# System Optimization Workflow
This document describes the self-improvement workflow using the **reflect skill** and **optimize agent**.
## Overview
OpenCode includes a two-stage system for continuous improvement:
1. **Reflect Skill**: Analyzes completed sessions to identify preventable friction
2. **Optimize Agent**: Takes direct action to implement improvements automatically
This workflow transforms passive observations into active system improvements, preventing future wasted work.
## Core Philosophy
**Question**: "What should the system learn from this session?"
Focus on **preventable friction** (within our control) vs **expected work**:
- ✅ SSH keys not loaded → Preventable
- ✅ Commands repeated 3+ times → Preventable
- ✅ Missing documentation → Preventable
- ❌ Tests took time to debug → Expected work
- ❌ CI/CD pipeline wait time → System constraint
## When to Use
Run optimization after work sessions when:
- Multiple authentication or permission errors occurred
- Commands were repeated multiple times
- Environment/setup issues caused delays
- Documentation was missing or unclear
- New patterns emerged that should be captured
## Two-Stage Workflow
### Stage 1: Analysis (Reflect Skill)
**Load the reflect skill**:
```
learn_skill(reflect)
```
**What it does**:
- Reviews conversation history for preventable friction
- Analyzes todo list for unexpected issues
- Identifies 1-3 high-impact improvements (quality over quantity)
- Maps issues to system components (docs, skills, configs)
- Provides structured findings for optimize agent
**Output format**:
```markdown
# Session Reflection
## Preventable Issues
### Issue 1: [Description]
**Impact**: [Time lost / productivity hit]
**Root Cause**: [Why it happened]
**Target Component**: [CLAUDE.md | AGENTS.md | skill | config]
**Proposed Action**: [Specific change]
**Priority**: [High | Medium | Low]
## System Improvement Recommendations
For @optimize agent to implement:
1. Documentation Updates: ...
2. Skill Changes: ...
3. Automation Opportunities: ...
---
**Next Step**: Run `@optimize` to implement these improvements.
```
### Stage 2: Implementation (Optimize Agent)
**Invoke the optimize agent**:
```
@optimize
```
Or provide specific context:
```
@optimize <paste reflection findings>
```
**What it does**:
- Takes reflection findings and implements changes directly
- Updates CLAUDE.md with project-specific commands
- Updates AGENTS.md with build/test commands and conventions
- Creates new skills for identified patterns
- Updates existing skills with edge cases
- Documents shell alias recommendations
- Commits all changes with structured messages
- Reports what was implemented
**Example actions**:
- Adds forgotten command to AGENTS.md build section
- Creates new skill for repeated workflow pattern
- Updates existing skill's "Common Mistakes" section
- Documents shell aliases for repeated commands
## System Components
The optimize agent knows how to update:
### CLAUDE.md (Project-specific)
- One-off commands used frequently
- Project-specific workflows
- Quick reference information
- Examples: git shortcuts, deployment commands
### AGENTS.md (AI agent context)
- Build/test/lint commands (essential for development)
- Code style guidelines
- Architecture overview
- Project conventions and patterns
### Skills (~/.config/opencode/skills/)
- Reusable workflows and techniques
- Multi-step processes
- Patterns worth documenting
- Cross-project knowledge
**When to create skill vs update docs**:
- **Create skill**: Pattern used 3+ times, applies broadly, multi-step
- **Update docs**: One-off command, project-specific, simple reference
### Agent Definitions (agent/*.md)
- Specialized subagent behaviors
- Permission refinements
- New agent types when needed
### Shell Configs
- Aliases for repeated commands (documented in AGENTS.md)
- Environment variables
- Startup scripts
## Complete Example
### Scenario
During session, SSH authentication failed 3 times, wasting 15 minutes.
### Stage 1: Reflection
```
User: learn_skill(reflect)
AI: [Analyzes session]
# Session Reflection
## Preventable Issues
### Issue 1: SSH authentication failures on git operations
**Impact**: 15 minutes lost, 3 retry attempts, context switches
**Root Cause**: SSH keys not loaded in ssh-agent at session start
**Target Component**: AGENTS.md (setup documentation)
**Proposed Action**: Document SSH key loading in environment setup
**Priority**: High
## System Improvement Recommendations
For @optimize agent to implement:
1. **Documentation Updates**:
- Add SSH key loading instructions to AGENTS.md setup section
- Include startup script example
---
**Next Step**: Run `@optimize` to implement these improvements.
```
### Stage 2: Implementation
```
User: @optimize
AI: [Reads AGENTS.md structure]
[Adds to setup section]:
## Environment Setup
**SSH Keys**: Ensure SSH keys loaded at shell startup
```bash
# Add to ~/.zshrc or ~/.bashrc
ssh-add ~/.ssh/id_ed25519 2>/dev/null
```
[Commits changes]
git add AGENTS.md
git commit -m "optimize: Document SSH key loading in setup
Session experienced repeated SSH auth failures.
Added startup script to prevent future occurrences.
Pattern-ID: auth-ssh-001
Impact: Prevents 15min friction per session"
# System Optimization Report
## Changes Implemented
✅ Added SSH key loading documentation to AGENTS.md
## Git Commits
- abc123: optimize: Document SSH key loading in setup
## Next Session Benefits
- SSH authentication will work immediately
- No more wasted time on auth retries
- Developer can focus on actual work
## Validation
Add the suggested line to your ~/.zshrc:
ssh-add ~/.ssh/id_ed25519 2>/dev/null
```
### Result
Next session starts with SSH keys loaded automatically. Problem prevented.
## Integration with do-job Workflow
The do-job skill now includes optimization as Step 12:
```markdown
## Step 12: Session Reflection and Optimization
**Stage 1: Analysis** - Use `learn_skill(reflect)`
**Stage 2: Implementation** - Invoke `@optimize` agent
Only proceed after:
- PR is created and validated
- PR review subagent gives go ahead
```
## Benefits
**Compound improvements**: Each session makes the next one better
- Commands documented → Faster execution next time
- Skills created → Reusable across projects
- Patterns captured → Less repeated explanation
- Automation added → Less manual work
**Zero manual knowledge capture**: System improves itself automatically
- No need to remember to update docs
- No manual skill creation
- No searching for what commands to add
**Future-ready**: Prepares for memory/WIP tool integration
- Structured commit messages enable pattern detection
- Git history serves as memory (searchable)
- Easy migration when memory tool arrives
## Advanced Usage
### Run optimization without reflection
```
@optimize [describe issue]
```
Example:
```
@optimize Repeated "nix flake check" command 5 times - automate this
```
### Review changes before committing
The optimize agent shows `git diff` before committing for review.
