Knowledge Gap Review

Run this after completing a task to identify issues in information retrieval and propose candidates for improving skills/rules.

Purpose

A skill for AI-assisted development that helps verbalize project-specific tacit knowledge and continuously improve the knowledge base.

When to Use

• During self-review after completing a task
• When you felt unsure during implementation
• When you had to repeatedly refer to existing code

Review Process

Step 1: Reflection Perspectives

Review the most recent task from the following perspectives:

1. Items that took time to research

   • Information that required three or more tool calls to find
   • Implicit patterns understood by referencing multiple parts of existing code
   • Areas where you had to proceed by guessing because documentation was not found

2. Items where decisions were difficult

   • Cases with multiple possible implementation approaches
   • Situations where you checked existing patterns for error codes or naming conventions
   • Parts where you were not confident whether your choice was correct

3. Information missing from existing skills/rules

   • Cases where you referenced a skill but the required information was missing
   • Mistakes or rework that could have been avoided if a rule had existed

Step 2: Classify the Issues

Classify the identified issues based on the following criteria:

Difficulty	Criteria
High	Took more than 10 minutes / required multiple files
Medium	Took 5–10 minutes / referenced 1–2 existing files
Low	Less than 5 minutes / easy to find but worth recording

Step 3: Propose Where to Maintain Them

Propose the appropriate destination based on the nature of each issue:

Destination	Suitable Cases
.claude/skills/	Knowledge referenced during specific tasks (invoked by command)
.claude/rules/	Rules that should always be applied (auto-loaded)
CLAUDE.md	Project-wide principles and architecture
Update existing file	Can be handled by extending an existing skill/rule

Output Format

Output the results using the following format:

### Next Steps

- [ ] Create a GitHub issue (label: `ai-knowledge-gap`)
- [ ] Create or update skill/rule files
