# Reflecting

## Overview

**Reflecting IS converting experience into reusable knowledge.**

Analyze what worked, what failed, and encode learnings into the appropriate component (law, skill, rule, or documentation).

**Core principle:** Experience without reflection is wasted. Capture it before context is lost.

**Violating the letter of the rules is violating the spirit of the rules.**

## Task Initialization (MANDATORY)

Before ANY action, create task list using TaskCreate:

```
TaskCreate for EACH task below:
- Subject: "[reflecting] Task N: <action>"
- ActiveForm: "<doing action>"
```

**Tasks:**
1. Analyze conversation
2. Identify learnings
3. Classify each learning
4. Integrate into components
5. Verify integration
6. Generate summary

Announce: "Created 6 tasks. Starting execution..."

**Execution rules:**
1. `TaskUpdate status="in_progress"` BEFORE starting each task
2. `TaskUpdate status="completed"` ONLY after verification passes
3. If task fails → stay in_progress, diagnose, retry
4. NEVER skip to next task until current is completed
5. At end, `TaskList` to confirm all completed

## Task 1: Analyze Conversation

**Goal:** Review the conversation to identify significant events.

**Look for:**
- **Successes:** Patterns that led to good outcomes
- **Failures:** Errors, multiple attempts, dead ends
- **Discoveries:** New insights about the project/domain
- **Repetitions:** Actions performed multiple times

**Document each event:**
```
Event: [What happened]
Context: [When/where it occurred]
Outcome: [Success/failure/discovery]
```

**Verification:** Listed at least 3 significant events.

## Task 2: Identify Learnings

**Goal:** Extract actionable learnings from events.

**For each event, ask:**
- What would have prevented this failure?
- What made this succeed that could be repeated?
- What did we learn that applies beyond this task?

**Learning format:**
```yaml
Learning:
  context: [When this applies]
  insight: [What was learned]
  evidence: [Specific ev
