Cortex Evolve

Cortex Evolve

Self-modify the Cortex plugin based on accumulated feedback and patterns.

Parse $ARGUMENTS:

"review" or no arguments

Review pending evolution actions:

1. Read ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/data/user-feedback.jsonl — show unprocessed feedback
2. Read ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/data/evolution-log.jsonl — show recent evolutions
3. Read ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/data/cortex-config.json — show current thresholds and suppressions
4. Analyze patterns.jsonl for promotion candidates (5+ occurrences)
5. Present a summary of what could be evolved and ask user for approval

"apply"

Process ALL pending user feedback:

1. Read user-feedback.jsonl
2. For each suppress_warning signal → add to cortex-config.json suppressed_warnings
3. For each teach signal → add to learnings.jsonl
4. For each project_rule signal → add to cortex-config.json project_overrides
5. For each tune_threshold signal → adjust cortex-config.json thresholds
6. For each negative_feedback → review the relevant rule and suggest modification
7. Log ALL changes to evolution-log.jsonl
8. Clear processed entries from user-feedback.jsonl

"undo"

Show the last 5 evolution actions from evolution-log.jsonl. Ask which to undo. Reverse the change (only if reversible: true).

"status"

Show evolution statistics:

• Total self-evolutions performed
• Learnings added by evolution
• Rules suppressed
• Thresholds tuned
• Current active suppressions
• Current project overrides

"suppress "

Manually suppress a warning category. Categories: git-safety, destructive-ops, workspace-management, secret-detection, claude-md-safety, backup-safety, scope-management, repetitive-editing, anti-pattern-match, repetition-detection

Ask if global or project-specific. Add to cortex-config.json. Log to evolution-log.jsonl.

"tune "

Manually tune a threshold parameter:

• scope_task_threshold (default: 5, range: 3-15)
• scope_word_threshold (default: 300, range: 100-1000)
• repetitive_edit_threshold (default: 5, range: 3-20)
• low_health_threshold (default: 40, range: 20-70)
• auto_suppress_after_ignores (default: 10, range: 3-50)
• pattern_promotion_threshold (default: 5, range: 3-20)

Update cortex-config.json. Log to evolution-log.jsonl.

Important

Use the self-evolver agent for complex evolution actions that require modifying hook scripts. For simple config changes, modify cortex-config.json directly. ALWAYS log every change to evolution-log.jsonl.
