We implement an instrumented workflow for Microsoft SkillOpt end to end. We set up the repository, connect OpenAI-compatible model access, and configure the optimizer and target models. We evaluate the original seed skill as a baseline, then run a real optimization loop with rollout, reflection, aggregation, selection, updating, and validation-based gating. We inspect training history, visualize accuracy, edit-budget behavior, and token usage, then compare the evolved skill against the baseline.
