What problem does it solve?
During software development work, you frequently generate valuable technical insights including bug fixes, new coding patterns, architectural decisions, and API quirks. These insights are often forgotten or left unrecorded, leading to repeated mistakes and lost institutional knowledge that could benefit future work.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Automated Insight Detection: Scans recent git changes, commit history, and existing project memory to identify unrecorded insights like debugging solutions, new patterns, architectural choices, API gotchas, and confirmed user preferences.
- Duplicate & Conflict Checking: Compares detected insights against existing memory files to avoid redundant entries and flags contradictions with previously recorded knowledge for your review.
- Cross-Project Knowledge Sharing: Saves approved insights to both project-specific and global memory stores, so lessons learned in one project can be reused across all your work.
Use Case: After spending an hour debugging a Supabase trigger search_path issue, the skill will detect this unrecorded insight and offer to save it, so you never have to troubleshoot the same problem again.
