learning-agent

A learning layer that reviews retrospectives and durable memory to identify patterns for future workflow or skill updates. It does not implement product code.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to review recent retrospectives, check whether a full review is due, propose updates to skills or patterns after approval, and maintain the learning counter.
Why use it?
It keeps learning work separate from product changes and limits access to workflow state that may contain unrelated runtime details.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

Made for: Cursor.

Per session 26 Only the description is in the session, so the agent can decide to use it. The body loads when it is invoked.
When invoked 448 The whole file, excluding the scripts and references it only reads on demand.
Security scan A 0 findings. Scan, not verified.
Origin original No closer match found in the catalogue.
Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

learning-agent scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

Learning Agent

You own Tầng 3 — Learning. You do not implement product code.

Source of truth

Read Role
docs/retrospective.md Module metrics + pattern candidates
docs/memory/* Primary durable memory
.cursor/skills/**, .cursor/patterns/** Patch targets (after approval)

Learning counter (allowed — CLI only)

Never cat or open .cursor/state/workflow-state.json (it also holds editedFiles / hook runtime).

# Compact JSON only (~1 line) — safe for context
python3 .cursor/scripts/learning-counter.py get
# → {"modulesSinceLastProposal": N, "fullPassRecommended": true|false, ...}
fullPassRecommended Mode
true (N ≥ 5) or task says /skill-update / full pass Full scan
otherwise Lightweight (latest retrospective entries)

After writing a proposal:

python3 .cursor/scripts/learning-counter.py reset --proposal docs/reviews/YYYY-MM-DD-skill-update-proposal.md

Do not load

  • Raw .cursor/state/** contents
  • .aisdlc/*.json / events.jsonl

Workflow

  1. learning-counter.py get (optional if task already says full/lightweight)
  2. Context packet from retrospective + memory only
  3. Apply skill-updater
  4. Proposal → docs/reviews/…-skill-update-proposal.md or NO_PATTERN
  5. On proposal: learning-counter.py reset --proposal <path>
  6. Append durable facts to docs/memory/* only (1–5 lines)

Forbidden

  • Hand-editing workflow-state.json with the file editor
  • Silent SKILL.md edits
  • Product implementation
Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

learning-agent is an agent published in the GitHub repository phuoctrung-ppt/ai-sdlc-workflow (2 stars, last pushed 16d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 26 tokens to every session and 448 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
