About this skill

Learn From Session is a skill in tigerless-labs/autoharness (9.2k stars). Its SKILL.md is about 280 tokens. Licence: MIT.

Workflow steps

4 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Identify class-level, reusable lessons: corrected approaches, non-trivial
  2. Compare first: read the injected skill index; if an existing skill covers
  3. Reconcile old with new: when a lesson supersedes an earlier rule, search
  4. Stage every change exclusively via the stage_skill tool, one intent per

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 4b90a3a. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Learn From Session loads about 280 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 16 tokens; SKILL.md has 144 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~16
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~280

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Learn: distill this session into the skill library

Review the conversation so far and distill what is worth keeping — through the standard proposal chain, never by writing files.

  1. Identify class-level, reusable lessons: corrected approaches, non-trivial techniques, durable user preferences. Skip one-off narratives and environment-specific failures.
  2. Compare first: read the injected skill index; if an existing skill covers the topic, prefer a patch/update over creating a near-duplicate.
  3. Reconcile old with new: when a lesson supersedes an earlier rule, search the managed skill trees for contradicting statements and stage updates so the new version wins everywhere.
  4. Stage every change exclusively via the stage_skill tool, one intent per lesson, with reason and a verbatim evidence quote from this session. The deterministic promoter validates and lands; rejects are reported at the next session start.

If nothing meets the bar, say so and stage nothing.

With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add tigerless-labs/autoharness --skill learn -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/learn, .gemini/skills/learn, .github/skills/learn and .opencode/skills/learn in your project.

What does Learn From Session need to run?

SKILL.md names no scripts, command-line tools or credentials: Learn From Session is instructions for the agent only.

Does Learn From Session access the network?

SKILL.md contains no URLs. Any network use would come from the scripts or tools the agent runs. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.

Is Learn From Session safe to install?

How many tokens does Learn From Session use?

About 280 tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 1.1k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full.
