Feedback Pattern Recognition Skill
Purpose
Search memory for patterns when receiving user corrections. Transforms individual feedback into systematic learning by identifying recurring issues.
When to Use
- •User corrects your behavior or recommendation
- •User expresses frustration with approach
- •User says "I've told you this before" or similar
- •Receiving direct criticism about methodology
- •Any teaching moment feedback
Protocol Reference
Full protocol: {{MEMORY_PATH}}/protocols/feedback_pattern_recognition.md
Quick Reference
Before responding to correction:
- •Record feedback VERBATIM in session notes (importance: high)
- •Search me.md for existing instructions on this topic
- •Search patterns/ and concepts/ for related documented patterns
- •Search people/ for similar past corrections
- •Classify: First-time vs recurring vs instruction violation
- •Acknowledge pattern explicitly if found
- •Integrate into me.md if recurring (2+ occurrences)
Red Flags
- •Same feedback exists in me.md -> You're not following your own instructions
- •Same correction 2+ times in session -> Systematic issue
- •Related to documented anti-pattern -> Doing what you know to avoid
See protocol for complete workflow and tool usage.
Key Principle: Don't just fix the immediate issue. Ask "Is this part of a pattern I should recognize?"
