# ooo evolve - Evolutionary Loop
## Description
Start, monitor, or rewind an evolutionary development loop. The loop iteratively
refines the ontology and acceptance criteria across generations until convergence.
## Flow
```
Gen 1: Seed(O₁) → Execute(all nodes) → Judge → Gate
Gen 2: Wonder(failed nodes) → Reflect(active nodes only) → Execute(active) → Gate(all)
Gen 3: Repeat with a smaller active set; frozen PASS nodes are reverified, not regenerated
...until the outcome gate passes, the working set stagnates, ontology converges,
or max 30 generations is reached
```
## Usage
### Start a new evolutionary loop
```
ooo evolve "build a task management CLI"
```
### Fast mode (ontology-only, no execution)
```
ooo evolve "build a task management CLI" --no-execute
```
### Check lineage status
```
ooo evolve --status <lineage_id>
```
### Record an isolated full-graph benchmark control
Call `ouroboros_evolve_step` for an existing Gen 2+ lineage with
`benchmark_control: true`, `execute: true`, and an explicit clean Git
`project_dir`. Use a distinct clean worktree at the treatment commit. Normal
evolve calls keep `benchmark_control` false and never launch a control arm.
### Rewind to a previous generation
```
ooo evolve --rewind <lineage_id> <generation_number>
```
## Instructions
### Load MCP Tools (Required before Path A/B decision)
The Ouroboros MCP tools are often registered as **deferred tools** that must be explicitly loaded before use. **You MUST perform this step before...
