How does the Upgrader differ from a standard skill refiner?

While a refiner focuses on fixing bugs and improving existing code quality, the Upgrader focuses on adding new value, expanding capabilities, and evolving the skill's functional scope.

Where does the Upgrader store its analysis and implementation logs?

All progress is documented in a specific project directory located at .tasks/skill-upgrade-[skill-name]-[date]/ for easy auditing.

Can I review changes before they are applied to my skills?

Yes, the Upgrader follows an iterative process where it presents options for your approval before implementing any changes to the skill files.

What kind of upgrades can this skill suggest?

It analyzes 22 types of upgrades including workflow simplification, parallel execution, self-checking, context-awareness, and better integration with external tools like Git or Bash.

Is it possible to suggest my own custom upgrades?

Absolutely. During the 'Present & Gather Feedback' phase, you can choose from the suggested options or provide your own custom direction for the upgrade.
