self-improve

self-improve is a command for Claude Code from pedrol-cmd/brain-drin. It costs 23 tokens per session (644 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A process for improving an agent setup by keeping changes supported by repeated evidence and removing changes that do not help.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to review recent session notes, knowledge files, the CLAUDE.md instructions, agents, and commands, then remove, rewrite, or consolidate weak guidance.
Why use it?
It reduces bloated or ineffective instructions by separating recurring signals from one-off events and corrected mistakes.

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

self-improve 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 4d 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.

Princípio

Sistema que aprende tudo fica gordo. A regra é: só entra o que prova valor. Tudo que não prova, sai.

Resultado esperado: CLAUDE.md e agentes menores e mais precisos a cada ciclo, não maiores.


Coleta de evidências

Ler .drin/memory-compiler/daily/ (últimas 2 semanas) e .drin/memory-compiler/knowledge/.

Separar em dois grupos:

SINAL (vale aprender):

  • Padrão apareceu 3+ vezes nas sessões
  • Pedro disse "exatamente isso", "perfeito", "assim sempre" — validação explícita
  • Abordagem resolveu problema que antes travava
  • Pedro repetiu o mesmo pedido de formas diferentes — indica lacuna no sistema

RUÍDO (ignorar):

  • Aconteceu 1 vez, contexto específico
  • Pedro corrigiu depois — aprender o erro seria pior
  • Pedro pediu para cortar, simplificar, parar de fazer algo
  • Específico do projeto atual, não universal

Análise do sistema atual

Para cada item no CLAUDE.md, agentes e comandos, verificar:

Pergunta Se não →
Isso foi usado nas últimas 2 semanas? Candidato a remoção
Isso está gerando o comportamento certo? Candidato a reformulação
Isso está duplicado em outro lugar? Consolidar ou remover
Isso está fazendo o sistema maior sem torná-lo melhor? Remover

Propostas — formato obrigatório

Cada proposta deve ter:

TIPO: ADICIONAR / REMOVER / REFORMULAR
ONDE: [arquivo exato, linha se aplicável]
O QUE: [mudança específica]
EVIDÊNCIA: [observado X vezes em [datas] / validado explicitamente em [data]]
IMPACTO ESPERADO: [por que isso torna o sistema melhor]

Nenhuma proposta sem evidência. "Acho que seria melhor" não é evidência.


Regras de qualidade

  1. Redução > Adição. Se o ciclo não removeu nada, o sistema provavelmente só inchou.
  2. CLAUDE.md máximo 80 linhas. Se ultrapassar, algo menos valioso precisa sair.
  3. Agente novo só entra se substituir comportamento manual recorrente — não por "pode ser útil".
  4. Comando novo só entra se Pedro usaria pelo menos 1x/semana.
  5. Toda adição tem data de revisão — se em 30 dias não foi usado, remove automaticamente.

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.
