A self-evolution pipeline that runs automatically after field sessions end. field-harvest (pattern extraction) → contention-layer (collision signals) → [Agent(subagent_type="challenger") + persona-innovator parallel] → synthesizer (challenger/innovator collision harvest) → Critic isolated Agent (SAGE automated critique) → harness-doctor (health check) → verify-bidirectional (consistency validation) → curator (skill lifecycle management) — 8 steps. Session learnings are automatically absorbed back into the FH ecosystem so the harness evolves on its own. In the main development environment, runs automatically at session end. For external FH users, proposes execution first. Triggered by "session harvest", "learning absorption", "fh evolution", or "harvest-loop". (The phrase "run the pipeline" is ceded to pipeline-conductor to avoid a trigger collision — for end-to-end verification sweeps use pipeline-conductor.)
Harvest Loop includes pricing or quota commentary; at least one code block. At roughly 1,682 words the SKILL.md is on the longer end of the catalog distribution.
Harvest Loop sits in the General category under the workflow-pipelines sub-topic in the ClaudSkills catalog. There are 10 related skills indexed alongside it; comparing a few before installing usually reveals which fits your workflow best.

What this skill does
Harvest Loop is a community-contributed Claude Code skill in the workflow-pipelines sub-category. It ships as a SKILL.md file that Claude Code auto-discovers under ~/.claude/skills/harvest-loop/ and loads when your prompt matches the skill's trigger.
Who uses this skill
The Harvest Loop Claude Code skill is built for Claude Code users and developers across all disciplines looking for general-purpose AI assistance. It's part of ClaudSkills (also referred to as Claude Skills or Claude Code Skills) — the open community-curated registry of 146,000+ SKILL.md files for Anthropic's Claude Code agent and the wider Claude ecosystem (Claude API, Claude Agent SDK).

When should I use the Harvest Loop skill?
Use Harvest Loop when your Claude Code task falls under the General category — specifically in the workflow pipelines area. Claude Code auto-discovers installed skills and invokes the right one based on the task description, so you can also ask Claude directly (e.g. "use Harvest Loop" or describe the task and let Claude pick). Browse related skills at /category/general/.
What is a Claude Code skill and how does the Harvest Loop skill fit in?
A Claude Code skill is a SKILL.md file that lives under ~/.claude/skills/<name>/ and tells the Claude Code CLI agent how to perform a specific task (instructions, prompts, allowed tools). Skills are auto-discovered at session start. Harvest Loop is one of 67,000+ skills indexed in the open ClaudSkills catalog, classified under the General category.
