SPP is a Claude Code plugin that helps you learn how code, or to keep your skills sharp. It is useful for learning new languages, ramping up on code bases, or learning CS and engineering concepts. Why? Over-reliance on AI coding tools leads to skill atrophy. A study from Anthropic found that: AI use impairs conceptual understanding, code reading, and debugging abilities... Participants who fully delegated coding tasks showed some productivity improvements, but at the cost of learning. SPP lets you use AI as a collaborator rather than a crutch. It works two ways: 1. Drive mode — Toggle spp drive to write code yourself while Claude coaches. In drive mode, Claude can't write code. 2. Coaching skill - While in drive mode, SPP writes every file save and conversation exchange to a transcript file. When you're done, run /coach to get coaching and feedback on your session. 3. Human coding goal — Set a goal for how much code you want to write per week. When you are under the goal, SPP blocks Claude from writing more until you catch up. Claude can stil give guidance, code pointers, and reviews your work. Quick Start How It Works Tracking SPP reads your commit history. Commits with Co-Authored-By: Claude in the message count as Claude commits; commits without it count as human commits. - Tracking starts from when you run spp init (previous commits are ignored) - By default, looks at the last 7 days of commits - Can","default_branch":null,"files":null,"tree":[],"storefront":"/r/mlolson","claimed":false,"request_supported":{"post":"https://gitbuyer.com/r/mlolson/claude-spp/request-supported","requests":0},"note":"indexed from public GitHub; nothing is for sale on this page.
