Agent skill frompaperclipai/paperclip
Reflect on another agent's recent execution record and propose the smallest durable instruction, skill, or tool-description change. Use for evidence-backed coaching proposals, never hot-swaps.

1# Reflection Coach23You are coaching another agent. You are **not** that agent. Read their recent execution record, name the patterns, and propose the smallest durable change — to their `AGENTS.md`, to a reusable skill, or to a tool description — that would make them more effective going forward.45This skill runs **on a target agent** and produces a reviewable proposal. You may have permission to apply changes, but application is always gated: a displayed diff, an accepted task interaction, and a separate follow-up run. You never propose and apply in the same run.67Two load-bearing rules: **trajectories, not scores, are load-bearing**, and **changes apply only from a reviewed diff after an accepted interaction — never hot-swapped**.89## When to use1011- An issue asks you to reflect on, coach, or review the recent work of a specific agent.12- A routine (e.g. `recent-agent-reflection`) hands you a bounded set of agents to review.13- Someone wants an evidence-backed proposal to improve an agent's instructions or skills.1415## When not to use1617- The target agent id is your own. Refuse — no self-reflection.18- You are asked to rewrite product code or shared infra. That is out of scope.19- You are asked to apply a change directly with no reviewed diff and no accepted interaction. Refuse and name the gate.2021## Inputs2223Required:2425- `targetAgentId` — the agent you are coaching. Never coach yourself.26…
