Workflow Improvement

Workflow Improvement

Team-based observation system that watches your session for friction patterns and autonomously implements improvements. The coordinator sets up the team, then moves on.

Activation

Trigger phrases: /workflow-improvement, start workflow improvement, watch for friction

To stop: say stop workflow improvement.

Setup Procedure

Step 1: Create team and spawn observer

1. TeamCreate with name "workflow-improvement" and description "Watches session for friction and implements improvements"

2. Agent tool to spawn the observer:

   • team_name: the team name from TeamCreate
   • name: "observer"
   • subagent_type: "general-purpose"
   • run_in_background: true
   • prompt: "Run python3 ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts/workflow-improve.py observer-init and follow its output exactly."

Step 2: Confirm to user

Tell the user workflow improvement is active, then stop — do not monitor the team.

Shutdown Procedure

When the user says "stop workflow improvement":

Step 1: Report and archive

python3 ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts/workflow-improve.py report
python3 ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts/workflow-improve.py shutdown

The report command outputs a markdown summary. The shutdown command returns JSON with cron_id for cleanup.

Step 2: Clean up

1. Send shutdown request to observer: SendMessage with type: "shutdown_request", recipient: "observer"
2. CronDelete with the cron_id from shutdown output
3. TeamDelete

Step 3: Present the report to the user