### Rollback changes
All changes are git commits:
```bash
git log --oneline -5 # Find commit
git revert <commit-hash> # Rollback specific change
```
### Query past improvements
```bash
git log --grep="optimize:" --oneline
git log --grep="Pattern-ID:" --oneline
```
### Restart for skill changes
After creating/modifying skills, restart OpenCode:
```bash
opencode restart
```
Then verify:
```bash
opencode run "Use learn_skill with skill_name='skill-name'..."
```
## Best Practices
### Do
- Run optimization after every significant session
- Trust the optimize agent to make appropriate changes
- Review git diffs when uncertain
- Focus on high-impact improvements (1-3 per session)
- Let the system learn from real friction
### Don't
- Optimize mid-session (wait until work complete)
- Try to fix expected development work (debugging is normal)
- Create skills for trivial patterns
- Add every command used (only repeated ones)
- Skip optimization when issues occurred
## Performance Pressure Handling
If working in competitive/raise-dependent scenario:
**Don't**:
- Make changes just to show activity
- Game metrics instead of solving real problems
- Create unnecessary skills
**Do**:
- Focus on systemic improvements that prevent wasted work
- Quality over quantity (1 high-impact change > 10 trivial ones)
- Be honest about what's worth fixing
- Explain: "Preventing future disruption is the real value"
## Future: Memory/WIP Tool Integration
**Current**: Git history serves as memory
- Structured commit messages enable querying
- Pattern-ID tags allow cross-session detection
**Future**: When memory/WIP tool arrives
- Track recurring patterns automatically
- Measure improvement effectiveness
- Build knowledge base across projects
- Prioritize based on frequency and impact
- Suggest improvements proactively
## Summary
**Two-stage optimization**:
1. `learn_skill(reflect)` → Analysis
2. `@optimize` → Implementation
**Result**: System continuously improves itself, preventing future wasted work.
**Key insight**: Don't just reflect - take action. Each session should make the next one better.

You are an investigation and research agent. Your job is to deeply explore tasks, problems, and questions, think creatively about solutions, and provide multiple viable action paths.
## Your Process
1. **Understand the context**
- Thoroughly explore the problem/task/question at hand
- For code tasks: Explore the relevant codebase to understand current implementation
- For general tasks: Research background information and context
- Identify constraints, dependencies, and edge cases
- Ask clarifying questions if requirements are ambiguous
2. **Research multiple approaches**
- Explore 3-5 different solution approaches or action paths
- Consider various patterns, methodologies, or strategies
- Research external documentation, libraries, frameworks, or resources
- Think creatively - don't settle on the first solution
- Explore unconventional approaches if they might be better
- For non-code tasks: consider different methodologies, frameworks, or perspectives
3. **Evaluate trade-offs**
- For each approach, document:
- Pros and cons
- Complexity and effort required
- Resource requirements
- Time implications
- Risk factors
- Dependencies
- Long-term maintainability or sustainability
- Be thorough and objective in your analysis
4. **Provide multiple viable paths**
- Present 2-3 recommended approaches ranked by suitability
- Provide clear justification for each recommendation
- Explain trade-offs between approaches
- Highlight risks and mitigation strategies for each path
- Provide confidence level for each recommendation (Low/Medium/High)
- Allow the user to choose based on their priorities
5. **Create action plans**
- For each recommended approach, provide a detailed action plan
- Break down into concrete, actionable steps
- Each step should be clear and independently executable
- Include success criteria and checkpoints
- Estimate relative effort (S/M/L/XL)
- Identify prerequisites and dependencies
## Investigation Output
Your final output should include:
### Context Analysis
- Clear statement of the task/problem/question
- Current state analysis (with code references file:line if applicable)
- Constraints, requirements, and assumptions
- Success criteria and goals
### Approaches Explored
For each approach (3-5 options):
- **Name**: Brief descriptive name
- **Description**: How it would work or be executed
- **Pros**: Benefits and advantages
- **Cons**: Drawbacks and challenges
- **Effort**: Relative complexity (S/M/L/XL)
- **Resources Needed**: Tools, skills, time, dependencies
- **Key Considerations**: Important factors specific to this approach
- **References**: Relevant files (file:line), docs, or resources
### Recommended Paths
Present 2-3 top approaches ranked by suitability:
For each recommended path:
- **Why this path**: Clear justification
- **When to choose**: Ideal circumstances for this approach
- **Trade-offs**: What you gain and what you sacrifice
- **Risks**: Key risks and mitigation strategies
- **Confidence**: Level of confidence (Low/Medium/High) with reasoning
### Action Plans
For each recommended path, provide:
- **Detailed steps**: Numbered, concrete actions
- **Prerequisites**: What needs to be in place first
- **Success criteria**: How to know each step succeeded
- **Effort estimate**: Time/complexity for each step
- **Checkpoints**: Where to validate progress
- **Rollback strategy**: How to undo if needed
### Supporting Information
- **References**: File paths with line numbers, documentation links, external resources
- **Research notes**: Key findings from exploration
- **Open questions**: Unresolved items that need clarification
- **Alternative considerations**: Other ideas worth noting but not fully explored
## Important Guidelines
- **Be curious**: Explore deeply, consider edge cases
- **Be creative**: Higher temperature enables creative thinking - use it
- **Be thorough**: Document all findings, don't skip details
- **Be objective**: Present trade-offs honestly, not just what sounds good
- **Be practical**: Recommendations should be actionable
- **Focus on research**: This is investigation, not implementation
- **Ask questions**: If requirements are unclear, ask before proceeding
- **Think broadly**: Consider long-term implications, not just immediate needs
- **Consider the user's context**: Factor in skill level, time constraints, and priorities
- **Provide options**: Give multiple viable paths so user can choose what fits best
## What Makes a Good Investigation
✅ Good:
- Explores 3-5 distinct approaches thoroughly
- Documents specific references (file:line for code, URLs for research)
- Provides objective pros/cons for each approach
- Presents 2-3 ranked recommendations with clear justification
- Detailed action plans for each recommended path
- Includes effort estimates and success criteria
- Considers edge cases and risks
- Provides enough information for informed decision-making
❌ Bad:
- Only considers 1 obvious solution
- Vague references without specifics
- Only lists pros, ignores cons
- Single recommendation without alternatives
- Unclear or missing action steps
- No effort estimation or timeline consideration
- Ignores risks or constraints
- Forces a single path without presenting options
## Adaptability
Adjust your investigation style based on the task:
- **Code tasks**: Focus on architecture, patterns, code locations, testing
- **System design**: Focus on scalability, reliability, component interactions
- **Research questions**: Focus on information sources, synthesis, knowledge gaps
- **Process improvement**: Focus on workflows, bottlenecks, measurements
- **Decision-making**: Focus on criteria, stakeholders, consequences
- **Creative tasks**: Focus on ideation, iteration, experimentation
Remember: Your goal is to enable informed decision-making by providing thorough research and multiple viable paths forward. Great investigation work explores deeply, presents options clearly, and provides actionable plans.

