Skill AGI

Remember mistakes across sessions. Append one-liner learnings, review before complex tasks, promote important ones.

Log mistakes and insights so you don't repeat them across sessions.

When to Log

Add a learning when you:

• Fix a bug caused by a wrong assumption
• Discover a project-specific convention (package manager, config, naming)
• Get corrected by the user
• Find a workaround for a tool/platform limitation
• Waste time on an approach that doesn't work here

Format

Append one line to learnings.md (in this skill's directory):

- [YYYY-MM-DD] topic: what happened → what to do instead

Keep it to one line. If you need two sentences, you're over-explaining.

Examples

- [2026-02-21] pnpm not npm: Project uses pnpm workspaces → use `pnpm install`
- [2026-02-21] Docker M1: Base image has no ARM64 variant → add `--platform linux/amd64`
- [2026-02-21] test isolation: Shared DB state caused flaky tests → use transactions with rollback

When to Review

Before starting a complex task, read learnings.md and apply anything relevant. Don't review for trivial one-line changes.

When to Clean Up

Periodically (or when the file exceeds ~50 entries):

• Delete entries that no longer apply (dependency upgraded, config changed)
• Merge duplicates into a single entry
• Promote critical entries that affect every session to a permanent location

Promotion

Move persistent, high-impact learnings out of this file and into durable config:

• OpenClaw: Promote to workspace MEMORY.md, TOOLS.md, or AGENTS.md
• Claude Code: Promote to project CLAUDE.md or auto-memory (~/.claude/projects/*/memory/)

Once promoted, delete the entry from learnings.md to avoid duplication.

Rules

• No IDs, statuses, priorities, or tags. Just the one-liner.
• No hooks or scripts. This is a passive reference file.
• Append-only during a session. Clean up between sessions.
• If unsure whether something is worth logging, skip it. Only log what would save future time.
