Code Review
This pull request introduces a skill evolution workflow framework, including configuration files, a SearchQA task implementation, and utility functions. The review identifies critical correctness issues regarding index alignment when rollouts fail, which can be addressed by updating gather_with_semaphore to optionally retain None values. Additionally, high-severity issues were raised concerning shared state mutations from shallow-copying configurations, a persistent trajectories buffer that causes redundant reflections and potential overfitting, and incomplete TODO blocks for rejected updates and macro skill management. Other recommendations include fixing a configuration key mismatch, correcting a signature mismatch in BaseDataset.load_data, and reshuffling training data upon epoch reset.

Code Review
This pull request introduces a skill evolution workflow framework, including agent configurations, task definitions for SearchQA, and workflow orchestration utilities. The review feedback highlights several critical issues: a bug in gather_with_semaphore that filters out exceptions and causes silent data misalignment during evaluation; a potential crash in _extract_answer when handling non-string or null responses; infinite trajectory accumulation in trajectories_buffer leading to redundant reflections; an incomplete feedback loop due to an unimplemented TODO for rejected updates; a configuration key mismatch for the rejected update buffer size; and an abstract method signature mismatch for load_data in the base dataset class.
