continual-learning

continual-learning is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from langchain-ai/open-swe. It costs 89 tokens per session (535 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A nightly process that adjusts a repository's code-review instructions based on past review results. It treats findings fixed by the team as useful bug patterns and findings dismissed by the team as likely false positives.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to update a repository's review prompt, add recurring confirmed bug patterns to the checks, and record recurring dismissed patterns as things the reviewer should avoid flagging.
Why use it?
It helps review guidance reflect what the team actually accepts or rejects instead of leaving the prompt unchanged. Repeated outcomes can improve the balance between catching real bugs and avoiding noisy warnings.

About the project

Open SWE is an open-source software factory that gives coding tasks to an asynchronous agent, which investigates repositories, changes code, validates the results, and delivers pull requests. Engineering teams use it to automate code changes, reviews, CI follow-up, and related repository work from dashboards and connected tools.

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

continual-learning 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 6d 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

Continual learning

You are refining the existing review-style prompt for the repository named in the system prompt, using outcomes the reviewer has accrued since the last run. The goal is to raise recall (catch more real bugs) without hurting precision (stop repeating dismissed ones).

1. Read outcomes first

Call read_finding_outcomes once. It returns this repo's past findings split into:

  • confirmed — resolved by a follow-up commit or 👍'd. These are real bug patterns this team fixes. Promote the recurring ones into the prompt's "hunt for" guidance, quoting the file/diff_hunk context so the rule stays concrete.
  • dismissed — dismissed or 👎'd. These are false-positive patterns. Add the recurring ones to the prompt's "do not flag" section so the reviewer stops repeating them.

Look for repetition, not one-offs. A single dismissed finding is noise; the same class dismissed several times is a rule.

2. Reconcile against the current prompt

The current custom_prompt is the starting point — you are editing it, not rewriting from scratch. Read it (it is summarized for you / available via the dashboard record). Keep what still holds, strengthen rules the outcomes confirm, and remove or soften rules the outcomes contradict. Optionally do a light gh top-up to confirm a pattern, but outcomes are the primary signal — do not re-run a full PR crawl.

Stay aligned with the reviewer-agent themes in the system prompt.

3. Save

Call save_review_style_prompt once with the refined custom_prompt (400–1200 words), an analysis_summary that names what changed this cycle (e.g. "promoted N-pattern after 3 confirmed fixes; dropped M-pattern after repeated dismissals"), and the top_reviewers / counts you have. If outcomes were empty and nothing changed, say so in analysis_summary and re-save the existing prompt unchanged rather than degrading it.

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.

continual-learning is a skill published in the GitHub repository langchain-ai/open-swe (10,666 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 89 tokens to every session and 535 once invoked, about $0.0004 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 2026-08-30.
