How does Learning Capture trigger?

The skill triggers automatically when it detects phrases like 'it's fixed', 'problem solved', or 'that worked', as well as when you provide direct corrections like 'use X instead of Y'.

Does it automatically modify my main documentation?

No, it uses a two-phase approach. This skill only captures and stages insights. You can use the /learn-promote command later to move them to permanent documentation or skills.

Where are the captured learnings stored?

Insights are saved to the '# Staged Learnings' section of CLAUDE.local.md, which is a gitignored file designed for local environment persistence.

Can I explicitly tell it to remember something?

Absolutely. You can use the /learn command or phrases like 'save this' or 'remember this' to manually trigger the capture process.

Does it handle duplicate entries?

Yes, the skill searches CLAUDE.local.md for similar content before saving to ensure your learning log remains concise and free of redundant information.
