# Agent Self Critique Loop

Run structured self-critique before final answers.

## Gap closed
no structured self-critique loop

## Core workflow
1. Clarify goal, constraints, and success metric
2. Gather available evidence and inventory assets
3. Produce the primary artifact (plan, table, pack, or patch)
4. Run safety and quality gates
5. Log outcomes and feed RSEO / forge gaps

## Safety
- No real secrets, private keys, or exploit/malware content.
- Prefer verified evidence; mark provisional claims.
- Super Alignment on dual-use, persuasion, and money movement.
- Not legal, tax, medical, or financial advice — operational tooling only.
- Human escalate on high blast radius.

## Scripts
- `scripts/validate-agent-self-critique-loop.sh` — structure smoke test

## Test
```bash
export SKILLS_ROOT=/mnt/c/Users/Josep/.grok/skills
bash $SKILLS_ROOT/agent-self-critique-loop/scripts/validate-agent-self-critique-loop.sh
```

## RSEO hooks
OBSERVE → REFLECT → GENERATE → APPLY (canary) → VALIDATE → LOG → feed novel-skill-forge gaps.

## Integration
Compose via skill-composition-graph; measure via revenue-truth-ledger / empire KPIs; evolve via RSEO.

## Success metrics
- Produces a concrete artifact each run
- Validators pass
- Improves leverage, truth,
