Example Skill

Skill that auto-triggers based on context.

When This Skill Triggers

This skill demonstrates the difference between skills and commands:

• Commands (/command-name): User explicitly invokes
• Skills: Auto-trigger based on context, no explicit user action needed

This example skill triggers when:

• User says "I learned that..."
• User says "I discovered that..."
• User shares a lesson or pattern
• Context suggests something worth remembering

What This Skill Does

1. Recognizes the learning/discovery moment
2. Extracts the key insight
3. Suggests storing it for future reference
4. Offers to save to persistent memory

Implementation

When triggered, execute:

1. Acknowledge: "I noticed you learned something useful. Want me to remember that?"
2. Extract: Identify the core learning
3. Suggest storage: Propose where to save it (general knowledge, domain-specific, tool trick, etc.)
4. Confirm: Wait for user approval or act if obvious

Example flow:

User says: "I just realized React components re-render when inline object props change"

Skill executes:

• Recognizes learning moment
• Suggests: "Should I save this to domain/react.md?"
• If yes: Stores entry with date and reasoning
• Confirms: "Saved to domain/react.md for future reference"

Notes

• Skills are async—they don't block user workflows
• Use context to determine relevance (don't trigger on everything)
• Confirm destructive or long-running operations
• Keep skill focused on one purpose
