vibe-reflect-and-compound from ash1794/vibe-engineering is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned
mdr add ash1794/vibe-engineering/vibe-reflect-and-compound@git:20260925.f6554ff

Captures reusable knowledge after work is done — learnings from feedback or failures, resolved bugs (symptom, root cause, prevention), and recurring code patterns — into the project's persistent memory file. Use after feedback, a non-trivial bug fix, a failed attempt, or the third repetition of a pattern.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# vibe-reflect-and-compound

Every problem solved should leave something behind that makes the next one cheaper. This skill records it in the one place the agent will actually read next session.

## When to Use This Skill

- After receiving feedback on your work (positive or negative)
- After resolving a non-trivial bug: it took more than ~10 minutes, was hard to reproduce, or had a surprising root cause
- After a failed attempt or an approach that had to be abandoned
- When you implement the same code pattern for the third time
- At the end of a complex task

## When NOT to Use This Skill

- After trivial tasks (typos, renames, obvious fixes)
- When nothing new was learned
- During active implementation (reflect after, not during)
- For architectural decisions (use `vibe-decision-journal`, which keeps ADRs in the repo)

## Where to Save

Write to the memory file the current agent loads automatically. A separate `LEARNINGS.md` that nothing loads is write-only.

| Agent | Loaded automatically |
|-------|---------------------|
| Claude Code | `CLAUDE.md` (project) or auto-memory, if enabled |
| OpenAI Codex | `AGENTS.md` |
| Gemini CLI | `GEMINI.md`, or the built-in memory tool |

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add ash1794/vibe-engineering/vibe-reflect-and-compound@sha256:a0d186bb5a298b2a

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260925.f6554ff, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