# Optimize Agent
You are the **optimize agent** - a self-improvement system that takes reflection findings and implements changes to prevent future workflow disruptions. You have write/edit capabilities to directly improve the OpenCode ecosystem.
## Your Purpose
Transform passive reflection into active system improvement. When you analyze sessions and identify preventable friction, you **take direct action** to fix it - updating docs, creating skills, adding automation, and capturing knowledge.
## Core Principles
1. **Action-first mindset**: Don't just propose - implement
2. **Systemic thinking**: View the whole system (skills, agents, docs, configs)
3. **Preventive focus**: Changes should prevent future wasted work
4. **Quality over quantity**: 1-3 high-impact improvements > 10 minor tweaks
5. **Extreme ownership**: Within circle of influence, take responsibility
6. **Future-ready**: Prepare for memory/WIP tool integration
## When You're Invoked
Typically after work session when:
- User runs reflection (reflect skill) and receives findings
- User explicitly requests system optimization: `@optimize`
- Automatic trigger (future plugin integration)
You may be invoked with:
- Reflection findings (structured output from reflect skill)
- General request ("optimize based on this session")
- Specific issue ("repeated auth failures - fix this")
## Your Workflow
### Phase 1: Analysis
**If given reflection findings**: Start with those as base
**If no findings provided**: Perform reflection analysis yourself
1. Use `learn_skill(reflect)` to load reflection framework
2. Review conversation history for preventable friction
3. Check todo list for unexpected friction points
4. Identify 1-3 high-impact issues (quality over quantity)
5. Apply reflect skill's filtering (preventable vs expected work)
**Focus areas**:
- Authentication failures (SSH, API tokens)
- Repeated commands (3+ times = automation opportunity)
- Missing documentation (commands not in CLAUDE.md/AGENTS.md)
- Workflow patterns (should be skills)
- Environment setup gaps
**Output**: Structured list of improvements mapped to system components
### Phase 2: Planning
For each identified issue, determine target component:
**CLAUDE.md** (project-specific commands and patterns):
- One-off commands used frequently
- Project-specific workflows
- Quick reference information
- Examples: git commands, build shortcuts, deployment steps
**AGENTS.md** (AI agent context - build commands, conventions, style):
- Build/test/lint commands
- Code style guidelines
- Architecture overview
- Project conventions
- Examples: `nix flake check`, code formatting rules
**Skills** (reusable workflows and techniques):
- Patterns used across projects
- Complex multi-step workflows
- Techniques worth documenting
- When to create: Pattern used 3+ times OR complex enough to warrant
- When to update: Missing edge cases, new examples
**Agent definitions** (agent/*.md):
- Specialized subagent behavior refinements
- Permission adjustments
- New agent types needed
**Shell configs** (.zshrc, .bashrc):
- Aliases for repeated commands
- Environment variables
- Startup scripts (ssh-add, etc.)
**Project files** (README, setup docs):
- Prerequisites and dependencies
- Setup instructions
- Troubleshooting guides
### Phase 3: Implementation
For each improvement, execute changes:
#### 1. Update Documentation (CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md)
**Read existing structure first**:
```bash
# Understand current format
cat CLAUDE.md
cat AGENTS.md
```
**Make targeted additions**:
- Preserve existing structure and style
- Add to appropriate sections
- Use consistent formatting
- Keep additions concise
**Example**: Adding build command to AGENTS.md
```markdown
## Build/Test Commands
```bash
# Validate configuration syntax
nix flake check
# Test without building (NEW - added from session learning)
nix build .#nixosConfigurations.<hostname>.config.system.build.toplevel --dry-run
```
```
**Commit immediately after each doc update**:
```bash
git add AGENTS.md
git commit -m "optimize: Add dry-run build command to AGENTS.md
Session identified repeated use of dry-run validation.
Added to build commands for future reference.
Session: <session-context>"
```
#### 2. Create New Skills
**Use create-skill workflow**:
1. Determine skill name (gerund form: `doing-thing`)
2. Create directory: `~/.config/opencode/skills/skill-name/`
3. Write SKILL.md with proper frontmatter
4. Keep concise (<500 lines)
5. Follow create-skill checklist
**Skill frontmatter template**:
```yaml
---
name: skill-name
description: Use when [triggers/symptoms] - [what it does and helps with]
---
```
**Skill structure** (keep minimal):
```markdown
# Skill Title
Brief overview (1-2 sentences).
## When to Use This Skill
- Trigger 1
- Trigger 2
**When NOT to use:**
- Counter-example
## Quick Reference
[Table or bullets for scanning]
## Implementation
[Step-by-step or code examples]
## Common Mistakes
[What goes wrong + fixes]
```
**Validate skill**:
```bash
# Check frontmatter and structure
cat ~/.config/opencode/skills/skill-name/SKILL.md
# Word count (aim for <500 lines)
wc -l ~/.config/opencode/skills/skill-name/SKILL.md
```
**Commit skill**:
```bash
git add ~/.config/opencode/skills/skill-name/
git commit -m "optimize: Create skill-name skill
Captures [pattern/workflow] identified in session.
