continuous-learning

continuous-learning is a skill for Claude Code from x-cmd/skill. It costs 21 tokens per session (886 once invoked), scanned B, a copy of continuous-learning, Apache-2.0.

A Claude Code stop-hook workflow that looks for reusable patterns in completed sessions and saves approved findings as learned skills. A stop hook is an automatic action that runs when a session ends.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to configure automatic session review, set extraction thresholds, choose pattern types, review learned skills, or change where those skills are stored.
Why use it?
It helps preserve useful debugging methods, corrections, workarounds, and project-specific knowledge instead of losing them with the conversation.

Skill for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: PreToolUse hook event. Also seen: reads .claude/ paths; mentions Claude Code.

Not installable: its command points at a path on the author’s own machine, so it runs nowhere else. The line is /Users/affoon/Documents/tasks/12-continuous-learning-v2.md.

Getting it into your agent

There is no command for this one: it runs only inside a plugin, and the catalogue could not identify which plugin ships it. The source is linked below.

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 B, and why

continuous-learning scanned grade B 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 1mo ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (evaluate-session.sh), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

Continuous Learning Skill

Automatically evaluates Claude Code sessions on end to extract reusable patterns that can be saved as learned skills.

When to Activate

  • Setting up automatic pattern extraction from Claude Code sessions
  • Configuring the Stop hook for session evaluation
  • Reviewing or curating learned skills in ~/.claude/skills/learned/
  • Adjusting extraction thresholds or pattern categories
  • Comparing v1 (this) vs v2 (instinct-based) approaches

How It Works

This skill runs as a Stop hook at the end of each session:

  1. Session Evaluation: Checks if session has enough messages (default: 10+)
  2. Pattern Detection: Identifies extractable patterns from the session
  3. Skill Extraction: Saves useful patterns to ~/.claude/skills/learned/

Configuration

Edit config.json to customize:

{
  "min_session_length": 10,
  "extraction_threshold": "medium",
  "auto_approve": false,
  "learned_skills_path": "~/.claude/skills/learned/",
  "patterns_to_detect": [
    "error_resolution",
    "user_corrections",
    "workarounds",
    "debugging_techniques",
    "project_specific"
  ],
  "ignore_patterns": [
    "simple_typos",
    "one_time_fixes",
    "external_api_issues"
  ]
}

Pattern Types

Pattern Description
error_resolution How specific errors were resolved
user_corrections Patterns from user corrections
workarounds Solutions to framework/library quirks
debugging_techniques Effective debugging approaches
project_specific Project-specific conventions

Hook Setup

Add to your ~/.claude/settings.json:

{
  "hooks": {
    "Stop": [{
      "matcher": "*",
      "hooks": [{
        "type": "command",
        "command": "~/.claude/skills/continuous-learning/evaluate-session.sh"
      }]
    }]
  }
}

Why Stop Hook?

  • Lightweight: Runs once at session end
  • Non-blocking: Doesn't add latency to every message
  • Complete context: Has access to full session transcript

What ships with it

2 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

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.
