Self-Improving Agent

Auto-memory captures. This plugin curates.

Claude Code's auto-memory (v2.1.32+) automatically records project patterns, debugging insights, and your preferences in MEMORY.md. This plugin adds the intelligence layer: it analyzes what Claude has learned, promotes proven patterns into project rules, and extracts recurring solutions into reusable skills.

Quick Reference
Command	What it does
/si:review	Analyze MEMORY.md — find promotion candidates, stale entries, consolidation opportunities
/si:promote	Graduate a pattern from MEMORY.md → CLAUDE.md or .claude/rules/
/si:extract	Turn a proven pattern into a standalone skill
/si:status	Memory health dashboard — line counts, topic files, recommendations
/si:remember	Explicitly save important knowledge to auto-memory

Installation
Claude Code (Plugin)
/plugin marketplace add alirezarezvani/claude-skills
/plugin install self-improving-agent@claude-code-skills

OpenClaw
clawhub install self-improving-agent

Codex CLI
./scripts/codex-install.sh --skill self-improving-agent

Memory Architecture
Where things live
File	Who writes	Scope	Loaded
./CLAUDE.md	You (+ /si:promote)	Project rules	Full file, every session
~/.claude/CLAUDE.md	You	Global preferences	Full file, every session
~/.claude/projects/<path>/memory/MEMORY.md	Claude (auto)	Project learnings	First 200 lines
~/.claude/projects/<path>/memory/*.md	Claude (overflow)	Topic-specific notes	On demand
.claude/rules/*.md	You (+ /si:promote)	Scoped rules	When matching files open
The promotion lifecycle
1. Claude discovers pattern → auto-memory (MEMORY.md)
2. Pattern recurs 2-3x → /si:review flags it as promotion candidate
3. You approve → /si:promote graduates it to CLAUDE.md or rules/
4. Pattern becomes an enforced rule, not just a note
5. MEMORY.md entry removed → frees space for new learnings

Core Concepts
Auto-memory is capture, not curation

Auto-memory is excellent at recording what Claude learns. But it has no judgment about:

Which learnings are temporary vs. permanent
Which patterns should become enforced rules
When the 200-line limit is wasting space on stale entries
Which solutions are good enough to become reusable skills

That's what this plugin does.

Promotion = graduation

When you promote a learning, it moves from Claude's scratchpad (MEMORY.md) to your project's rule system (CLAUDE.md or .claude/rules/). The difference matters:

MEMORY.md: "I noticed this project uses pnpm" (background context)
CLAUDE.md: "Use pnpm, not npm" (enforced instruction)

Promoted rules have higher priority and load in full (not truncated at 200 lines).

Rules directory for scoped knowledge

Not everything belongs in CLAUDE.md. Use .claude/rules/ for patterns that only apply to specific file types:

# .claude/rules/api-testing.md
---
paths:
  - "src/api/**/*.test.ts"
  - "tests/api/**/*"
---
- Use supertest for API endpoint testing
- Mock external services with msw
- Always test error responses, not just happy paths


This loads only when Claude works with API test files — zero overhead otherwise.

Agents
memory-analyst

Analyzes MEMORY.md and topic files to identify:

Entries that recur across sessions (promotion candidates)
Stale entries referencing deleted files or old patterns
Related entries that should be consolidated
Gaps between what MEMORY.md knows and what CLAUDE.md enforces
skill-extractor

Takes a proven pattern and generates a complete skill:

SKILL.md with proper frontmatter
Reference documentation
Examples and edge cases
Ready for /plugin install or clawhub publish
Hooks
error-capture (PostToolUse → Bash)

Monitors command output for errors. When detected, appends a structured entry to auto-memory with:

The command that failed
Error output (truncated)
Timestamp and context
Suggested category

Token overhead: Zero on success. ~30 tokens only when an error is detected.
