# adaptive-agent A Claude plugin that lets your agent learn from its own runs: skill audits, a user profile, and always-on rules in CLAUDE.md. - plugin · `type=plugin` · Claude Code · ★ 5 - Author: truenorth-lj - License: MIT · policy=mirror · the beginning of the file is at the end of this page - Source: https://github.com/truenorth-lj/adaptive-agent-skill - Updated: 2026-04-15 - HTML: https://affpapa.org/en/nevibecode/plugins/adaptive-agent ## What it does Two skills ship in the package. `/skill-review` walks through every skill you have, checks it against the agent's memory, and patches what went stale. `/build-user-profile` reads your workspace — git history, project layout, tech stack — and writes a profile to memory, so later sessions open with your role and preferences already known. The third piece is behavioral rules. You paste the "Adaptive Behavior" section of `CLAUDE.md` into your project's CLAUDE.md, and from then on the agent edits a skill file when a step breaks on an API change, pulls known gotchas out of memory before hitting the same wall, and notices workflows that repeat often enough to deserve their own skill. Skill patches wait for your approval. Cross-session search over past conversations is not here — Claude's architecture does not allow it. Neither does background review: you invoke `/skill-review` yourself, usually after a batch of tasks. The profile comes from what sits in the workspace, so on a fresh project with little git history there is not much to synthesize. ## Install ### Claude Code (native platform) **Plugin marketplace** In the agent chat (not a shell): ```text /plugin marketplace add anthropics/claude-plugins-community ``` In the agent chat (not a shell): ```text /plugin install adaptive-agent@claude-community ``` ## When to use it - spot skills that went stale after an API change - write a known gotcha back into the skill that hit it - build a user profile from git history and project layout - turn a repeating workflow into a skill - apply a known workaround before a step fails ## Example prompts - Run `/skill-review` and show me which skills are out of date - Build my profile with `/build-user-profile` - We keep fixing the same thing — check whether it needs its own skill ## Source text · SKILL.md · MIT Below is the content of a third-party file.

Inspired by [Hermes Agent](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent)'s four-layer memory architecture, adapted for Claude Code and other AI coding agents through prompt engineering. ## Install ```bash # skills.sh (Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI, Copilot, 45 agents) npx skills add truenorth-lj/adaptive-agent-skill # ClawHub clawhub install adaptive-agent-skill-review clawhub install adaptive-agent-build-user-profile # Manual (any agent) git clone https://github.com/truenorth-lj/adaptive-agent-skill.git cp -r adaptive-agent-skill/skills/skill-review ~/.claude/skills/ cp -r adaptive-agent-skill/skills/build-user-profile ~/.claude/skills/ ``` ## Directory Structure ``` adaptive-agent-skill/ ├── CLAUDE.md # Always-on behavioral rules (paste into your project) ├── .claude-plugin/ │ └── plugin.json # Claude Code plugin manifest ├── skills/ │ ├── skill-review/ │ │ └── SKILL.md # Periodic skill audit and improvement │ └── build-user-profile/ │ └── SKILL.md # Build user profile from workspace context ├── templates/ │ └── user_profile.md # Memory template for user profile ├── meta.json # Skill metadata ├── LICENSE └── README.md ``` ## The Idea AI agents treat skills and memory as separate systems. They shouldn't. - **Skills** = procedural memory ("how to do things" — muscle memory) - **Memory** = declarative memory ("what I know" — conscious memory) - They should feed each other in a loop When a skill fails, the lesson should flow back into the skill AND into memory. When memory contains a relevant gotcha, it should be applied proactively before the skill hits the same wall. ### Three-Layer Architecture ``` ┌────────────────────────────────────────────────┐ │ CLAUDE.md — Always-On Rules │ │ Auto-patch skills on friction │ │ Apply memory lessons proactively │ │ Detect skill gaps from repeated workflows │ ├────────────────────────────────────────────────┤ │ Skills — Procedural Memory │ │ /skill-review: audit and improve all skills │ │ /build-user-profile: build who-you-are memory │ ├────────────────────────────────────────────────┤ │ Memory — Declarative Memory │ │ user_profile.md: role, strengths, preferences │ │ (agent's memory system, auto-loaded) │ └────────────────────────────────────────────────┘ ``` ## Setup ### 1.
