upskill

Run the upskill workflow, which fetches merged PRs through the GitHub API, finds review comments the PR author acknowledged with a "**Valid.**" reply, and consolidates them into reusable patterns. Confirmed patterns are then written into review checklist and implementation pattern files.

The skill extracts validated findings from merged PRs, groups recurring issues into generalized rules, and classifies each as already covered, an enhancement, or a new addition. After your confirmation, it edits the target REVIEW_CHECKLIST and implementation-patterns markdown files directly.

Yes. Use --plan to run extraction and analysis without editing anything, or --dry-run to see the exact proposed text additions per file and section. Full apply mode also waits for explicit user confirmation before modifying any files.

The workflow requires git, the GitHub CLI (gh) with an authenticated session, and jq for JSON processing. It also checks the GitHub API rate limit before starting and stops if fewer than 100 requests remain.

No. A state.json file records the last checked PR number and run date, so each run only processes PRs merged after that cursor. You can override the starting point with the --from N flag when needed.

For 20 or fewer PRs, extraction runs inline in the main conversation. For more than 20 PRs, the workflow delegates extraction to a single subagent with instructions to process the full list and report progress every 10 PRs, avoiding context overflow.
