Capture Learning

Capture Learning

Write team learnings to pending/ — drafts awaiting human review.

Ask first (required)

After non-trivial tasks, the agent must ask:

> „Soll ich ein Team-Learning in shared-agents anlegen?"

Only write if the user says yes. Never silently write to pending.

When content is worth capturing

Propose when all apply:

• Insight is reusable beyond this session
• Would help a teammate or future agent
• No secrets or customer-specific data

Skip when trivial, already documented, or user said no.

Where to write (pending only)

Canonical path only — see [docs/canonical-paths.md](../../docs/canonical-paths.md).

# Resolve before write (never use workspace-relative paths):
sa pending path YYYY-MM-DD-short-slug
# Or: "$SHARED_AGENTS_HOME/scripts/learning-path.sh" YYYY-MM-DD-short-slug

Mandatory

1. Write only under the path from sa pending path (typically $SHARED_AGENTS_HOME/team/learnings/pending/).
2. Use the absolute path in the Write/edit tool — not paths from the open project or Core dev checkout.
3. Do not commit learnings into the public Core-Repo.

Forbidden

• Development/Work/shared-agents/learnings/ (Core has no learnings)
• Customer project repos (.cursor/, project docs/, etc.)
• approved/ (human/PR only)

Never write to approved/ — that is human/PR territory.

File format

domain: [tag1, tag2]
tags: [keyword1, keyword2]

## Kontext
What problem or situation triggered this.

## Erkenntnis
The reusable insight in 1–3 sentences.

## Anwendung
Concrete steps or rule of thumb for next time.

## Links
- path/to/file or PR URL (optional)

Versions (required when a stack applies)

Always set versions: for framework/runtime-specific learnings. Use [] only when no stack version is relevant (e.g. pure process/infra docs).

Format: list of name:version pairs (compatible with flat frontmatter parsing):

versions: [shopware:6.6.10, php:8.3.14]
versions: [laravel:11.31.0, php:8.3.14]
versions: [vue:3.4.27, node:20.18.1]
versions: []   # no stack — OK for shared-agents workflow, MCP setup, etc.

Version format (mandatory for stack entries):

• Full patch level — 6.6.10, not 6.6.x or 6.6
• Minimum MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH (three numeric segments), e.g. 11.31.0, 3.4.27
• Fourth segment only when the product publishes it (e.g. Shopware 6.6.10.0); trailing .0 may be dropped → 6.6.10
• No wildcards (x, *) — always the version the insight was verified against

Common keys: shopware, laravel, symfony, vue, nuxt, react, nextjs, php, node, wordpress, typo3, magento.

How to determine: read from the project (composer.json, composer.lock, package.json, Shopware Admin/CLI bin/console --version). Use the exact version from the environment where the learning was validated.

After writing — mandatory publish

After creating the file, always push pending for team review:

"$SHARED_AGENTS_HOME/scripts/publish-pending-learning.sh" YYYY-MM-DD-short-slug.md

Or: sa pending push

This commits + pushes only the team repo (team/learnings/pending/) — teammates run sa sync and sa review.

After writing — tell the user

1. File is in pending/ — not team knowledge for agents yet (not in approved/).
2. After publish: teammates can sa sync → sa review.
3. Only approved/ after review becomes team truth.

pending vs approved

| | pending/ | approved/ | |---|----------|-----------| | Who writes | Agent (after user says yes) | Human via sa review | | Git | Auto commit+push via sa pending push | Auto commit+push via sa review | | Used by agents | No | Yes | | Purpose | Draft for team review | Team truth |
