Show how this hermit has evolved: cost trend and source split, routines and watches, top things produced, and what grew since hatch. Activates on messages like 'how am I trending', 'cost trend', 'evolution report', 'am I improving', 'proposal velocity', 'monthly report', 'what did I produce last month'.
Works with any agent that supports SKILL.md skills.

Install
Paste this into your terminal. It downloads exactly the version we scanned, not whatever is newest.
if [ -e ~/.agents/skills/'hermit-evolution' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'hermit-evolution' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named hermit-evolution already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/gtapps/hermitd' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet 'c2d971ab801daa0725f1554f92e405e62f76a3e8' -- 'plugins/hermitd/skills/hermit-evolution' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'plugins/hermitd/skills/hermit-evolution' ~/.agents/skills/'hermit-evolution' && rm -rf "$d"; fi
Codex reads ~/.agents/skills directly. For Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Antigravity or OpenCode, also link it. For Claude Code: ln -s ~/.agents/skills/'hermit-evolution' ~/.claude/skills/'hermit-evolution' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
