Skill Distillation

Step 5 of the universal request loop (see AGENTS.md and meta-skills). Every user request ends with a distillation pass before delivery. Skip it and the library decays; the next session rediscovers the same lessons.

ORIENT -> PLAN -> EXECUTE -> VALIDATE -> DISTILL -> DELIVER

When to run

Run automatically when any of these happen:

1. A task required > 3 iterations.
2. The user corrected you ("that's wrong", "you missed X", "it should be Y").
3. You discovered a workaround not in any existing skill.
4. A sub-agent hit a failure not covered by an existing skill.
5. You solved something that would break again next session without docs.

Also run during heartbeats (every 2-3 days): review recent memory/ files for undistilled lessons.
