Individual skill
growth-log
Write growth log entries that extract reusable patterns from completed work — root cause, transferable rule, and a recognizable signal — instead of diary-style event narration, with a 4-8 sentence template and merge-duplicates discipline. Use when capturing what was learned after a complex task, debugging session, failure, or rollback, when reviewing progress over a period, or when a delivery gate asks what was learned.

# Growth Log Skill
> **The problem:** Most people write "fixed a bug in X" as a learning log. That's a diary entry, not a learning artifact. A real growth log extracts the *pattern* so you recognize it next time.
>
> **This skill teaches:** How to write learning entries that compound across sessions. Works with any note-taking system — Markdown files, Notion, Obsidian, plain text. Templates are generic; adapt to your setup.
## When to Activate
- After completing a complex task (multi-file, new feature, architecture change)
- After a failure, mistake, or "that was harder than expected" moment
- When you want to review what you've learned over a period
**When NOT to activate:** Trivial changes (typo fixes, single-line tweaks, config value changes with no debugging). The threshold: *did this task involve debugging, redoing, rollback, or a non-obvious decision?* If yes → write an entry. If no → skip.
