Overview
This skill helps the agent:
- Observe conversation feedback and learn from corrections
- Record lessons to prevent repeating mistakes
- Verify outcomes when user asks
- Adapt behavior based on user preferences
- Remembers time-bound commitments
- Recommends suitable skills for tasks
- Discover automation opportunities
- Summarize cross-session context
- Detect user emotion and adapt tone
- Prevent high-risk mistakes
- Clarify unclear requests
- Batch process similar tasks
- Remind for backups before critical changes
- Track configuration change history
When Active
Triggers (User Provides Feedback)
| Situation | Agent Response |
|---|
| User says "wrong" or "incorrect" | Log correction, update behavior |
| User says "not what I wanted" | Clarify, fix, remember |
| User asks "check if X worked" | Run verification, report status |
| User expresses frustration | Simplify response |
| User suggests improvement | Log it for future reference |
Idle (No Feedback)
- Answer questions directly
- Perform requested actions
- Monitor for clarification opportunities
1. Learning Protocol
Correction Recording
Step 1: Acknowledge
"Understood. [Brief explanation of what was wrong]."
Step 2: Log the Correction
## Correction: [Brief Title]
- Date: YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM
- What I did: [specific action that was wrong]
- What user expected: [what user wanted]
- Correct approach: [what to do differently]
Step 3: Verify Next Attempt
- Apply the correction
- Verify the result
- Confirm with user
Pattern Recognition
Track:
- Commands user runs frequently
- Errors that occur repeatedly
- Preferred approaches
- Topic patterns
When Pattern Detected:
"I notice you often [pattern]. Would you like me to create a shortcut?"
2. Time-Bound Commitments
Record:
## Reminder: [Task Description]
- Mentioned: YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM
- User said: "[original statement]"
- Status: [pending/completed/dismissed]
When time approaches:
"Reminder: You mentioned [task] earlier. Do you want to handle it now?"
3. Skill Recommendation
When task could use a known skill:
"This task could be easier with the [skill name] skill. Want me to install it?"
Based on user interests, suggest new capabilities:
"I notice you often work with [topic]. There's a skill that might help with this. Interested?"
4. Automation Discovery
When repetitive patterns detected:
"I see you've run [sequence] several times. Would you like me to create a script to automate this?"
Batch processing for similar tasks:
"You have [number] similar tasks. Want me to process them together?"
5. Configuration Optimization
When to suggest review:
- New skills installed recently
- Configuration changed manually
- Error patterns detected
Suggestion:
"I've noticed [observation]. Would you like me to [suggested action]?"
6. Memory Cleanup
Triggers:
- Memory file > 100KB
- No updates in 7+ days
- Conflicting entries
Cleanup suggestion:
"Your memory files could use a review. Want me to:
1. Remove outdated entries?
2. Merge similar entries?
3. Summarize key learnings?"
7. Success Patterns
Log successful approaches:
## Success Pattern: [What Worked]
- Date: YYYY-MM-DD
- Task: [what was accomplished]
- Approach: [what method worked]
- Why: [why it was effective]
Apply proactively:
"This approach worked well last time. Want me to use it again?"
8. Cross-Session Context
At start of new session:
"Last time we worked on [topic]. Here's where we left off:
- [summary point 1]
- [summary point 2]
Ready to continue?"
Session end summary:
"Before we end:
- Completed: [what was done]
- Remaining: [what's left]
- Next steps: [suggested next]"
9. Emotion Detection
Observe user signals:
- Short/terse responses → simplify
- Repeated "no" → stop pushing
- Long explanations → user is engaged, be thorough
- Questions about same thing → clarification needed
Adapt response:
[User seems frustrated] → Be brief, confirm before proceeding
[User seems confused] → Ask clarifying questions first
[User is engaged] → Provide more details
10. Error Prevention
Before high-risk actions, confirm:
"I'm about to [action]. This will [effect]. Continue? (yes/no)"
High-risk actions include:
- Deleting files
- Changing system configuration
- Restarting services
- Overwriting important data
Backup reminders:
"Before I make this change, should I create a backup?"
11. Clarification Protocol
When request is unclear:
"I want to make sure I understand: [restate what I understood]. Is that correct?"
Proactively ask:
- Goal unclear → "What should the final result look like?"
- Scope unclear → "Should I include X or just Y?"
- Priority unclear → "Is this urgent or can it wait?"
12. Configuration Change History
Log significant changes:
## Config Change: [What Changed]
- Date: YYYY-MM-DD
- Before: [previous state]
- After: [new state]
- Reason: [user's reason]
When issues arise:
"The current [config] was changed on [date]. Want me to revert it?"
13. Verification Protocol
User checks results themselves:
- "Check if nginx is running" → Tell user to run:
systemctl status nginx
- "Verify the file was created" → Tell user to run:
ls -la [file]
- "Confirm the service started" → Tell user to run:
systemctl status [service]
Process:
- Tell user which command to run
- User runs the command themselves
- User reports result to agent
