🎛️ Core Workflow

This extension skill grants AI assistants cross-session continuous learning capabilities. All experience extracted from conversations is structurally recorded:

🐞 Error Log Recording: Automatically captures unexpected command failures, tool errors, and API faults into .learnings/ERRORS.md to prevent stepping on the same mines twice.
🎯 Correction Capture: When you provide feedback like "No, it should be..." or "Actually it's...", the AI immediately tags that correction with correction and permanently internalizes it.
💡 Requirements & Ideas Tracking: Records missing features or future ideas to .learnings/FEATURE_REQUESTS.md for batch resolution later.
🔍 Knowledge Gap Detection: Proactively identifies and records its own outdated or inaccurate understanding of the current project, tagging them as knowledge_gap.
✨ Best Practice Extraction: When a better solution is found for a recurring code pattern, it's recorded as best_practice into global awareness.

🧭 Typical Use Cases

🧱 Scenario 1: Team Convention Alignment

When AI gets project-specific lint rules or unique architectural styles wrong the first time, one correction is all it takes — it permanently remembers the convention, and all subsequent code automatically avoids the minefield.

💣 Scenario 2: Error Log Mine Clearing

Special environment variable configurations or version locks for specific dependency installation errors — solve once, immune forever. No more wasted time on the same configuration errors.

📥 Scenario 3: Async Feature Pool

Divergent ideas that pop up mid-development get quickly noted into the feature pool by AI, avoiding disruption to your current flow — evaluate and implement them in batch later.

🔄 Scenario 4: Dynamic Context Building

For massive refactoring projects, AI can automatically maintain a continuously updated core understanding document (like CLAUDE.md or AGENTS.md), ensuring each day-start builds upon yesterday's accumulated wisdom.

🛡️ Runtime Prerequisites

📑 OpenClaw Base Authorization: Requires the system and assistant to have cross-session persistent file IO permissions and corresponding instruction reservations enabled.
📂 Persistent Storage Module: Confirm that the current workspace allows AI to read/write/create within the .learnings/ directory structure at the workspace root.
