SkillOpt
Text-space optimizer that trains reusable natural-language skills
SkillOpt is a Microsoft research project for improving frozen LLM agents by optimizing reusable natural-language skill documents. Instead of changing model weights, it treats a compact skill file as the trainable state of the agent. The system learns from agent rollouts, reflection, bounded edits, and validation gates to produce better instructions over time. Its output is a deployable best_skill.md artifact that can be reused across agent tasks. The project is focused on making agents more effective through text-space optimization rather than traditional fine-tuning. ...
