Individual skill
skillopt-sleep
Use when the user wants the dsh agent to self-improve from past usage, asks about a nightly/offline 'sleep' or 'dream' cycle, skill/memory consolidation, or says things like 'make my agent better the more I use it', 'review my past sessions', 'learn my preferences', 'consolidate what you learned', 'run the sleep cycle', or wants to schedule background self-optimization. Drives the skillopt_sleep engine through the skillopt_* tools: harvest past sessions -> mine recurring tasks -> replay via a selected backend -> consolidate validated skills behind a held-out gate.

# SkillOpt-Sleep: usage-driven self-evolution for the dsh agent
SkillOpt-Sleep is Microsoft's [SkillOpt](https://github.com/microsoft/SkillOpt)
deployment-time companion engine: it reviews your past sessions (harvest), mines
recurring tasks (mine), replays them through a selected backend (replay), and
consolidates what it learns into skill documents behind a **held-out validation
gate** (consolidate).
This skill drives the engine through the 7 `skillopt_*` tools exposed by the
dsh-skillopt plugin. The default `mock` backend makes no model calls, which is
useful for verifying the plumbing; a real backend consumes your API budget.
