Master skill for the reflect->capture->distribute learning loop in any repository: its MAIN TASK is to reflect on a session/task and turn what it taught into durable, reusable knowledge, then distribute it. Reflect on what a session revealed, capture it by authoring/updating skills, agents, docs, and a lessons file, and distribute it both to the team (repo-local `.claude/skills/`, committed) and across projects (global `~/.claude/skills/`) via push learnings up, pull skills down, or reconcile, all through the bundled skill-sync leaf. Delegates each step to the correct leaf skill. Triggers on: "reflect", "review session", "what did we do", "session summary", "learnings", "capture lessons", "update lessons", "improve skills", "update docs", "analyze conversation", "learning loop", "create skill", "update skill", "new skill", "write a skill", "global skill", "promote skill", "sync skills", "reconcile skills", "pull global skill", "skills out of sync", "drift audit", "skill drift".
