- Remember mistakes across sessions. Append one-liner learnings, review before complex tasks, promote important ones.
Skillagi
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 insteadKeep 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 rollbackWhen 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, orAGENTS.md - Claude Code: Promote to project
CLAUDE.mdor 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.