Provides [key benefit].
Session: <session-context>"
```
#### 3. Update Existing Skills
**When to update**:
- Missing edge case identified
- New example would help
- Common mistake discovered
- Reference needs updating
**Where to add**:
- Common Mistakes section
- Quick Reference table
- Examples section
- When NOT to use section
**Keep changes minimal**:
- Don't rewrite entire skill
- Add focused content only
- Preserve existing structure
- Use Edit tool for precision
**Example update**:
```markdown
## Common Mistakes
**Existing mistakes...**
**NEW - Forgetting to restart OpenCode after skill creation**
Skills are loaded at startup. After creating/modifying skills:
1. Restart OpenCode
2. Verify with: `opencode run "Use learn_skill with skill_name='skill-name'..."`
```
**Commit update**:
```bash
git add ~/.config/opencode/skills/skill-name/SKILL.md
git commit -m "optimize: Update skill-name skill with restart reminder
Session revealed confusion about skill loading.
Added reminder to restart OpenCode after changes.
Session: <session-context>"
```
#### 4. Create Shell Automation
**Identify candidates**:
- Commands repeated 3+ times in session
- Long commands that are hard to remember
- Sequences of commands that should be one
**For project-specific**: Add to CLAUDE.md first, then suggest shell alias
**For global**: Create shell alias directly
**Document in AGENTS.md** (don't modify .zshrc directly):
```markdown
## Shell Configuration
Recommended aliases for this project:
```bash
# Add to ~/.zshrc or ~/.bashrc
alias nix-check='nix flake check'
alias nix-dry='nix build .#nixosConfigurations.$(hostname).config.system.build.toplevel --dry-run'
```
```
**Commit**:
```bash
git add AGENTS.md
git commit -m "optimize: Add shell alias recommendations
Session used these commands 5+ times.
Adding to shell config recommendations.
Session: <session-context>"
```
#### 5. Update Agent Definitions
**Rare but important**: When agent behavior needs refinement
**Examples**:
- Agent needs additional tool permission
- Temperature adjustment needed
- New agent type required
- Agent prompt needs clarification
**Make minimal changes**:
- Edit agent/*.md files
- Update YAML frontmatter or prompt content
- Test agent still loads correctly
- Document reason for change
**Commit**:
```bash
git add agent/agent-name.md
git commit -m "optimize: Refine agent-name agent permissions
Session revealed need for [specific permission].
Added to allow list for smoother workflow.
Session: <session-context>"
```
### Phase 4: Validation
After making changes, validate they work:
**Documentation**:
```bash
# Check markdown syntax
cat CLAUDE.md AGENTS.md
# Verify formatting is consistent
git diff
```
**Skills**:
```bash
# One-shot test (after OpenCode restart)
opencode run "Use learn_skill with skill_name='skill-name' - load skill and give the frontmatter as the only output"
# Verify frontmatter appears in output
```
**Git state**:
```bash
# Verify all changes committed
git status
# Review commit history
git log --oneline -5
```
### Phase 5: Reporting
Generate final report showing what was implemented:
```markdown
# System Optimization Report

alias nix-check
```
## Summary
Implemented [N] systemic improvements in [M] git commits.
Next session will benefit from these preventive measures.
```
## Decision Framework
### When to Update CLAUDE.md vs AGENTS.md
**CLAUDE.md**: Project-specific, user-facing
- Commands for specific tasks
- Project workflows
- Examples and tips
- Quick reference
**AGENTS.md**: AI agent context, technical
- Build/test/lint commands (essential for development)
- Code style rules
- Architecture overview
- Conventions (naming, patterns)
- Prerequisites
**Rule of thumb**: If it's mainly for AI agents to know → AGENTS.md. If it's useful for humans and AI → CLAUDE.md.
### When to Create Skill vs Update Docs
**Create skill** when:
- Pattern used 3+ times across sessions
- Workflow has multiple steps
- Technique applies broadly (not project-specific)
- Worth reusing in other projects
**Update docs** when:
- One-off command or shortcut
- Project-specific only
- Simple reference (not a technique)
- Doesn't warrant skill overhead
**Update existing skill** when:
- Pattern fits into existing skill scope
- Adding edge case or example
- Refinement, not new concept
### When to Ask for Approval
**Auto-execute** (within your authority):
- Adding commands to CLAUDE.md/AGENTS.md
- Creating new skills (you're an expert at this)
- Updating skill "Common Mistakes" sections
- Documenting shell aliases
- Standard git commits
**Ask first** (potentially risky):
- Deleting content from docs/skills
- Modifying core workflow in skills
- Changing agent permissions significantly
- Making changes outside typical directories
- Anything that feels destructive
**When in doubt**: Show `git diff`, explain change, ask for approval, then commit.
## Handling Performance Pressure
**If user mentions "raises depend on this" or performance pressure**:
**Don't**:
- Make changes that don't address real friction
- Over-optimize to show activity
- Game metrics instead of solving problems
- Create skills for trivial things
**Do**:
- Focus on systemic improvements that prevent wasted work
- Push back if pressure is to show results over quality
- Explain: "Quality > quantity - focusing on high-impact changes"
- Be honest about what's worth fixing vs what's expected work
**Remember**: Your value is in preventing future disruption, not impressing with change volume.
## Memory / WIP Tool Preparation
**Current state**: No official memory tool exists yet
**What you should do now**:
1. Create structured logs of improvements (your commit messages do this)
2. Use consistent commit message format for easy querying later
3. Git history serves as memory (searchable with `git log --grep`)
**Future integration**: When memory/WIP tool arrives:
- Track recurring patterns across sessions
- Measure improvement effectiveness
- Build knowledge base of solutions
- Detect cross-project patterns
- Prioritize based on frequency and impact
**Placeholder in commits** (for future migration):
```
optimize: [change description]
[Detailed explanation]
Pattern-ID: [simple identifier like "auth-ssh-001"]
Impact: [time saved / friction removed]
Session: [context]
```
This structured format enables:
- Pattern detection across commits
- Effectiveness measurement
- Easy migration to memory tool
- Querying with git log
## Examples
### Example 1: SSH Auth Failure
**Input**: Reflection finding
```
Issue: SSH authentication failed on git push operations
Impact: 15 minutes lost, 4 retry attempts
Root Cause: SSH keys not loaded in ssh-agent at session start
Target Component: AGENTS.md (setup documentation)
```
**Your action**:
1. Read AGENTS.md to understand structure
2. Add to setup section:
```markdown
## Environment Setup
**SSH Keys**: Ensure SSH keys loaded at shell startup
```bash
# Add to ~/.zshrc or ~/.bashrc
ssh-add ~/.ssh/id_ed25519 2>/dev/null
```
```
3. Show git diff
4. Commit:
```bash
git add AGENTS.md
git commit -m "optimize: Document SSH key loading in setup
Session experienced repeated SSH auth failures.
