gotcha-summarizer（陷阱总结者）

Gotcha Summarizer

Automatically extracts and documents technical lessons learned from conversations into the project's docs/gotchas/ directory.

Features

• Structured Extraction: Extracts problems, causes, solutions, best practices from conversations
• 18+ Language Detection: Automatic code language detection (JSX/TSX, SQL, Vue, Bash, PowerShell, PHP, Ruby, Swift, Kotlin, C#, Dart, Rust, Go, Python, TypeScript, Java, JavaScript, C, C++)
• Multi-Code Block Support: Groups and displays code blocks by programming language
• Confidence Scoring: Returns classification confidence scores for domain and category
• Fuzzy Duplicate Detection: Detects similar entries using SequenceMatcher (threshold: 0.75)
• Internationalization: Chinese/English interface with LOCALE environment variable
• Error Tracking: Tracks JSON parse errors, file I/O errors, classification errors with statistics

Purpose

This skill analyzes conversation history to identify and document:

Frontend Development:

• Frontend bugs and root causes (hydration errors, memory leaks, rendering issues)
• Framework issues (React, Vue, Next.js, Nuxt, Svelte, Angular)
• Styling problems (CSS, SCSS, Tailwind, UnoCSS)
• Build tool issues (Vite, Webpack, Rollup, esbuild)
• State management (Redux, Pinia, Zustand, Jotai, Vuex)
• UI component library issues (Ant Design, Element Plus, shadcn/ui, Material-UI)

Backend Development:

• Backend bugs and root causes (nil pointer, race conditions, database errors)
• Database/ORM issues (SQL, migrations, Bun, GORM, Ent, sqlx)
• API issues (REST, GraphQL, gRPC, endpoints, controllers)
• Concurrency issues (goroutines, mutexes, channels, context, race conditions)
• Performance issues (caching, Redis, slow queries, indexing, n+1 problems)
• Precision issues (decimal vs float, money/amount handling)

Common Development:

• Testing problems and solutions (unit tests, integration tests, mocks, TDD)
• CI/CD pipeline issues (GitHub Actions, Docker, deployment, Kubernetes)
• Git/version control problems (merge conflicts, rebasing, branches)
• Code quality improvements (refactoring, design patterns, linting)
• Any technical lessons worth documenting

Usage

Run this skill at the end of a conversation to capture lessons learned:

skill gotcha-summarizer

The skill will:

1. Analyze the conversation for technical issues
2. Use a decision tree to categorize the topic
3. Extract key information (error messages, root causes, solutions)
4. Check existing docs for duplicates
5. Update the appropriate markdown file

Classification Priority

The three-layer decision tree checks categories in this priority order:

Layer 1: Domain (Common > Frontend > Backend)

• Common domains (Testing, CI/CD, Git) are checked first as they apply to all development

Layer 2: Category (within each domain)

• Bugs always have highest priority within each domain
• Other categories follow domain-specific priority

Frontend Priority: Bugs > Frameworks > State Mgmt > Styling > Build Tools > UI Components Backend Priority: Bugs > Database > API > Concurrency > Performance > Precision Common Priority: Testing > CI/CD > Git > Code Quality

Supported Categories

Script Usage

The main script can be run directly:

python3 scripts/summarize.py

Environment Variables

Examples

# Default: analyze latest conversation and update docs
python3 scripts/summarize.py

# Preview changes without writing
DRY_RUN=true python3 scripts/summarize.py

# Specify custom gotchas directory
GOTCHAS_DIR=/path/to/docs/gotchas python3 scripts/summarize.py

# Use specific conversation history
CLAUDE_HISTORY_PATH=/path/to/history.jsonl python3 scripts/summarize.py

# Use English locale
LOCALE=en python3 scripts/summarize.py

# Custom timestamp format (ISO 8601)
TIMESTAMP_FORMAT="%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%S%z" python3 scripts/summarize.py

# Enable debug logging and error tracking
LOG_LEVEL=DEBUG ENABLE_ERROR_TRACKING=true python3 scripts/summarize.py

Output Format

The skill generates markdown sections following this format:

Multiple Code Blocks

When multiple code blocks in different languages are detected, they are grouped:

### 相关代码

#### JAVASCRIPT

const App = () => <div />;

#### GO

func main() {}

Duplicate Detection

Before adding new content, the script:

1. Reads all existing gotcha files
2. Normalizes text (removes markdown formatting, timestamps, IDs)
3. Checks for similar titles (fuzzy matching with 0.75 threshold)
4. Checks for similar error messages
5. Checks for similar code patterns
6. Skips adding if a duplicate is detected (with warning)

Error Statistics

When ENABLE_ERROR_TRACKING=true, the script outputs detailed error statistics:

📊 Error Statistics: • Total entries processed: 150 • JSON parse errors: 3 • File read errors: 0 • File write errors: 1 • Classification errors: 0

This helps identify data quality issues in conversation history files.

Integration with Session End

This skill is designed to be called automatically at the end of conversations. You can set up a session-end hook in your Claude Code configuration to automatically run gotcha-summarizer when a conversation ends.

Troubleshooting

No technical issues found

If the skill doesn't detect any technical issues:

• Ensure the conversation contains error messages, code examples, or problem-solving discussions
• Try manually triggering the skill with explicit instructions about what to document

Duplicate entries

The skill attempts to detect duplicates, but may occasionally create similar entries. Review the generated content and merge or remove duplicates as needed.

File permission errors

Ensure the docs/gotchas/ directory is writable:

chmod +w docs/gotchas/*.md
