README
workflow-improvement
A Claude Code skill that watches your session for friction patterns and automatically implements improvements.
Install
npx @anthropic-ai/skills add HJewkes/workflow-improvement
Usage
In any Claude Code session, say:
/workflow-improvementstart workflow improvementwatch for friction
To stop: `stop workflow improvement`
How It Works
- Observer cron fires every 3 minutes, tailing your session logs for errors, retries, and repeated tool calls
- Each friction signal is classified by impact and recorded as a structured observation
- Designer agents are spawned on-demand for high-impact findings — they design and implement minimal fixes (Makefile targets, scripts, CLAUDE.md updates)
- All bookkeeping (dedup, archival, state) is handled by a CLI tool, so agents focus purely on judgment

Runtime data is stored at `~/.claude/workflow-improvement/` (observations, designs, artifacts, instance state).