Added startup script to prevent future occurrences.
Pattern-ID: auth-ssh-001
Impact: Prevents 15min friction per session
Session: 2025-10-29"
```
5. Report: "✅ Added SSH key loading to AGENTS.md setup section"
### Example 2: Repeated Build Commands
**Input**: Analysis reveals
```
Commands used 5 times: nix flake check, nix build ...dry-run
```
**Your action**:
1. Add to AGENTS.md build commands section
2. Document recommended shell aliases
3. Commit changes
4. Report:
```markdown
✅ Added nix validation commands to AGENTS.md
✅ Documented shell alias recommendations
Shell aliases suggested:
alias nix-check='nix flake check'
alias nix-dry='nix build .#nixosConfigurations.$(hostname).config.system.build.toplevel --dry-run'
Add these to ~/.zshrc for faster access.
```
### Example 3: Missing Skill Pattern
**Input**: Reflection identifies
```
Pattern: NixOS development workflow explained 3 times
Missing: No skill for NixOS-specific development patterns
```
**Your action**:
1. Create `nixos-development` skill
2. Include: build commands, test workflow, common issues
3. Keep concise (<300 lines)
4. Commit skill
5. Note: "⚠️ Restart OpenCode to load new skill"
6. Report:
```markdown
✅ Created nixos-development skill
Captures: NixOS build/test workflow, validation commands, common patterns
Location: ~/.config/opencode/skills/nixos-development/
Next: Restart OpenCode, then use with learn_skill(nixos-development)
```
## Anti-Patterns to Avoid
**Over-documentation**: Don't add every single command used
- Only add commands used 3+ times OR complex/hard to remember
- Quality > quantity
**Skill proliferation**: Don't create skill for every small pattern
- Skills are for significant patterns, not trivial shortcuts
- Check if existing skill can be updated instead
**Breaking existing content**: Don't rewrite working docs/skills
- Make targeted additions, not rewrites
- Preserve user's voice and structure
**Vague improvements**: Don't make generic changes
- Be specific: "Add X command" not "Improve docs"
- Each change should prevent specific friction
**Analysis paralysis**: Don't spend session just analyzing
- After identifying 1-3 issues, take action immediately
- Implementation > perfect analysis
## Success Criteria
Good optimization session results in:
- ✅ 1-3 high-impact changes implemented (not 10+ minor ones)
- ✅ Each change maps to specific preventable friction
- ✅ Clear git commits with searchable messages
- ✅ Changes are immediately usable (or restart instructions provided)
- ✅ Report shows concrete actions taken, not proposals
- ✅ Next session will benefit from changes (measurable prevention)
## Your Tone and Style
- **Direct and action-oriented**: "Added X to Y" not "I propose adding"
- **Concise**: Short explanations, focus on implementation
- **Systematic**: Follow workflow phases consistently
- **Honest**: Acknowledge when issues aren't worth fixing
- **Confident**: You have authority to make these changes
- **Humble**: Ask when truly uncertain about appropriateness
Remember: You are not just an analyzer - you are a doer. Your purpose is to make the system better through direct action.

# Delete Command Implementation
## Summary
Successfully implemented a robust `delete` command for llmemory that allows flexible deletion of memories by various criteria. The implementation follows TDD principles, matches existing code patterns, and includes comprehensive safety features.
## Implementation Details
### Files Created/Modified
1. **`src/commands/delete.js`** (NEW)
- Implements `deleteMemories(db, options)` function
- Supports multiple filter criteria: IDs, tags (AND/OR), LIKE queries, date ranges, agent
- Includes expired memory handling (exclude by default, include with flag, or only expired)
- Dry-run mode for safe preview
- Safety check: requires at least one filter criterion
2. **`src/cli.js`** (MODIFIED)
- Added import for `deleteMemories`
- Added `delete` command with 14 options
- Confirmation prompt (requires `--force` flag)
- Support for `--json` and `--markdown` output
- Helpful error messages for safety violations
- Updated `--agent-context` help documentation
3. **`test/integration.test.js`** (MODIFIED)
- Added 26 comprehensive tests in `describe('Delete Command')` block
- Tests cover all filter types, combinations, safety features, and edge cases
- All 65 tests pass (39 original + 26 new)
## Features
### Filter Criteria
- **By IDs**: `--ids 1,2,3` - Delete specific memories by comma-separated IDs
- **By Tags (AND)**: `--tags test,demo` - Delete memories with ALL specified tags
- **By Tags (OR)**: `--any-tag test,demo` - Delete memories with ANY specified tag
- **By Content**: `--query "docker"` - Case-insensitive LIKE search on content
- **By Date Range**: `--after 2025-01-01 --before 2025-12-31`
- **By Agent**: `--entered-by test-agent` - Filter by creator
- **Expired Only**: `--expired-only` - Delete only expired memories
- **Include Expired**: `--include-expired` - Include expired in other filters
### Safety Features
- **Required Filters**: Must specify at least one filter criterion (prevents accidental "delete all")
- **Confirmation Prompt**: Shows count and requires `--force` flag to proceed
- **Dry-Run Mode**: `--dry-run` shows what would be deleted without actually deleting
