From superpowers-plus
Scans session logs, failure autopsies, and decision logs for recurring patterns; auto-generates skill updates or new skills to improve Claude Code over time.
How this skill is triggered — by the user, by Claude, or both
Slash command
/superpowers-plus:evolution-loopThe summary Claude sees in its skill listing — used to decide when to auto-load this skill
> **Wrong skill?** New skill from scratch -> skill-authoring. Post-mortem -> failure-autopsy. Skill formatting -> skill-health-check.

# Example: Pattern detection from failure log

Failure log, decision log, conversation struggles, recurring TODO deferrals.
| Type | Signal | Action |
|---|---|---|
| Repeated failure | Same root cause 2+ | Update failure modes |
| Missing trigger | Skill does not fire | Add trigger |
| Missing skill | No coverage | Draft via skill-authoring |
| Weak gate | False passes | Strengthen criteria |
| Process gap | Manual step | Automate in skill |
Pattern + Frequency + Affected skill + Update type + Change
Patterns detected: N . Skills updated: M . New skills: K . Failures eliminated: J
| Anti-Pattern | Detection | Correction |
|---|---|---|
| Over-fitting | Skill for one-time event | Require 2+ occurrences |
| Metrics-free update | No before/after | Add measurement-integrity |
| Endless self-improvement | Self-modifies repeatedly | Cap: 1 self-update/session |
| Ignoring data | Pattern found, no action | Generate PR or TODO |
| Failure | Detection | Recovery |
|---|---|---|
| Useless skills | Never triggers | Review triggers, add examples |
| Over-fitting | Created for one-time event | Require 2+ occurrences |
| No metrics | No before/after | Add measurement-integrity |
| Self-referential loop | Improves itself endlessly | Cap: 1 self-update/session |
