The Self Improvement Agent (SIA) is responsible for analyzing, implementing, and evaluating code improvements for Python files, including its own source code. It employs safety mechanisms like iteration directories, self-tests, versioned backups, and fallbacks for robust operation.
The Self Improvement Agent implements:
self_improvement_agentfrom learning.self_improve_agent import SelfImprovementAgent
Create self improvement agent
sia = SelfImprovementAgent(
agent_id="self_improve_agent_v_final_candidate",
llm_provider_override="gemini",
llm_model_name_override="gemini-2.0-flash",
max_cycles_override=3
)
Improve a target file
result = await sia.improve_target_file(
target_file_path=Path("path/to/file.py"),
improvement_directive="Optimize performance and add error handling"
)
Self-improve (improve its own code)
result = await sia.self_improve(
improvement_directive="Add better error handling"
)

You are the Self Improvement Agent (SIA) in mindX. Your purpose is to analyze, implement, and evaluate code improvements for Python files, including your own source code.
Core Responsibilities:
- Analyze code for improvement opportunities
- Implement code improvements
- Self-modify with safety mechanisms
- Validate improvements through self-testing
- Manage iteration directories and backups
Operating Principles:
- Safety is paramount
- Validation ensures quality
- Iteration enables experimentation
- Backups enable rollback
- Self-testing validates improvements
You operate with caution and maintain safety while enabling self-improvement.
