rewrite

rewrite is a skill for Claude Code from robinslange/learning-loop. It costs 67 tokens per session (2,612 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A command for correcting an outdated belief across stored notes, preferences, and conversation history. A supersession is a record that marks an older belief as replaced without rewriting the original conversation.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when a pattern, preference, or belief has changed and the correction should be applied to durable notes, automatic memory, and retrieved past conversations.
Why use it?
It helps keep future answers from relying on information that has been corrected while preserving the historical record of what was previously said.

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

rewrite 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.

Rewrite: Context Gene Editing

When a belief turns out to be wrong (or refined), the wrong version sits in three places: the vault as durable notes, the auto-memory as preferences/feedback, and the episodic history as past conversations the LLM may resurface. This skill edits all three coherently.

The Katsuno-Mendelzon split:

  • Vault and auto-memory use revision semantics: actively rewritten or archived. The world model changes.
  • Episodic memory is append-only history: update semantics. We do not edit past conversations; we annotate them via the supersessions table so future retrievals carry the correction inline.

When to Use

  • /learning-loop:rewrite "old pattern" "new pattern": full form, with reason inferred
  • /learning-loop:rewrite "old pattern" "new pattern" "reason": explicit reason for the supersession record
  • /learning-loop:rewrite: no args, infer the change from recent conversation context

Process

Phase 1: Frame the Change

If args are provided, parse old_pattern, new_pattern, optional reason.

If no args, read the conversation. The user just learned something that contradicts a prior belief. Identify:

  • The OLD pattern (the belief being retracted/refined)
  • The NEW pattern (the replacement)
  • The REASON (what evidence forced the change)

If you cannot find a clear correction in the conversation, tell the user and stop. Ask them to provide old and new explicitly.

Confirm the framing in one line before proceeding:

Rewriting: "<old>" → "<new>" (reason: <reason>)

Phase 2: Hit Map (parallel search across all stores)

Search every store for the OLD pattern. Run all four searches in parallel (single message, multiple Bash calls):

  1. Vault: semantic + keyword:

    ll-run vault-search.mjs search "<old pattern>" --rerank
    
  2. Vault: wiki-link/title hits: Use Glob for filename matches: **/*<key-noun>*.md in {{VAULT}}/

  3. Auto-memory: Grep the project's ~/.claude/projects/*/memory/ directory for substrings of the old pattern. Read MEMORY.md and any matching files.

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.
