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.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00000 | $0.00427 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00000 | $0.00171 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00000 | $0.00085 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00000 | $0.00043 |
Grade A, and why
self-improvement 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 1mo 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
Run the self-improvement review pipeline now, in the foreground, against this machine's pending learnings.
First, check that ~/.claude/agents/learnings.md and ~/.claude/agents/learning-investigator.md exist. If either is missing, stop and tell me: "⚠ The self-improvement agents aren't wired up. Run /self-improvement:setup first." Do not proceed without them.
Then delegate to the self-improvement subagent via the Agent tool (subagent_type: self-improvement). Run it in the foreground so I can watch promotions happen live and interrupt if needed. Do NOT pass a transcript path (this is a mid-session manual run, not a session-end sweep) unless I explicitly ask you to sweep this conversation.
The subagent runs the same non-interactive pipeline the autonomous session-end hook uses:
- (Optional, only if I ask) sweep this conversation for anything capture missed.
- Read pending entries from
~/.learnings/{LEARNINGS,ERRORS,FEATURE_REQUESTS}.md— and, since this is a manual run inside a repo, the project-level.learnings/mirror too. - Dispatch a
learning-investigatorper candidate to judge needed-ness (conservative bar: high confidence + a recurrence signal + not a duplicate). - Auto-promote the qualifiers — append to the target CLAUDE.md, log a
[PROMO-<hex>]to~/.learnings/CHANGELOG.md, remove from the pending file. Skip clear rejects with a[SKIP-<hex>]. Leave uncertain entries pending. - Report a summary: swept / promoted / skipped / left-pending, with targets.
This run auto-promotes (no per-item approval prompt) — that's intentional and matches the autonomous behavior. Everything is logged; undo any promotion with /self-improvement:revert <PROMO-hex>.
For raw autonomous capture (the passive side), use the separate learnings subagent — not this one.
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.

self-improvement is a command published in the GitHub repository trtmn/agent-plugins (2 stars, last pushed 11d ago), licensed Unlicense. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 427 tokens. 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.

checklist
Generate a custom checklist for the current feature based on user requirements.
clarify
Identify underspecified areas in the current feature spec by asking up to 5 highly targeted clarification questions and encoding answers back into the spec.
specify
Create or update the feature specification from a natural language feature description.
analyze
Perform a non-destructive cross-artifact consistency and quality analysis across spec.md, plan.md, and tasks.md after task generation.
converge
Assess the current codebase against the feature's spec, plan, and tasks, then append any remaining unbuilt work as new tasks to tasks.md so implement can complete it.
