description: Distill durable lessons from the latest conversation into reusable local skills.

When a user message starts with the exact literal `203 /learn`, stop
normal task flow and focus only on the latest conversation or task
context. Extract the durable lesson rather than transient chat details.
Inspect `ai/skills/*/SKILL.md` for a clearly matching skill before
deciding where the lesson belongs.

Treat `203 /learn` as a prefix trigger, so `203 /learn summarize the
latest lesson` activates this workflow. Do not activate this workflow for
bare `/learn`, quoted or explanatory mentions of `203 /learn`, code
blocks, or when `203 /learn` appears mid-sentence instead of at the start
of the message.

Before writing anything, propose:
- a short lesson title
- the target `ai/skills/<skill-name>/` folder
- whether to create a new skill or update an existing one
- a concise summary of the lesson

Wait for explicit developer confirmation before editing files or running
`scix sync`.

After confirmation:
- create or update `ai/skills/<skill-name>/SKILL.md`
- use lowercase hyphen-case for new skill folder names
- include valid YAML frontmatter with concise `name` and `description`
- write a reusable skill, not a raw conversation note
- capture when to use the lesson, the distilled workflow or rule, and any
  concrete guardrails
- only reuse an existing skill when the topic is clearly the same;
  otherwise create a new folder

After the canonical `ai/skills` edit, run `scix sync` so generated skill
mirrors and packaged template files stay aligned. If `scix sync` fails,
report the failure clearly and leave the confirmed canonical skill edit in
place for manual follow-up.
