What problem does it solve?
Load when capturing a new architectural decision (ADR), documenting a discovered pattern or
anti-pattern after solving a complex problem, applying the three-time-rule (promote to
standard after solving the same problem 3 times), tracking an instinct with a confidence
score, promoting a recurring instinct to an explicit standard, or at the end of a session
to preserve reusable solutions. Triggers on: "document this", "remember this pattern",
"write an ADR", "add to our standards", "this keeps coming up", "track this instinct",
"I have a feeling about this approach".
Core Features & Use Cases
- Instinct lifecycle with confidence scoring and the ability to promote instincts to explicit patterns or standards.
- Three-time rule for pattern promotion, ensuring repeated success before generalizing.
- ADR templates and end-of-session review protocol to preserve reusable solutions and drive governance.
Quick Start
Document a new ADR or pattern by creating or updating SKILL.md with the instinct, evidence log, and promotion status.
