Learn: Session Knowledge Extraction
Extract reusable workflows, workarounds, and multi-step procedures discovered during a session into persistent skills. Complementary to the learn-tags rule — while [LEARN] tags record one-liner corrections in MEMORY.md, /skill-extract creates full skill definitions in skills/.
When to Use
- You discovered a non-obvious multi-step procedure
- You built a workaround for a recurring problem
- You developed a workflow that future sessions would benefit from
- the user says "save this as a skill", "learn this", or "remember how to do this"
Phase 1: Evaluate
Before creating anything, answer these 4 self-assessment questions:
- Non-obvious? Would a future session figure this out without help, or would it waste time rediscovering it?
- Future benefit? Will this come up again across sessions or projects?
- Repeatable? Is this a procedure that can be followed step-by-step, or was it a one-off?
- Multi-step? Does it involve 2+ non-trivial steps that benefit from being documented together?
