README

Claudeception

A customized fork of [blader/Claudeception](https://github.com/blader/Claudeception) — a continuous learning system that extracts reusable knowledge from work sessions and codifies it into Claude Code skills.

Every time you use an AI coding agent, it starts from zero. You spend an hour debugging some obscure error, the agent figures it out, session ends. Next time you hit the same issue? Another hour. This skill fixes that by persisting discoveries as reusable skills.

Changes from Upstream

This fork customizes the original Claudeception with:

Skill-authoring integration — delegates skill creation to the skill-authoring skill for consistent structure, frontmatter conventions, and quality checks
Existing skills check (Step 1) — before creating a new skill, searches project and user-level skill directories to decide: create new, update existing, or add cross-references
Project artifact updates (Step 5) — after saving a skill, updates CHANGELOG.md and uses appropriate commit prefixes (docs(skills): or fix(skills):)
Streamlined frontmatter — uses metadata.version instead of top-level version, removes author, date, tags, and allowed-tools fields per Anthropic best practices
Concise research section — replaced verbose search instructions with a one-liner strategy
See Also cross-references — links to skill-authoring and Anthropic's official docs

The original's core concepts (trigger conditions, quality gates, automatic/explicit modes, retrospective) are preserved unchanged.