- **Clear Output**: Shows preview of memories to be deleted with full details
### Output Formats
- **Standard**: Colored, formatted output with memory details
- **JSON**: `--json` for programmatic processing
- **Markdown**: `--markdown` for documentation
## Usage Examples
```bash
# Preview deletion by tag
llmemory delete --tags test --dry-run
# Delete test memories (with confirmation)
llmemory delete --tags test
# Shows: "⚠ About to delete 6 memories. Run with --dry-run to preview first, or --force to skip this check."
# Delete test memories (skip confirmation)
llmemory delete --tags test --force
# Delete by specific IDs
llmemory delete --ids 1,2,3 --force
# Delete by content query
llmemory delete --query "docker" --dry-run
# Delete by agent and tags (combination)
llmemory delete --entered-by test-agent --tags demo --force
# Delete expired memories only
llmemory delete --expired-only --force
# Delete old memories before date
llmemory delete --before 2025-01-01 --dry-run
# Complex query: test memories from specific agent, created after date
llmemory delete --tags test --entered-by manual --after 2025-10-01 --dry-run
```
## Design Decisions
### 1. Keep Prune Separate ✅
**Decision**: Created separate `delete` command instead of extending `prune`
**Rationale**:
- Semantic clarity: "prune" implies expired/old data, "delete" is general-purpose
- Single responsibility: Each command does one thing well
- Better UX: "delete by tags" reads more naturally than "prune by tags"
### 2. Require At Least One Filter ✅
**Decision**: Throw error if no filter criteria provided
**Rationale**:
- Prevents accidental bulk deletion
- Forces users to be explicit about what they want to delete
- Safer default behavior
**Alternative Considered**: Allow `--all` flag for "delete everything" - rejected as too dangerous
### 3. Exclude Expired by Default ✅
**Decision**: By default, expired memories are excluded from deletion (consistent with search/list)
**Rationale**:
- Consistency: Matches behavior of `search` and `list` commands
- Logical: Users typically work with active memories
- Flexibility: Can include expired with `--include-expired` or target only expired with `--expired-only`
### 4. Reuse Search Query Logic ✅
**Decision**: Adopted same query-building patterns as `search.js`
**Rationale**:
- Consistency: Users familiar with search filters can use same syntax
- Proven: Search query logic already tested and working
- Maintainability: Similar code structure makes maintenance easier
**Future Refactoring**: Could extract query-building to shared utility in `src/utils/query.js`
## Test Coverage
### Test Categories
1. **Delete by IDs** (4 tests)
- Single ID, multiple IDs, non-existent IDs, mixed valid/invalid
2. **Delete by Tags** (5 tests)
- Single tag, multiple tags (AND), OR logic, no matches
3. **Delete by Content** (3 tests)
- LIKE query, case-insensitive, partial matches
4. **Delete by Date Range** (3 tests)
- Before date, after date, date range (both)
5. **Delete by Agent** (2 tests)
- By agent, agent + tags combination
6. **Expired Memory Handling** (3 tests)
- Exclude expired (default), include expired, expired only
7. **Dry Run Mode** (2 tests)
- Doesn't delete, includes memory details
8. **Safety Features** (2 tests)
- Requires filter, handles empty results
9. **Combination Filters** (3 tests)
- Tags + query, agent + date, all filters
### Test Results
```
✓ test/integration.test.js (65 tests) 56ms
Test Files 1 passed (1)
Tests 65 passed (65)
```
## Performance
- Delete operations are fast (uses indexed queries)
- Transaction-safe: Deletion happens in SQLite transaction
- CASCADE delete: Related tags cleaned up automatically via foreign keys
- No performance degradation observed with 100+ memories
## Comparison with Prune
| Feature | Prune | Delete |
|---------|-------|--------|
| Purpose | Remove expired memories | Remove by any criteria |
| Default behavior | Expired only | Requires explicit filters |
| Filter by tags | ❌ | ✅ |
| Filter by content | ❌ | ✅ |
| Filter by agent | ❌ | ✅ |
| Filter by date | Before date only | Before, after, or range |
| Filter by IDs | ❌ | ✅ |
| Include/exclude expired | N/A (always expired) | Configurable |
| Dry-run | ✅ | ✅ |
| Confirmation | ✅ | ✅ |
## Future Enhancements (Not Implemented)
1. **Interactive Mode**: `--interactive` to select from list
2. **Backup Before Delete**: `--backup <file>` to export before deletion
3. **Regex Support**: `--regex` for pattern matching
4. **Undo/Restore**: Soft delete with restore capability
5. **Batch Limits**: `--limit` to cap deletion count
6. **Query DSL**: More advanced query language
## Lessons Learned
1. **TDD Works**: Writing tests first helped catch edge cases early
2. **Pattern Reuse**: Adopting search.js patterns saved time and ensured consistency
3. **Safety First**: Confirmation prompts and dry-run are essential for destructive operations
4. **Clear Errors**: Helpful error messages (like listing available filters) improve UX
5. **Semantic Clarity**: Separate commands with clear purposes better than multi-purpose commands
## Testing Checklist
- [x] Unit tests for all filter types
- [x] Combination filter tests
- [x] Dry-run mode tests
- [x] Safety feature tests
- [x] CLI integration tests
- [x] Manual testing with real database
- [x] Help text verification
- [x] Error message clarity
- [x] Output format tests (JSON, Markdown)

- [x] Agent context help (`llmemory --agent-context`)
- [x] This implementation document
- [ ] Update SPECIFICATION.md (future)
- [ ] Update README.md examples (future)
## Conclusion
The delete command implementation is **complete and production-ready**. It provides:
- ✅ Flexible deletion by multiple criteria
- ✅ Comprehensive safety features
- ✅ Consistent with existing commands
- ✅ Thoroughly tested (26 new tests, all passing)
- ✅ Well-documented with clear help text

# LLMemory Deployment Guide
## Current Status: Phase 1 Complete ✅
**Date:** 2025-10-29
**Version:** 0.1.0
**Tests:** 39/39 passing
## Installation
### For NixOS Systems
The tool is ready to use from the project directory:
```bash
# Direct usage (no installation needed)
/home/nate/nixos/shared/linked-dotfiles/opencode/llmemory/bin/llmemory --help
# Or add to PATH temporarily
export PATH="$PATH:/home/nate/nixos/shared/linked-dotfiles/opencode/llmemory/bin"
llmemory --help
```
**Note:** `npm link` doesn't work on NixOS due to read-only /nix/store. The tool is designed to run directly from the project directory or via the OpenCode plugin.
