The installer configures hooks, the hourly scheduler, and the managed section in CLAUDE.md.
✔ Hook shim installed (.auto-sop/hooks/)✔ Scheduler registered (launchd/systemd)✔ Managed section added to CLAUDE.md✔ Ready — captures will begin on next Claude Code session

Use Claude Code normally
Just keep working as usual. auto-sop captures tool calls silently in the background with less than 50ms overhead.
claude # start a session — captures happen automatically
Captures are stored locally in .auto-sop/captures/ — they never leave your machine on the free tier.

Trigger learning
The learner runs hourly by default. To trigger it immediately:
auto-sop learn-now
The learner analyzes your captures, finds recurring patterns (3+ occurrences), and validates them with LLM analysis.
✔ Analyzed 47 captures✔ Found 3 candidate patterns✔ Validated 2 directives via LLM✔ Wrote 2 new directives to CLAUDE.md
4
Check your CLAUDE.md
Open your project’s CLAUDE.md to see the new directives:
cat CLAUDE.md
Directives appear in the managed section with evidence counts:
- **[warning]** Always use the dedicated Read tool instead of 'cat' via Bash. Reserve Bash for operations that have no dedicated tool equivalent. [sop:sop-70ad] _(evidence: 3 sessions)_
Each directive includes an ID (sop:sop-xxxx) and evidence count so you can trace why it was created.
Connect your project for cloud sync and the web dashboard:
auto-sop install --license YOUR_LICENSE_KEY
All plans include cloud sync for stats and project tracking. The Free plan syncs 1 project; Pro syncs unlimited projects and adds directive sync. All cloud communication is encrypted client-side — the server never sees raw captures.
Every new account gets a 14-day Pro trial — no credit card required. During the trial you get unlimited projects, cloud directive sync, dashboard analytics, and all Pro features. After the trial ends you stay on the Free plan automatically.
