encourage（encourage 搜索）

RU: Encourage

Add items to the encouraged list during an active loop session. Encouraged items get priority in opportunity discovery and override forbidden patterns.

Runtime configurable: Works with or without active loop. Changes apply on next iteration.

Self-Evolving Skill: This skill improves through use. If instructions are wrong, parameters drifted, or a workaround was needed — fix this file immediately, don't defer. Only update for real, reproducible issues.

Usage

• /ru:encourage test coverage - Add "test coverage" to encouraged list
• /ru:encourage --list - Show current encouraged items
• /ru:encourage --clear - Clear all encouraged items
• /ru:encourage --remove <phrase> - Remove item matching phrase (fuzzy)

Execution

CONFIG_FILE="$PROJECT_DIR/.claude/ru-config.json"

# Get arguments
ARGS="${ARGUMENTS:-}"

# Ensure config file exists with guidance structure
if [[ ! -f "$CONFIG_FILE" ]]; then
    echo '{"guidance": {"forbidden": [], "encouraged": []}}' > "$CONFIG_FILE"
fi

# Ensure guidance structure exists
if ! jq -e '.guidance' "$CONFIG_FILE" >/dev/null 2>&1; then
    jq '. + {guidance: {forbidden: [], encouraged: []}}' "$CONFIG_FILE" > "$CONFIG_FILE.tmp" && mv "$CONFIG_FILE.tmp" "$CONFIG_FILE"

RALPH_ENCOURAGE_SCRIPT

Run the bash script above to manage encouraged items.

How It Works

1. Config file: Changes are written to .claude/ru-config.json
2. Next iteration applies: The Stop hook reads config fresh on each iteration
3. Priority override: Encouraged items override forbidden patterns
4. Template rendering: Encouraged items appear in the ## USER GUIDANCE section

Troubleshooting

Post-Execution Reflection

After this skill completes, check before closing:

1. Did the command succeed? — If not, fix the instruction or error table that caused the failure.
2. Did parameters or output change? — If the underlying tool's interface drifted, update Usage examples and Parameters table to match.
3. Was a workaround needed? — If you had to improvise (different flags, extra steps), update this SKILL.md so the next invocation doesn't need the same workaround.

Only update if the issue is real and reproducible — not speculative.
