Editor's note
Evolver is a Node.js framework that implements the Gene Evolution Protocol (GEP), a structured approach to agent self-improvement where experience is encoded into three named asset types: Genes (compact strategy representations), Capsules (bundles of related genes), and Events (logged evolution moments). Agents running inside Claude Code can connect via a Proxy mailbox API documented in SKILL.md, allowing Claude Code's skill system to trigger evolution cycles against any git repository. The CLI tool (`npm install -g @evomap/evolver`) handles rollback and blast-radius calculation using git history. Research backing the design, published on arXiv (2604.15097), measured 4,590 trials across 45 code-solving scenarios and found Gene-based evolution lifted one base model from 9.1% to 18.57% on a physics-solver benchmark. The framework also exposes an MCP interface for custom clients. Developers building autonomous agents, researchers studying iterative prompt governance, and teams who need an auditable record of how agent behavior changes over time are the primary audience.
