New plugin: engineering-team/self-improving-agent/ - 5 skills: /si:review, /si:promote, /si:extract, /si:status, /si:remember - 2 agents: memory-analyst, skill-extractor - 1 hook: PostToolUse error capture (zero overhead on success) - 3 reference docs: memory architecture, promotion rules, rules directory patterns - 2 templates: rule template, skill template - 20 files, 1,829 lines Integrates natively with Claude Code's auto-memory (v2.1.32+). Reads from ~/.claude/projects/<path>/memory/ — no duplicate storage. Promotes proven patterns from MEMORY.md to CLAUDE.md or .claude/rules/. Also: - Added to marketplace.json (18 plugins total) - Added to README (Skills Overview + install section) - Updated badge count to 88+ - Regenerated .codex/skills-index.json + symlink Co-authored-by: Leo <leo@openclaw.ai>

Self-Improving Agent — Claude Code Instructions
This plugin helps you curate Claude Code's auto-memory into durable project knowledge.
Commands
Use the /si: namespace for all commands:
/si:review— Analyze auto-memory health and find promotion candidates/si:promote <pattern>— Graduate a learning to CLAUDE.md or.claude/rules//si:extract <pattern>— Create a reusable skill from a proven pattern/si:status— Quick memory health dashboard/si:remember <knowledge>— Explicitly save something to auto-memory
How auto-memory works
Claude Code maintains ~/.claude/projects/<project-path>/memory/MEMORY.md automatically. The first 200 lines load into every session. When it grows too large, Claude moves details into topic files like debugging.md or patterns.md.
This plugin reads that directory — it never creates its own storage.
When to use each command
After completing a feature or debugging session
/si:review
Check if anything Claude learned should become a permanent rule.
When a pattern keeps coming up
/si:promote "Always run migrations before tests in this project"
Moves it from MEMORY.md (background note) to CLAUDE.md (enforced rule).
When you solved something non-obvious that could help other projects
/si:extract "Docker build fix for ARM64 platform mismatch"
Creates a standalone skill with SKILL.md, ready to install elsewhere.
To check memory capacity
/si:status
Shows line counts, topic files, stale entries, and recommendations.
Key principle
Don't fight auto-memory — orchestrate it.
- Auto-memory is great at capturing patterns. Let it do its job.
- This plugin adds judgment: what's worth keeping, what should be promoted, what's stale.
- Promoted rules in CLAUDE.md have higher priority than MEMORY.md entries.
- Removing promoted entries from MEMORY.md frees space for new learnings.

Hooks
The error-capture.sh hook fires on PostToolUse (Bash only). It detects command failures and appends structured entries to auto-memory. Zero overhead on successful commands.
To enable:
// .claude/settings.json
{
"hooks": {
"PostToolUse": [{
"matcher": "Bash",
"hooks": [{
"type": "command",
"command": "./skills/self-improving-agent/hooks/error-capture.sh"
}]
}]
}
}
