agent-ebpf self-learning.instructions.md

A project-local record of past task and command results, including failures, fixes, and recurring patterns. It keeps this history in files under the project’s .claude/learning/ folder.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to log task outcomes, review pass rates and recurring errors, and show a stored hint before retrying a previously failed action.
Why use it?
It reduces repeated investigation by preserving fixes for earlier failures and recording which commands have worked. It also makes useful decisions and answers available in later sessions.

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 C, and why

agent-ebpf self-learning.instructions.md scanned grade C with 1 finding 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 yesterday.

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.

Hidden instructionshighPrompt injection

Directives inside HTML comments, invisible characters or bidirectional overrides are read by the model and not by the person reviewing the file.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 212 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

self-learning

Self-Learning

A small, project-agnostic accumulated-experience store. The goal: the second time something fails, fixing it is instant because the fix is already written down — and reliable commands don't need re-verifying every session.

Storage layout

All state lives under .claude/learning/ in the target project (create it on first use):

.claude/learning/
  runs.jsonl              append-only log of recorded outcomes (gitignore this)
  patterns.md             auto-generated report (gitignore this)
  session-learnings.md    human/agent-curated decisions and fixes (commit this)
  knowledge-cache.md      cached answers to repeated questions (commit this)
  skill-feedback.jsonl    user negative reactions to agent/skill behavior (gitignore)
  task-skill-proposals.json  proposed skills for the current task (gitignore)

Add .claude/learning/runs.jsonl, .claude/learning/patterns.md, .claude/learning/skill-feedback.jsonl, and .claude/learning/task-skill-proposals.json to .gitignore if not already ignored — they're machine-local history. session-learnings.md and knowledge-cache.md should be committed: they're durable, reviewable output.

Run record schema (one JSON object per line in runs.jsonl)

{"ts": "2026-06-11T14:32:00", "skill": "terraform-plan-review", "action": "plan",
 "rc": 0, "duration": 4.2, "error": "", "hint": "", "note": "", "tokens": 12345,
 "metadata": {"invoked": true}}
  • skill/action: a short identifier for what was run (e.g. skill name + subcommand, or "task" + a short task name).
  • metadata.invoked: set to true when this skill was actually invoked in the session (not merely listed in context). Cost attribution uses this to distinguish active skills from enabled-but-unused skills.
  • rc: 0 for success, non-zero for failure.
  • error: first meaningful error line (truncate to ~200 chars), empty on success.
  • hint: a short fix description if one is known (see "Deriving hints" below); empty if none.
  • note: optional free-text context.
  • tokens: optional total token count (input + output + cache write + cache read) attributable to this run — see "Recording token usage" below. Omit if it can't be determined.

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.

agent-ebpf self-learning.instructions.md is an instructions file published in the GitHub repository ourobx/agent-ebpf (1 stars, last pushed 7d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 2,381 tokens to every session, about $0.0119 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it C with 1 finding (hidden instructions). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