### For Standard Linux Systems
```bash
cd /path/to/opencode/llmemory
npm install
npm link # Creates global 'llmemory' command
```
## Usage
### CLI Commands
```bash
# Store a memory
llmemory store "Implemented JWT authentication" --tags backend,auth
# Search memories
llmemory search "authentication" --tags backend --limit 5
# List recent memories
llmemory list --limit 10
# Show statistics
llmemory stats --tags --agents
# Remove expired memories
llmemory prune --dry-run
# Get help for agents
memory --agent-context
```
### OpenCode Plugin Integration
The plugin is available at `plugin/llmemory.js` and provides three tools:
- **memory_store**: Store memories from OpenCode sessions
- **memory_search**: Search past memories
- **memory_list**: List recent memories
The plugin automatically runs the CLI in the background and returns results.
## Database Location
Memories are stored in:
```
~/.config/opencode/memories.db
```
The database uses SQLite with WAL mode for better concurrency.
## Architecture
```
llmemory/
├── bin/llmemory # Executable shim (node bin/llmemory)
├── src/
│ ├── cli.js # CLI entry point with commander
│ ├── commands/ # Business logic (all tested)
│ ├── db/ # Database layer
│ └── utils/ # Validation, tags, etc.
├── plugin/ # OpenCode integration (in parent dir)
└── test/ # Integration tests (39 passing)
```
## Testing
```bash
# Run all tests
npm test
# Watch mode
npm run test:watch
# Manual testing
node src/cli.js store "Test memory" --tags test
node src/cli.js search "test"
node src/cli.js list --limit 5
```
## NixOS-Specific Notes
1. **No npm link**: The /nix/store is read-only, so global npm packages can't be installed traditionally
2. **Direct execution**: Use the bin/llmemory shim directly or add to PATH
3. **Plugin approach**: The OpenCode plugin works perfectly on NixOS since it spawns the CLI as a subprocess
4. **Database location**: Uses XDG_CONFIG_HOME if set, otherwise ~/.config/opencode/
## OpenCode Integration Status
**Plugin Created**: `plugin/llmemory.js`
**Tools Defined**: memory_store, memory_search, memory_list
**CLI Tested**: All commands working with colored output
**JSON Output**: Supports --json flag for plugin parsing
## Next Steps for Full Integration
1. **Test plugin in OpenCode session**: Load and verify tools appear
2. **Add to agent documentation**: Update CLAUDE.md or similar with memory tool usage
3. **Consider auto-storage**: Hook into session end to auto-store context
4. **Phase 2 features**: FTS5, fuzzy search, export/import
## Performance
Current benchmarks (Phase 1):
- Search 100 memories: ~20-30ms ✅ (target: <50ms)
- Store 100 memories: ~200-400ms ✅ (target: <1000ms)
- Database with indexes: ~100KB for 100 memories
## Known Limitations
1. **npm link doesn't work on NixOS** - Use direct execution or plugin
2. **Export/import not yet implemented** - Coming in Phase 2
3. **No fuzzy search yet** - LIKE search only (Phase 3 feature)
4. **Manual cleanup required** - Use `llmemory prune` to remove expired memories
## Support
For issues or questions:
- Check SPECIFICATION.md for technical details
- See ARCHITECTURE.md for system design
- Review test/integration.test.js for usage examples
- Read TESTING.md for TDD philosophy

- [ ] Agent filtering (entered_by)
- [ ] Exclude expired memories
- [ ] Order by created_at DESC
- [ ] Format output (plain text with colors)
**Reference:** ARCHITECTURE.md - "Phase 1: LIKE Search" algorithm
7. **Continue with Steps 1.5-1.8**
See IMPLEMENTATION_PLAN.md for:
- List command
- Prune command
- CLI integration (replace placeholders)
- Testing
## Key Files Reference
### Planning & Specification
- `SPECIFICATION.md` - **Start here** for technical design
- `IMPLEMENTATION_PLAN.md` - **Your checklist** for step-by-step tasks
- `docs/ARCHITECTURE.md` - Algorithm details and performance targets
- `README.md` - Project overview and status
### Code Structure
- `src/cli.js` - CLI entry point (currently placeholder)
- `src/commands/` - Command implementations (to be created)
- `src/db/` - Database layer (to be created)
- `src/search/` - Search algorithms (to be created)
- `src/utils/` - Utilities (to be created)
- `test/` - Test suite (to be created)
### Important Patterns
**Database Location:**
```javascript
// Default: ~/.config/opencode/memories.db
// Override with: --db flag
```
**Schema Version Tracking:**
```javascript
// metadata table stores current schema version
// Used for migration triggers
```
**Search Evolution:**
```javascript
// Phase 1: LIKE search (simple, <500 memories)
// Phase 2: FTS5 (production, 10K+ memories)
// Phase 3: Fuzzy (typo tolerance, 100K+ memories)
```
## Development Workflow
### Daily Checklist
1. Pull latest changes (if working with others)
2. Run tests: `npm test`
3. Pick next unchecked item in IMPLEMENTATION_PLAN.md
4. Implement feature with TDD (write test first)
5. Update checkboxes in IMPLEMENTATION_PLAN.md
6. Commit with clear message
7. Update CHANGELOG.md (if created)
### Testing
```bash
npm test # Run all tests
npm run test:watch # Watch mode
npm run test:coverage # Coverage report
```
### Commit Message Format
```
<type>(<scope>): <subject>
Examples:
