Parallel Autoresearch Engine
SkillWeb & browsingRun the Parallel Autoresearch Engine — massively parallel SKILL.md optimization. Generates 10+ SKILL.md variants per generation, tests each with programmatic harness (no browser needed), scores with triple-run averaging, and iterates autonomously. Use when asked to run autoresearch, improve SKILL.md at scale, or start parallel autoresearch.

If any prerequisite is missing, stop and inform the user.
Running
Option 1: Full Autonomous Run (Recommended)
Dispatch the autoresearch orchestrator agent (.claude/agents/autoresearch-orchestrator.md) with context from eval/config.md, eval/napkin.md, and eval/scoreboard.md.
Pass any CLI arguments from the user (e.g., --variants=5 --generations=10).
Option 2: Single Eval Pipeline Test
VIBES_ROOT="${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT:-$(dirname "$(dirname "${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}")")}"
bun "$VIBES_ROOT/scripts/eval-parallel.ts" --mode=eval-only <app.jsx> <spec.md>
Option 3: Score Existing Generation
VIBES_ROOT="${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT:-$(dirname "$(dirname "${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}")")}"
bun "$VIBES_ROOT/scripts/eval-scoring.ts" "$VIBES_ROOT/eval/results/gen-N/"
What It Does
Each generation:
- Mutate: N independent SKILL.md variants (fix-targeted, structural, adversarial, etc.)
- Generate: Each variant × each prompt × 3 runs
- Evaluate: Tier 1 (static) → Tier 1.5 (SSR) → Tier 2 (data model) — all programmatic
- Score: Triple-run averaging with consistency penalty; fitness = mean - 0.5×stddev
- Select: Best variant replaces current SKILL.md; git commit on improvement
- Repeat: Until plateau (3 gens), max generations, or score oscillation
Monitoring
