reflect

A command that reviews recent observations and updates the toolkit's understanding of project patterns. It can group patterns by project, promote repeated patterns, and flag old ones for review.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use `/reflect` to process observations, update project notes, promote patterns found in at least three projects, and identify patterns that have gone stale.
Why use it?
It keeps stored guidance aligned with what has been learned across multiple projects instead of leaving observations unorganized or outdated.

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.

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

reflect 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

/reflect Command

Architecture Note

The reflection agent CANNOT use AskUserQuestion. It auto-processes observations with sensible defaults.

Execution

Spawn claude-evolve:evolve-reflection-agent via Task tool.

The agent will:

  1. Read all observations in the toolkit
  2. Group by project
  3. Update projects/{key}.md files with project-specific patterns
  4. Auto-promote patterns seen in 3+ projects to universal (understanding.md)
  5. Mark stale patterns (90+ days without reinforcement) for review
  6. Report exactly what changed

Pass this context to the agent: "Run full reflection. Analyze all recent observations, update project files, and report changes."

Behavior Notes

  • Patterns in 3+ projects are auto-promoted to universal (agent cannot ask)
  • Stale patterns are moved to a "Stale Patterns" section, not deleted
  • User can manually review and delete stale patterns if desired
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.

reflect is a command published in the GitHub repository hknc/claude-evolve (8 stars, last pushed 7mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 11 tokens to every session and 218 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.
