I've just released the first version of a new Claude Code plugin that helps it remember what it was doing yesterday, why it changed direction, and every conversation it has with you.

@s.ly the writing-skills tends to write skills … shouldnt it try to write (or refactor into) subagent and slash commands too? shouldnt those b other skills as well? i get so frustrated when claude doesnt know how to claude himself

I'm ready to accept a definition of "agent" that I think is widely-enough agreed upon to be useful, at least in the AI engineering space:

An LLM agent runs tools in a loop to achieve a goal

(I've been dismissing the term as hopelessly ambiguous for years) simonwillison.net/2025/Sep/18/...
I think “agent” may finally have a widely enough agreed upon definition to be useful jargon now
I’ve noticed something interesting over the past few weeks: I’ve started using the term “agent” in conversations where I don’t feel the need to then define it, roll my eyes …
