What problem does it solve?

Create ShinkaEvolve task scaffolds by generating an evaluation harness (evaluate.py) and an initial solution file (initial.<ext>) from a user-provided task description, enabling rapid task setup for code-evolution experiments.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Generate language-appropriate initial.<ext> with an EVOLVE-BLOCK region and a stable I/O contract for the evolving task.
  • Produce evaluate.py to drive the evaluation loop, collect metrics, and interface with the ShinkaEvolve runner.
  • Support multi-language templates (python, julia, cpp, cuda, rust, swift, json) and optional run_evo.py and shinka.yaml for end-to-end pipelines.

Quick Start

Provide a task description and optional language, and this skill will generate initial.<ext> and evaluate.py scaffolds ready for ShinkaEvolve.
