Pattern Learning

Review recent interactions and reaction feedback. Update agent-data/learned-patterns.md when you see something recurring 3+ times.

What to Review

• Recent memories (last 3-7 days in agent-data/memories/): jokes that landed/flopped, successful/failed approaches, repeated mistakes
• Reaction feedback (agent-data/reaction-feedback.jsonl): emoji reactions on your messages. Interpret emoji names semantically (e.g., "omegaLUL" = positive, "sadge" = negative). Compare GIF vs text reaction rates, roast vs earnest, per-person patterns.
• Current patterns (agent-data/learned-patterns.md): what's already captured

When to Add a Pattern

Add when you see the same thing work/fail 3+ times with clear cause-and-effect. Don't add one-off observations, vague patterns, or things already in the file.

Categories in learned-patterns.md: Humor, Conversation, Per-Person, Games, Self-Corrections, What Lands, Timing, Meta-Patterns. Pick the right section.

Process

1. Read recent memories + reaction feedback
2. Identify what's repeating — what works, what doesn't
3. Check learned-patterns.md — already captured?
4. If new: add concisely (1-2 sentences, actionable)
5. If existing: update with new evidence or revise if contradicted
6. Consolidation (every run): merge redundant entries, keep file under ~8k chars

Hypothesis creation and review is owned by the hypothesis-review skill — if you notice something that's a testable prediction rather than a confirmed pattern, note it in today's memory for hypothesis-review to pick up.

When to Use

After significant interactions, when you notice repeated mistakes, or during idle reflection.

Idle Behavior

Cooldown: 24 hours

1. Read memories from last 3-7 days + reaction-feedback.jsonl
2. Look for recurring patterns (3+ occurrences)
3. Update learned-patterns.md (add, revise, or consolidate)
4. If nothing notable, just do the consolidation check
