SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Capture and organize actionable session learnings into a persistent memory record to guide future work and improve processes.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Structured learning capture: records what was learned, what worked, what could improve, and any new patterns.
  • Beads integration: optionally link related issues and follow-up tasks for traceability.
  • Schema-driven storage: stores session_date, session_duration, project_context, learnings, patterns, and supporting references for future reuse.

Quick Start

Capture a concise end-of-session summary to create a dated learning record you can review later.

Frequently Asked Questions about capture-learnings

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

FAQPage Schema
How do I capture and persist session learnings for future reference?▼

You capture session learnings by summarizing what was learned, what worked, and what could improve into a structured memory record. This creates a dated, schema-driven log with session metadata like duration and project context for future review.

What is the best way to document reflection patterns across multiple work sessions?▼

Documenting reflection patterns across sessions requires storing structured records of actionable learnings and observations. By enforcing a defined schema for session metadata and patterns, it builds a persistent memory that guides future work and process improvements.

Can I link Beads issue tracking to my captured session learnings?▼

Yes, you can link Beads issue tracking to session learnings. The capture process optionally accepts related issues and follow-up tasks, establishing traceability between your documented reflections and active issue tracking items.

How do I structure session metadata like project context and duration for documentation?▼

You structure session metadata using a defined schema that enforces fields like session_date, session_duration, project_context, learnings, what_worked, to_improve, and patterns. This schema-driven storage ensures consistent documentation for future reuse.

Do I need any dependencies to record what worked and what could improve in my sessions?▼

No dependencies are required to record what worked and what could improve in your sessions. The skill operates independently to capture actionable learnings and persist them into a structured memory record without external components.

Why capture actionable learnings into a structured memory record instead of plain text?▼

Capturing actionable learnings into a structured memory record rather than plain text ensures schema-driven storage of session metadata and patterns. This structured approach enables reliable retrieval and review of past sessions to guide future work and improve processes.
