SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) and assets (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

Captures learnings, errors, and corrections to enable continuous improvement. This process helps you surface insights from failures, corrections, and evolving patterns to prevent repeating mistakes.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Log learnings to .learnings/LEARNINGS.md with categories such as correction, insight, knowledge_gap, and best_practice
  • Create and populate .learnings/ERRORS.md and .learnings/FEATURE_REQUESTS.md for error tracking and feature requests
  • Promote broadly applicable learnings to CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md, and/or Copilot guidance when relevant

Quick Start

Initialize the workspace for learning capture by creating a .learnings/ directory and initial log files if they are missing.

Frequently Asked Questions about self-improvement

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

FAQPage Schema
How do I log errors and corrections to improve my development workflow?

Capture learnings, errors, and corrections by writing entries into centralized log files within a `.learnings/` directory, categorizing them as correction, insight, knowledge_gap, or best_practice to prevent repeating mistakes.

What is the best way to track recurring errors and knowledge gaps in a project?

Track recurring errors and knowledge gaps by creating `.learnings/ERRORS.md` and `.learnings/LEARNINGS.md` files. This approach surfaces insights from failures and evolving patterns to prevent repeating mistakes and enable continuous improvement.

Can I promote captured learnings into my existing agent guidance files?

Yes, broadly applicable learnings captured in the log can be promoted directly into `CLAUDE.md`, `AGENTS.md`, and Copilot guidance files, integrating corrections and best practices into your AI agent's operational context.

How do I initialize a continuous improvement log for my workspace?

Initialize a continuous improvement log by creating a `.learnings/` directory and adding initial log files like `LEARNINGS.md`, `ERRORS.md`, and `FEATURE_REQUESTS.md` if they are missing from your workspace.

What categories should I use when logging corrections and best practices?

Use categories such as correction, insight, knowledge_gap, and best_practice when logging entries. These categories structure the centralized log to effectively track failures, corrections, and missing capabilities.
