## Conversation
### User
can you find a skill or slash command which tells you or claude to go over my past conversation and finding things happen a lot and might be solved by a permant skillm, or claude.md etc.
### Assistant
I’m checking the available skills for one that explicitly turns repeated conversation patterns into durable system changes, then I’ll point you to the closest slash-command-style workflow if there is one.
### Assistant
I found the closest built-in mechanism. I’m checking whether there’s also a dedicated Claude slash command, or whether this is skill-only right now.
### Assistant
There is also a stronger match for the “happens a lot across past conversations” part. I’m reading that command now, since `evolve` is session-local and may not be the best fit for pattern-finding across history.
### User
it's not evolve. thats clearly not what idescribed
### Assistant
`/friction-analysis` is the one you described.
It’s a Claude command at [evolve.md](/Users/nickyoung/.claude/commands/friction-analysis.md), and its purpose is to scan recent sessions for repeated friction, classify the root cause, and suggest the right permanent fix layer:
`CLAUDE.md`, knowledge, commands, skills, hooks, scripts, or architecture.
The key distinction is:
- `/evolve` = capture a lesson from the current session
- `/friction-analysis` = look across past conversations for recurring patterns and propose system fixes
You’d use it like:
```text
/friction-analysis 7
```
That means “analyze the last 7 days.” If you want, I can also find whether there’s a Codex-native equivalent yet, or make one.
