learning-capture

This skill enables continual learning by recognizing valuable patterns during work and capturing them as new skills. It focuses on high-ROI captures: patterns that will save significant context window tokens through frequent reuse.

Novel Problem-Solving Approaches Trigger: Develop a creative, non-obvious solution to a complex problem that could apply to similar future problems.

Repeated Patterns Trigger: User requests similar tasks 2-3 times and a consistent approach emerges.

Recognize and capture reusable patterns, workflows, and domain knowledge from work sessions into new skills. Use when completing tasks that involve novel approaches repeated 2+ times, synthesizing complex domain knowledge across conversations, discovering effective reasoning patterns, or developing workflow optimizations. Optimizes for high context window ROI by identifying patterns that will save 500+ tokens per reuse across 10+ future uses. Source: exploration-labs/nates-substack-skills.
