Skill Distiller

Turn successful workflows into reusable skills — automatically.

Inspired by Hermes Agent's learning loop, but with quality gates to prevent skill bloat.

When to Distill

Not every task deserves a skill. Evaluate these three criteria:

All three must be YES to proceed:

1. Novel? — Did this task require a workflow you haven't done before? (If you already have a skill for this, update it instead of creating a new one)
2. Successful? — Did the task complete with verified results? (Failed tasks produce lessons, not skills — write to memory/lessons-learned.md instead)
3. Reusable? — Will this exact workflow likely be needed again? (One-off tasks don't need skills)
