reflect

name	reflect
description	Learn from session corrections and update AI configuration files. USE WHEN user says 'reflect', 'learn from this', 'remember this', 'teach you', 'update skills', OR user wants to persist corrections, prevent repeated mistakes, OR mentions reflection or session learnings. Use when this capability is needed.

Reflect

Analyzes sessions for corrections and updates configuration files to prevent repeated mistakes.

Workflow Routing

When executing a workflow, output this notification:

Running the **WorkflowName** workflow from the **Reflect** skill...

Workflow	Trigger	File
Analyze	/reflect, /reflect analyze	workflows/Analyze.md
Review	After Analyze completes	workflows/Review.md
Apply	After Review approval	workflows/Apply.md
Auto	Session end (Stop hook), /reflect auto	workflows/Auto.md
Process	/reflect process, after CheckQueue notification	workflows/Process.md

Examples

Example 1: Manual reflection after work session

User: "/reflect"
→ Invokes Analyze workflow
→ Scans conversation for corrections ("Don't do X", "Use Y instead")
→ Presents Review UI with detected learnings
→ User selects which to apply and chooses scope (Project/Global)
→ Safely appends to target files
→ Commits changes with timestamped message

Example 2: Teach AI a new rule

User: "Remember: always use bun instead of npm in this project"
→ Invokes Analyze workflow (detects explicit instruction)
→ Shows: "Detected 1 learning: Use bun instead of npm"
→ User confirms, selects Project scope
→ Appends to CLAUDE.md

Example 3: After being corrected multiple times

User: "/reflect" (after correcting Claude on inline CSS 3 times)
→ Detects: "Don't use inline styles" (HIGH priority - repeated)
→ Shows preview of changes to CLAUDE.md
→ User approves
→ Creates constraint: "Never use inline CSS; use Tailwind"

Detection Patterns

HIGH Priority (Explicit Corrections)

• "don't" / "dont" / "do not"
• "never"
• "wrong" / "incorrect"
• "stop doing" / "stop using"
• "use X instead" / "instead use"
• "no," followed by instruction

MEDIUM Priority (Implicit Corrections)

• "actually, ..." followed by alternative
• User provides code immediately after Claude's attempt
• Repeated clarifications (3+ times)

LOW Priority (Preferences)

• "I prefer"
• "let's use" / "we use"
• "in this project"

Target Files

Project Scope (Default)

Detects and updates (in priority order):

1. ./CLAUDE.md
2. ./.cursorrules
3. ./.github/copilot-instructions.md
4. ./AGENTS.md

Global Scope

Updates skill files:

• ~/.claude/Skills/{SkillName}/SKILL.md

Safety Rules

1. Never edit existing content - Only append new sections/entries
2. Always preview changes - Show diff before applying
3. Git isolation - Only stage/commit reflect-modified files
4. Backup before modify - Create .bak file before changes

Tools

The skill uses these shell tools located in tools/:

Tool	Purpose
DetectTarget.sh	Find project/global config files
SafeAppend.sh	Safely append to markdown files
GitSafeCommit.sh	Isolated git commits
AutoReflect.sh	Session-end scanner (Stop hook)
CheckQueue.sh	SessionStart notification

Phase 2 (Implemented)

• Auto workflow - Automatic analysis on session end (Stop hook)
• Process workflow - Process queued reflections interactively
• AutoReflect.sh - Lightweight scanner for Stop hook
• CheckQueue.sh - SessionStart notification for pending items
• Queue system - ~/.claude/Scratchpad/reflect-queue.md

Hook Integration

Stop Hook (Auto-queue):

# Run at session end to queue corrections
# Use ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT} for plugin installations, or ~/.claude/Skills/reflect/tools/ for manual install
${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/reflect/tools/AutoReflect.sh "$SESSION_ID"

SessionStart Hook (Notification):

# Check for pending reflections on session start
${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/reflect/tools/CheckQueue.sh
