About arena
arena is a compatibility skill that delegates candidate generation, anonymous judging, selection, grafting, and verification to agi-mode. It is for workflows that use Arena; it preserves the caller’s task and scope and requires the agi-mode skill to be installed.

Details
From the project READMEArena
The maintained workflow now lives in agi-mode. Read and execute Arena, which owns framing, runner selection, isolated candidates, anonymous judging, selection, grafting and verification.
Preserve the caller's task, candidate count, runner preferences and scope. Calling Arena does not start an improvement loop; if already inside Hillclimb, return candidates and evidence to its existing record.
Resolve the sibling path or the registered installation of agi-mode. This compatibility entry requires that skill; if unavailable, report the missing dependency rather than inventing candidates or judging results.
