SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Searches for, reads, and learns from past accomplishments, bug fixes, and problem statements saved in the .agents/workctx/ directory. Make sure to use this skill whenever you start working on a bug, when tackling an architectural pattern (like Auth or Database), when the user asks "how did we do this before?", or if you get stuck on an error that feels familiar—even if the user doesn't explicitly ask you to "learn from workctx"!

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Proactively locate relevant work-context documents in .agents/workctx/ that inform current tasks.
  • Read and extract architectural decisions, root-cause analyses, and known workarounds to prevent repeating past mistakes.
  • Use case: when debugging a tricky issue, consult prior notes to determine what worked previously and apply a validated pattern.

Quick Start

Summarize the most relevant past work-context note to inform the current debugging task.

Frequently Asked Questions about Learn Work Context

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I use past architectural decisions to inform my current debugging task?

To use past architectural decisions for current debugging, this skill reads and assimilates historical work-context notes from the .agents/workctx/ directory. It surfaces root-cause analyses and known workarounds to guide new implementation plans and prevent repeating past mistakes.

What is the best way to find root causes for familiar errors when working on an AI agent?

The best way to find root causes for familiar AI agent errors is to search the .agents/workctx/ directory. This skill proactively locates relevant work-context documents, extracting prior solutions and root-cause analyses to apply validated patterns to your current issue.

Can I automatically surface known workarounds from documentation when implementing architecture patterns?

Yes, you can automatically surface known workarounds when implementing architecture patterns. The skill reads historical notes saved in the .agents/workctx/ directory, extracting documented workarounds and past decisions to guide and validate your current pattern implementation.

How do I prevent repeating past software engineering mistakes when tackling a new bug fix?

To prevent repeating past software engineering mistakes during a new bug fix, this skill assimilates relevant past work-context notes from the .agents/workctx/ directory. It reads prior problem statements and solutions to ensure you apply previously validated workarounds.

When should I consult past work context notes instead of starting an architectural decision from scratch?

You should consult past work context notes whenever you start a bug, tackle an architectural pattern like Auth or Database, or if an error feels familiar. The skill locates historical decisions in the .agents/workctx/ directory to inform your current implementation plan.
