Adds a new /chronicle:improve prompt command that analyzes session history for friction patterns (user corrections, dev loop struggles, recurring issues) and suggests improvements to the project's agent instructions file.

Changes:

  • New prompt file chronicle-improve.prompt.md
  • ### Improve section in chronicle SKILL.md with 3-step workflow: detect existing instructions → investigate session friction → present & apply recommendations
  • Cross-reference to agent-customization skill for proper file conventions
  • Init skill updated to reference chronicle for session-informed bootstrapping
  • Registered in package.json with appropriate feature gate

Pull request overview

Adds a new chronicle:improve slash-command prompt that routes users to a Chronicle workflow for mining session history “friction” and translating it into concrete improvements to agent instructions.

Changes:

  • Registers a new prompt command (chronicle:improve) behind the existing session search feature gate.
  • Extends the Chronicle skill with an Improve workflow (read existing instructions → analyze session friction → propose/apply recommendations).
  • Updates the Init skill to point users to Chronicle-driven, session-informed instruction refinement.
