Optimizer

An evaluation-driven workflow for improving agent prompts while preserving their task contract and instruction ownership.

Editorial review checked 2026-10-29 against this instruction snapshot. Supporting scripts and runtime behavior remain outside this editorial review.

What it does

This source separates new prompts, refinement, provider migration and failure diagnosis. It inventories context and constraints, then proposes a baseline and a small set of candidate changes. Stable repository references are kept explicit rather than copied into a growing prompt.

Best for

Teams with recurring prompt failures who can supply representative inputs, expected outputs and a way to compare alternatives.

Tradeoffs and requirements

Prompt wording may not be the actual bottleneck: retrieval, model choice, missing tools or an ambiguous task can dominate. Model-family notes are version-sensitive. Running external evaluations can incur costs even though reading this skill does not.

Unknown; inspect source requirements and supporting scripts.

Install from the source

Inspect the pinned source snapshot and its supporting files first. The command selects this skill through the open-source skills CLI. Node.js and agent-specific setup may be required. Installation can download code. Catalog ingestion never executes skill instructions or install scripts.

Suggested workflow

Record the required behavior and failure cases before rewriting. Evaluate a baseline, identify one recurring cause and compare a few targeted candidates on the same examples.

How to judge the result

Check held-out cases as well as the examples used for revision. Track constraint compliance, quality, latency and cost separately, and retain the baseline when a cleaner-looking prompt has not demonstrated an improvement.
