self-improvement
Captures learnings, errors, and corrections to enable continuous improvement. Use when: (1) A command or operation fails unexpectedly, (2) User corrects Claude ('No, that's wrong...', 'Actually...'), (3) User requests a capability that doesn't exist, (4) An external API or tool fails, (5) Claude realizes its knowledge is outdated or incorrect, (6) A better approach is discovered for a recurring task. Also review learnings before major tasks.
What this skill does
# Self-Improvement Skill Capture non-obvious lessons, failures, and feature requests in a small local knowledge base so the same mistakes are less likely to repeat. ## When to Use - A command, tool, or integration fails in a way worth remembering - The user corrects an assumption or teaches a project-specific convention - You discover a better repeatable workflow - The user asks for a missing capability that should be tracked - You are starting work in an area with known prior learnings ## Storage Keep entries in a local `.learnings/` directory: - `.learnings/LEARNINGS.md` - `.learnings/ERRORS.md` - `.learnings/FEATURE_REQUESTS.md` Create the directory on first use if it does not exist. ## Record Types ### Learning Use for corrections, conventions, and better practices. ```markdown ## [LRN-YYYYMMDD-XXX] category **Logged**: ISO-8601 timestamp **Priority**: low | medium | high | critical **Status**: pending **Area**: frontend | backend | infra | tests | docs | config ### Summary One-line learning ### Details What happened and what is now known to be correct ### Suggested Action Specific follow-up or rule ### Metadata - Source: conversation | error | user_feedback - Related Files: path/to/file.ext - Tags: tag1, tag2 - See Also: LRN-20250110-001 ``` ### Error Use for reproducible failures or flaky workflows. ```markdown ## [ERR-YYYYMMDD-XXX] tool_or_workflow **Logged**: ISO-8601 timestamp **Priority**: high **Status**: pending **Area**: frontend | backend | infra | tests | docs | config ### Summary Short failure description ### Error Exact error text or symptoms ### Context - Operation attempted - Inputs or environment details ### Suggested Fix Likely next step ``` ### Feature Request Use for missing capabilities the user wants tracked. ```markdown ## [FEAT-YYYYMMDD-XXX] capability_name **Logged**: ISO-8601 timestamp **Priority**: medium **Status**: pending **Area**: frontend | backend | infra | tests | docs | config ### Requested Capability What the user wanted ### User Context Why it matters ### Suggested Implementation Likely extension point or implementation direction ``` ## Workflow 1. Log the learning as soon as the context is clear. 2. Link related entries with `See Also` when patterns repeat. 3. Update status when the issue is resolved, rejected, or turned into a reusable rule. 4. Review `.learnings/` before major work in a familiar problem area. ## Promotion Rules If a learning becomes broadly reusable: - distill it into a concise rule - move it into the repo's shared guidance only if the user explicitly wants that promotion - update the learning entry to note where the rule now lives Recurring patterns are good candidates for extraction into a dedicated skill when the solution is verified, portable, and no longer project-specific. ## Safety Boundaries - Do not modify user-owned policy or guidance files unless the user explicitly asked for that promotion. - Do not log secrets, access tokens, private keys, or sensitive personal data in `.learnings/`. - Do not treat every failure as worth logging; prefer durable lessons over noise. - Do not mark an entry resolved unless the fix was actually verified.

jfrog
IncludedInteract with the JFrog Platform via the JFrog CLI and REST/GraphQL APIs. Use this skill when the user wants to manage Artifactory repositories, upload or download artifacts, manage builds, configure permissions, manage users and groups, work with access tokens, configure JFrog CLI servers, search artifacts, manage properties, set up replication, manage JFrog Projects, run security audits or scans, look up CVE details, query exposures scan results from JFrog Advanced Security, manage release bundles and lifecycle operations, aggregate or export platform data, or perform any JFrog Platform administration task. Also use when the user mentions jf, jfrog, artifactory, xray, distribution, evidence, apptrust, onemodel, graphql, workers, mission control, curation, advanced security, exposures, or any JFrog product name.
cupynumeric-migration-readiness
IncludedPre-migration readiness assessor for porting NumPy to cuPyNumeric. Use BEFORE substantial porting work begins when the user asks whether code will scale on GPU, whether they should migrate to cuPyNumeric, which NumPy patterns transfer cleanly, what must be refactored before porting, or mentions pre-port assessment, scaling analysis, or refactor planning. Inspect the user's source code, look up NumPy usage, cross-reference the cuPyNumeric API support manifest, and distinguish distributed-scaling-friendly patterns from blockers such as unsupported APIs, scalar synchronization, host round-trips, Python/object-heavy control flow, shape/data-dependent branching, and in-place mutation hazards. Produce a verdict of READY, LIGHT REFACTOR, SIGNIFICANT REFACTOR, or NOT RECOMMENDED, with concrete refactor pointers.
alibabacloud-data-agent-skill
IncludedInvoke Alibaba Cloud Apsara Data Agent for Analytics via CLI to perform natural language-driven data analysis on enterprise databases. Data Agent for Analytics is an intelligent data analysis agent developed by Alibaba Cloud Database team for enterprise users. It automatically completes requirement analysis, data understanding, analysis insights, and report generation based on natural language descriptions. This tool supports: discovering data resources (instances/databases/tables) managed in DMS, initiating query or deep analysis sessions, real-time progress tracking, and retrieving analysis conclusions and generated reports. Use this Skill when users need to query databases, analyze data trends, generate data reports, ask questions in natural language, or mention "Data Agent", "data analysis", "database query", "SQL analysis", "data insights".
token-optimizer
IncludedReduce OpenClaw token usage and API costs through smart model routing, heartbeat optimization, budget tracking, and native 2026.2.15 features (session pruning, bootstrap size limits, cache TTL alignment). Use when token costs are high, API rate limits are being hit, or hosting multiple agents at scale. The 4 executable scripts (context_optimizer, model_router, heartbeat_optimizer, token_tracker) are local-only — no network requests, no subprocess calls, no system modifications. Reference files (PROVIDERS.md, config-patches.json) document optional multi-provider strategies that require external API keys and network access if you choose to use them. See SECURITY.md for full breakdown.
resend-cli
IncludedUse this skill when the task is specifically about operating Resend from an AI agent, terminal session, or CI job via the official resend CLI: installing/authenticating the CLI, sending/listing/updating/cancelling emails, batch sends, domains and DNS, webhooks and local listeners, inbound receiving, contacts, topics, segments, broadcasts, templates, API keys, profiles, or debugging Resend CLI/API failures. Trigger on mentions of Resend CLI, `resend`, `resend doctor`, `resend emails send`, `resend domains`, `resend webhooks listen`, `resend emails receiving`, or agent-friendly terminal automation.
alibabacloud-odps-maxframe-coding
IncludedUse this skill for MaxFrame SDK development and documentation navigation on Alibaba Cloud MaxCompute (ODPS). Helps answer MaxFrame API, concept, official example, and supported pandas API questions; create data processing programs; read/write MaxCompute tables; debug jobs (remote or local); and build custom DPE runtime images. Trigger when users mention MaxFrame, MaxCompute with MaxFrame, ODPS table processing, DPE runtime, MaxFrame docs/examples, DataFrame/Tensor operations, or GPU runtime setup. Works for both English and Chinese queries about Alibaba Cloud data processing with MaxFrame.
