Agent Lightning v1.0.1 marks the first official release of the Agent Lightning Skill, which helps coding agents optimize other AI agents.

Provide an editable agent and a benchmark, and the skill guides systematic improvements to prompts, tools, workflows, models, and reasoning settings—balancing accuracy, cost, latency, and reliability through measured iteration.

Install it for Claude Code, Codex, or GitHub Copilot:

gh skill install microsoft/agent-lightning agent-lightning --agent <agent>

This release also strengthens CI, packaging, release automation, documentation, and benchmark reporting.
