Session Bootstrap

session-bootstrap

When to use

• The user asks "what's loaded?" or "what rules apply?"
• A new session just started and you want to confirm the evolution contract landed.
• Troubleshooting why Claude is/isn't following a stable learning.

What to do

1. Run: bash ~/.claude/evolution/bin/evolve-status.sh
2. Show the user:
   • kill-switch state
   • number of stable learnings in effect (grep ^- in ~/.claude/evolution/stable/global.md)
   • any project-scoped stable file matching basename $(pwd)
   • last 3 session records
3. If the hook didn't fire (no recent sessions.jsonl record), flag it and suggest checking settings.json for the SessionStart hook.

What NOT to do

• Do not read raw records (corrections.jsonl, outcomes.jsonl) and treat them as operating rules. Those are evidence, not stable guidance.
• Do not edit stable/global.md or any file under ~/.claude/evolution/stable/. Changes go through /evolution promote.
• Do not bloat the output. The dashboard is terse on purpose.

Inputs / outputs

• Inputs: none (reads ~/.claude/evolution/ state).
• Outputs: text dashboard to the user.
