Individual skill
edit-manifest
Implements a predict-verify loop for harness edits. Every SKILL.md, rules/*.md, or CLAUDE.md change is paired with a predicted impact stored in a manifest. The next session verifies predictions against actual outcomes, and a validation gate accepts edits only when improvement is measurable. Runs automatically on harvest-loop Step 0-c and on explicit invocation.

# edit-manifest — Predict-Verify Loop for Harness Edits
> Implements two mechanisms from frontier harness research, named as in their source papers (both terms
> are the papers' own — verified 2026-06-17 against arXiv full text):
> - **Change Manifest** (AHE, arXiv:2604.25850): each edit attaches a manifest entry declaring a
> falsifiable predicted impact (expected fixes + at-risk regressions); the next round intersects it
> with observed task-level deltas to produce a per-edit verdict. (Paper: "the Evolve Agent produces a
> change manifest…".)
> - **Validation Gate** (SkillOpt, arXiv:2605.23904): a candidate is accepted only when its
> selection-split score is strictly greater than the current selection score (ties rejected); rejected
> edits are kept in an epoch-local buffer, not silently discarded. (Paper: "validation gate" /
> "held-out gate".)
