Instinct Learning

Overview

Instinct Learning records atomic learned behaviors as structured instinct records. Each instinct has a confidence score (0.3–0.9), a project scope, and a promotion pathway to global scope when confidence reaches 0.8.

This prevents knowledge from evaporating between sessions and stops cross-project contamination by isolating low-confidence instincts in the project that generated them.

When to Use

Invoke when:

• An agent observes a reliable pattern that should influence future behavior
• A debugging session surfaces a non-obvious fix that will recur
• A workflow succeeds repeatedly and should be encoded as a default
• An error pattern is identified that should be avoided project-wide
