Learner: quiet distill of agent traces → one-tap Approve or Skip

A fleet relearns the same locks unless someone distills — and homework dashboards burn attention.

What hurt

@bfrench's Learner bot reads only new agent traces on a quiet schedule, scores short episode states (via TypeSafe Jev), holds soft hits out of chat, and surfaces ready skill patches as one-tap Approve or Skip — empty passes stay silent. Public template + Article with stealable architecture: delta not dump, route method→skill / personal→memory, never auto-UpdateSkill. Tip + template. Not affiliated with xAI.

What to install or create

Add Learner template → connect Jev (MCP/CLI) → daily distill under /workspace/learner/ → Approve/Skip exact patches only.

Bots

  • Learner

    Quiet schedule: delta-harvest traces, score prefs, propose exact skill patches as Approve/Skip.

Plugins

  • None on day one. Follow the first-run steps.

Routines

  • Daily (or quiet schedule): process only new traces since last watermark; empty passes stay silent.

The prompt

This is a tip, not a pasteable system prompt. The author did not publish one. Follow the first-run steps.

First run

  1. 1Read https://x.com/bfrench/status/2115588526804959293 (and the Article linked from https://x.com/bfrench/status/2115587794596962412); credit @bfrench.
  2. 2Open https://x.ai/bot/1FYbJrGfJ2LqsggZOXyMA and add Learner; follow its getting-started skill.
  3. 3Connect TypeSafe Jev (plugin/MCP/CLI with masked secret); prove with list_models or ask_jev before continuing.
  4. 4Schedule a daily/quiet distill pass; soft hits stay in holding — only ready items become Approve/Skip widgets.
  5. 5Approve exact skill patches you want; Skip the rest. Never let soft one-offs auto-rewrite shared skills.

Approval fence

UpdateSkill runs only after you Approve that exact patch text; Skip leaves the skill alone.

What to tweak

Steal quiet distill + one-tap Approve/Skip; soft hits stay counted, not homework.
