Shadowclone learns engineering preferences from coding-agent sessions you choose to share with it. It turns explicit guidance and corrections into an editable profile, and keeps a portable personal skill library in sync. Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, and Antigravity can receive that profile in ordinary sessions. Supported delegated runs use the same guidance.

The profile adds context to an existing model; it does not train a new one or guarantee that every instruction will be followed. With separate learning consent, useful sessions can update the guidance for later work. [Why I built it](docs/motivation.md).

Every source has its own setting, defaults off, and appears by name before consent. The default setup asks one grouped question for detected session sources, Git remote names, and existing agent context. It asks separately about skills and background learning. `init --advanced` offers individual source choices. The paths that may be read are:

## Quickstart
|
|
44
|
-
|
|
45
|
-
Install the global CLI:
|
|
46
|
-
|
|
47
|
-
```bash
|
|
48
|
-
npm i -g @shadowclone/cli
|
|
49
|
-
```
|
|
50
|
-
|
|
51
|
-
Verify your environment and supported provider CLIs:
|
|
52
|
-
|
|
53
|
-
```bash
|
|
54
|
-
shadowclone doctor
|
|
55
|
-
```
|
|
56
|
-
|
|
57
|
-
Grant consent for desired transcript sources:
|
|
58
|
-
|
|
59
|
-
```bash

Source detection checks whether a configured root has content. A directory check reads at most one entry to establish that fact and retains no name before consent. Agent transcripts can contain private code, credentials, internal hosts, and customer data. Shadowclone never copies raw transcripts into its store. Its SQLite index holds pointers and event kinds. Eligible excerpts pass through `resolveRedacted`, the single secret-redaction gate, before a model receives them. Tool results, file-read contents, thinking blocks, and data-access results are excluded from learning by category.

|
|

Learning sends eligible redacted excerpts through your own authenticated agent CLI. Evaluation also gives that CLI access to a disposable repository snapshot and sends generated code to judges without redaction. Use only repositories you are authorized to send to that provider. A remote action from `shadowclone run` needs separate approval for that run. There is no Shadowclone service, API key, account, or telemetry. The profile is Markdown under `~/.shadowclone/profile/`; you can read, edit, or delete it. `shadowclone forget --all` removes Shadowclone's local state and recorded integrations, preserving unrelated content and stopping on conflicting edits. Your original transcripts remain where your agents wrote them. [Privacy design](docs/architecture/05-privacy.md).

Only detected transcript sources are enabled by the first answer. Setup then imports supported repository guidance if present, synchronizes consented skills, runs a first learning pass when background learning is enabled, and installs global native guidance for detected agents. The first pass selects recent unprocessed steering and limits model calls to 12 or 90 seconds; scanning local transcripts can take longer. Reaching a model budget does not block setup. Later sessions continue bounded learning when the agent marks a useful session. No extra `learn` command is required to finish setup.

Use `shadowclone init --advanced` for individual source choices and the seed guidance wizard. Run `shadowclone wizard` later to change seed preferences and starter skills. Run `shadowclone skills configure --global` or `--repo` to configure skill roots separately. Managed policy may limit any setting.

Remote actions (push, open PR) require both a repository ceiling in `~/.shadowclone/config.toml` and an explicit per-run approval flag:
|
|
120
|
-
|
|
121
|
-
```bash
|
|
122
|
-
shadowclone run "prepare release notes" --approve push
|
|
123
|
-
```
|
|
55
|
+
Plain `shadowclone learn` updates the local index and prints a structural report without model calls or profile writes. `shadowclone learn --deep` works through the oldest unprocessed episodes in bounded batches, proposes changes, and asks before applying them. `--deep --apply` accepts that local write without a prompt. Explicit reusable guidance can become active from one session; inferred behavior needs three independent sessions. The processed ledger lets later runs continue through older history. `shadowclone remember --repo "Use complete variable names."` records a direct preference immediately.
|
|
124
56
|
|
|
125
|
-
|
|
57
|
+
The first setup pass starts at the newest unprocessed episodes so the next session can benefit quickly. Reconciliation batches run concurrently, then apply results in their original order. Completed checkpoints let a later run reuse finished model work. All model calls use `claude`, `codex`, or `cursor-agent` under your existing authentication.

Repository imports preserve your edits and rejected rules. The compiler selects global guidance, the matching Git remote owner, and the exact repository. Without Git metadata consent, working directories stay isolated. It caps compiled guidance at 16 KiB and drops whole blocks when needed.

|
|
|

|
|
130
|
-
The SQLite index stores file offsets, timestamps, and event kinds. Raw transcripts are never duplicated to a secondary store.
|
|
61
|
+
Native installation adds a small pointer and lifecycle hooks while preserving other instructions. Claude Code's `SessionStart` hook injects the current scoped profile into the main agent. Its `SubagentStart` hook gives spawned subagents that same profile without creating another learning request. Codex, Cursor, and Antigravity use their supported native delivery paths. A useful main-agent session can request bounded learning at session end. `shadowclone install --subagent` and `--auto-delegate` remain optional Claude repository modes.

Distillation excerpts pass through a deterministic sliced replacer before reaching any model. Secrets keep identifying prefixes (such as `AKIA` or `sk_live_`) while stripping high-entropy characters, keeping code context intact without leaking credentials.
|
|
63
|
+
Portable skills live in `~/.agents/skills` and sync to supported provider locations. A single edited copy becomes the source for the next sync; divergent edits are reported as conflicts. Existing user skills and plugin packages are preserved. Skill assessment reads only enabled roots, sends redacted `SKILL.md` content through the chosen agent CLI, and leaves technical or routing changes for review. [Skill maintenance](docs/skill-maintenance.md).

`shadowclone doctor` reports installation and engine status. `shadowclone context` prints the compiled profile for the current scope. `shadowclone history` shows local revisions, and `shadowclone undo <revision-id>` restores one when no later edit conflicts.

Transfer evaluation compares three matched setups: repository guidance only, that guidance plus the existing personal skill/context library, and both plus the Shadowclone profile. It freezes a source-backed coding-preference rubric before execution and saves three blinded votes per check. Correctness is graded separately. Missing grades are reported as ungraded, and a completed evaluation does not require Clone to win. [Evaluation design](docs/architecture/09-evaluation.md).

`shadowclone run "fix the flaky test"` runs a headless clone in a local worktree and records a receipt. The invocation approves one worktree, branch, and local commit. Remote actions also need a matching repository policy ceiling and `--approve` for that run. No action approval carries to the next run. [Acting policy](docs/architecture/04-acting.md).
