OpenSkill (arXiv:2606.06741) studies open-world self-evolution where an agent builds new skills and its own verification signals from scratch, pulling verification anchors from docs, repos, and the web. It targets the common failure where self-evolving agents reinforce skills they can't actually check. When you auto-generate a new skill, also extract a checkable anchor, a doc invariant, a test, an API contract, so the skill can self-validate before reuse. A skill without a verifier is a skill you can't trust at scale.
