name: 73-lessons-learn-150 description: "[73] LESSONS. Record and maintain Lessons in MEMORY.md after a problem is solved or the user confirms success. Use when capturing a new lesson, moving lessons through the pipeline, or enhancing Project Architecture Quick Reference with new insights."
Close-Lessons-Learn 150 Protocol
Goal
Capture durable learning from a solved problem and keep the Memory pipeline consistent.
When to use
Use this skill when:
- The user confirms a fix worked (e.g., "works", "fixed", "отлично").
- A non‑obvious bug or root cause was discovered.
- A recurring pattern should be turned into a protocol.
- New architectural insights emerge that should be documented in Project Architecture Quick Reference.
What are "Principles" (from AGENTS.md and MEMORY.md)
- Principle Scan (AGENTS.md): After every message, the agent analyzes whether the task/solution revealed a fundamental truth, protocol, or anti-pattern that is a general rule (not a one-off). If yes, it records a "Principles Detected" block (e.g.
## 🧠 Principles Detectedwith**[Name]**: [definition]). - Principles in MEMORY.md: The section
## 🧠 Principles (Context Engineering)holds the curated map (Architecture Map, Coding Conventions, Domain Axioms, Anti-Patterns). Each Lesson has a Principle: field = one-sentence rule. When closing lessons, any Principles Detected during the session must also be persisted there.
Workflow
- Read the active session log in
.sessions/SESSION_[date]-[name].mdfor evidence, context, and any Principles Detected blocks (or "Followed Principles") from agent responses. - Open
MEMORY.md(repo root). - Record Principles Detected: For each principle that was detected during the session (from session log or from the work just done):
- If it is already captured as the Principle: of a new lesson below, do not duplicate.
- If it is a standalone general rule (convention, axiom, or anti-pattern), add it to
## 🧠 Principlesin the appropriate subsection (e.g. Coding Conventions, Domain Axioms, Anti-Patterns) as a new bullet:* **[Name]:** [Concise definition].
- Append a new Lesson to
## 🆕 Lessons (Inbox)using this template:
### <YYYY-MM-DD> <Short title>
**Problem:** <what was broken>
**Attempts:** <what was tried, if any>
**Solution:** <what fixed it>
**Why it worked:** <causal explanation>
**Principle:** <one-sentence rule for the future>
If 3+ related lessons exist, create a Short‑Term entry:
- Move the related lessons (or summarize them) into
## 🔄 Short-Term Memory. - Write a common pattern and an emerging principle.
- Move the related lessons (or summarize them) into
If a principle is stable, promote it to
## 💎 Long-Term Memoryas a protocol:- Format: Context → Protocol → Reasoning.
Review Project Architecture Quick Reference and enhance if needed:
- Check if the lesson reveals new architectural insights (new directories, patterns, workflows)
- Add missing directories, workspaces, or key patterns discovered during work
- Update existing entries with new information or clarifications
- Keep the reference current and comprehensive
Output expectations
- Report exactly what you recorded or moved.
- Report how many Principles Detected were recorded and where (Inbox lesson Principle: field vs.
## 🧠 Principlessection). - If you did not write a lesson, say why.
- If you updated the Project Architecture Quick Reference, specify what was added or modified.
