Batch Edit Enforcer

Purpose: Multiple individual Edit calls instead of batch MultiEdit

Activation: Automatically activates when batch-edit-enforcer pattern is detected or user invokes /batch-edit-enforcer.

Status: Active - Auto-generated from pattern detection

Problem

Multiple individual Edit calls instead of batch MultiEdit

Severity: Token Impact:

Detected Occurrences

This pattern was detected in recent workflow history, triggering automatic skill generation.

Solution

Implementation Protocol

Detection

• Monitor for pattern: individual-edits
• Alert when threshold exceeded
• Suggest alternative approach

Prevention

• Pre-execution validation gate
• Alternative path suggestion
• Token impact estimation

Automation

• Auto-apply remediation when safe
• Log prevention to metrics
• Update pattern database

Usage

Manual Invocation

/batch-edit-enforcer
```text

### Automatic Activation
This skill activates automatically when:
- Pattern is detected in real-time
- Efficiency audit is running
- Self-improvement cycle is active

---

## Examples

### Before (Inefficient)
```json
[Pattern-specific bad example extracted from history]
```text

### After (Optimised)
```json
[Pattern-specific good example based on remediation]
```text

---

## Metrics

**Token Budget:** 5000

### Success Criteria:
- Pattern occurrences reduced by 80%+
- Token savings measurable in metrics
- No false positives blocking valid workflows

### Tracking:
Logged to `~/.claude/metrics.jsonl` with:
- `skill_triggered`: Skill activation count
- `tokens_saved`: Estimated savings
- `false_positives`: Invalid activations

---

## Integration

### CLAUDE.md Registration
Auto-added to skills list:
```markdown
- **batch-edit-enforcer**: Multiple individual Edit calls instead of batch MultiEdit
```text

### Pattern Database
Registered in `~/.claude/patterns.json`:
```json
{
  "individual-edits": {
    "skill": "batch-edit-enforcer",
    "remediation": "",
    "status": "active"
  }
}
```text

---

## Meta-Optimization

This skill is subject to meta-analysis:
- **Usage tracking:** If triggered <3 times in 30 days → candidate for retirement
- **Effectiveness tracking:** If token savings <500/trigger → candidate for revision
- **False positive rate:** If >20% → threshold adjustment needed

### Self-improvement trigger:
Run `/audit-efficiency` to analyse this skill's performance and generate meta-improvements.

- Auto-generated by self-improvement-engine
- Source pattern: individual-edits
- Based on  severity violation
- Token impact per occurrence: 

### Maintenance:
- Review quarterly
- Update based on usage metrics
- Archive if unused for 90 days
