Extract patterns from git history, PRs, and handoffs to create durable artifacts (skills, rules, hooks).
For single-session reflection, use Skill("reflect") instead.
Methodology: Use compound-learnings skill for frequency thresholds and artifact categorization logic.
Data Sources
| Source | Command | What to Extract |
|---|---|---|
| Git commits | git log --oneline -100 |
Repeated fix types, patterns |
| PR descriptions | gh pr list --state merged -L 20 --json title,body |
Lessons, decisions |
| Handoffs | .agents/handoffs/*.md (main worktree) |
Patterns, What Worked/Failed |
| Existing learnings | CLAUDE.md Key Learnings section |
Already encoded patterns |
Process
Step 1: Locate Main Worktree
MAIN_WORKTREE=$(git worktree list --porcelain | grep "^worktree" | head -1 | cut -d' ' -f2)
HANDOFF_DIR="$MAIN_WORKTREE/.agents/handoffs"
Step 2: Gather Patterns
Git history:
git log --oneline -100 | cut -d' ' -f2-
Merged PRs (if gh available):
gh pr list --state merged -L 20 --json title,body 2>/dev/null
Handoff files:
ls "$HANDOFF_DIR"/*.md 2>/dev/null && cat "$HANDOFF_DIR"/*.md
Existing Key Learnings:
grep -A 50 "Key Learnings" CLAUDE.md 2>/dev/null
Step 3: Analyze Patterns
Apply compound-learnings skill methodology:
- Consolidate similar patterns by semantic meaning
- Apply frequency thresholds (skip 1x, note 2x, recommend 3+, strong recommend 4+)
- Categorize into artifact types using the decision tree
Step 4: Present Findings
## Compound Learnings Analysis
**Sources scanned:**
- Git commits: X
- PRs: Y
- Handoffs: Z
### Strong Signal (4+ occurrences)
| Pattern | Count | Artifact | Rationale |
|---------|-------|----------|-----------|
| ... | ... | ... | ... |
### Emerging Patterns (2-3 occurrences)
| Pattern | Count | Potential | Notes |
|---------|-------|-----------|-------|
| ... | ... | ... | ... |
### Recommended Actions
1. **[Artifact Type]**: `name`
- Draft content: ...
Step 5: Create Artifacts
Use AskUserQuestion to confirm each recommendation:
- "Create these artifacts?"
If approved, create using appropriate tools:
- Rules → Edit CLAUDE.md or create lesson in .agents/lessons/
- Skills → Create in appropriate plugin's skills directory
- Hooks → Create in .claude/hooks/
- Commands → Create in appropriate plugin's commands directory