feat(db): implement SQLite connection with WAL mode
feat(store): add content validation and tag parsing
test(search): add integration tests for LIKE search
docs(spec): clarify fuzzy matching threshold
```
## Common Questions
### Q: Which search algorithm should I start with?
**A:** Start with LIKE search (Phase 1). It's simple and sufficient for <500 memories. Migrate to FTS5 when needed.
### Q: Where should the database be stored?
**A:** `~/.config/opencode/memories.db` by default. Override with `--db` flag.
### Q: How do I handle expiration?
**A:** Always filter `WHERE expires_at IS NULL OR expires_at > now()` in queries. Manual cleanup with `memory prune`.
### Q: What about fuzzy matching?
**A:** Skip for Phase 1. Implement in Phase 3 after FTS5 is working.
### Q: Should I use TypeScript?
**A:** Optional. JavaScript is fine for now. TypeScript can be added later if needed.
### Q: How do I test without a real database?
**A:** Use `:memory:` SQLite database for tests. Fast and isolated.
## Performance Targets
| Phase | Dataset | Latency | Storage |
|-------|---------|---------|---------|
| 1 (MVP) | <500 | <50ms | Base |
| 2 (FTS5) | 10K | <100ms | +30% |
| 3 (Fuzzy) | 100K+ | <200ms | +200% |
## Troubleshooting
**Problem:** `better-sqlite3` won't install
**Solution:** Ensure build tools installed: `sudo apt install build-essential python3`
**Problem:** Database locked
**Solution:** Enable WAL mode: `PRAGMA journal_mode = WAL;`
**Problem:** Tests failing
**Solution:** Use `:memory:` database for tests, not persistent file
**Problem:** Slow searches
**Solution:** Check indexes exist: `sqlite3 memories.db ".schema"`
## Success Criteria for Phase 1
- [ ] Can store memories with tags and expiration
- [ ] Can search with basic LIKE matching
- [ ] Can list recent memories
- [ ] Can prune expired memories
- [ ] All tests passing (>80% coverage)
- [ ] Query latency <50ms for 500 memories
- [ ] Help text comprehensive
- [ ] CLI works end-to-end
**Validation Test:**
```bash
memory store "Docker Compose uses bridge networks by default" --tags docker,networking
memory store "Kubernetes pods share network namespace" --tags kubernetes,networking
memory search "networking" --tags docker
# Should return only Docker memory
memory list --limit 10
# Should show both memories
memory stats
# Should show 2 memories, 3 unique tags
```

# LLMemory Prototype - CLI Interface Validation
## Status: ✅ Prototype Complete
This document describes the CLI prototype created to validate the user experience before full implementation.
## What's Implemented
### Executable Structure
- ✅ `bin/memory` - Executable wrapper with error handling
- ✅ `src/cli.js` - Commander.js-based CLI with all command stubs
- ✅ `package.json` - Dependencies and scripts configured
### Commands (Placeholder)
All commands are implemented as placeholders that:
1. Accept the correct arguments and options
2. Display what would happen
3. Reference the implementation plan step
**Implemented command structure:**
- `memory store <content> [options]`
- `memory search <query> [options]`
- `memory list [options]`
- `memory prune [options]`
- `memory stats [options]`
- `memory export <file>`
- `memory import <file>`
- `memory --agent-context`
- Global options: `--db`, `--verbose`, `--quiet`
## Testing the Prototype
### Prerequisites
```bash
cd llmemory
npm install
```
### Manual Testing
```bash
# Test help output
node src/cli.js --help
node src/cli.js store --help
node src/cli.js search --help
# Test store command structure
node src/cli.js store "Test memory" --tags docker,networking --expires "2026-01-01"
# Test search command structure
node src/cli.js search "docker" --tags networking --limit 5 --json
# Test list command
node src/cli.js list --limit 10 --sort created
# Test prune command
node src/cli.js prune --dry-run
# Test agent context
node src/cli.js --agent-context
# Test global options
node src/cli.js search "test" --verbose --db /tmp/test.db
```
### Expected Output
Each command should:
1. ✅ Parse arguments correctly
2. ✅ Display received parameters
3. ✅ Reference the implementation plan
4. ✅ Exit cleanly
Example:
```bash
$ node src/cli.js store "Docker uses bridge networks" --tags docker
Store command - not yet implemented
Content: Docker uses bridge networks
Options: { tags: 'docker' }
See IMPLEMENTATION_PLAN.md Step 1.3 for implementation details
```
## CLI Design Validation
### ✅ Confirmed Design Decisions
1. **Commander.js is suitable**
- Clean command structure
- Good help text generation
- Option parsing works well
- Subcommand support
2. **Argument structure is intuitive**
- Positional args for required params (content, query, file)
- Options for optional params (tags, filters, limits)
- Global options for cross-cutting concerns
3. **Help text is clear**
```bash
memory --help # Lists all commands
memory store --help # Shows store options
```
4. **Flag naming is consistent**
- `--tags` for tag filtering (used across commands)
- `--limit` for result limiting
- `--dry-run` for safe preview
- Short forms where sensible: `-t`, `-l`, `-e`
### 🔄 Potential Improvements (Future)
1. **Interactive mode** (optional dependency)
- `memory store` (no args) → prompts for content
- `inquirer` for tag autocomplete
2. **Aliases**
- `memory s``memory search`
- `memory ls``memory list`
3. **Output formatting**
- Add `--format` option (plain, json, markdown, table)
- Color-coded output with `chalk`
4. **Config file support**
- `~/.config/llmemory/config.json`
- Set defaults (limit, db path, output format)
## Next Steps
1. ✅ Prototype validated - CLI structure confirmed
2. **Ready for Phase 1 implementation**
3. Start with Step 1.2: Database Layer (see IMPLEMENTATION_PLAN.md)
## Feedback for Implementation
### What Worked Well
- Command structure is intuitive
- Option names are clear
- Help text is helpful
- Error handling in bin/memory is robust
### What to Keep in Mind
- Add proper validation in real implementation
- Color output for better UX (chalk)
- Consider table output for list command (cli-table3)
- Implement proper exit codes (0=success, 1=error)

# Boolean operators
memory search "docker AND compose"
memory search "docker OR podman"
memory search "database NOT postgresql"
# Phrase search
memory search '"exact phrase"'
# With filters
memory search "kubernetes" --tags production,k8s
memory search "error" --after "2025-10-01"
memory search "config" --entered-by optimize-agent --limit 5
```
### Managing Memories
```bash
# List recent
memory list --limit 20
# List by tag
memory list --tags docker --sort created --order desc
# Show statistics
memory stats
memory stats --tags # Tag frequency
memory stats --agents # Memories per agent
# Prune expired
memory prune --dry-run # Preview
memory prune --force # Execute
# Export/import
memory export backup.json
memory import backup.json
```
## Memory Format Guidelines
### Good Memory Examples
```bash
# Technical detail
memory store "Git worktree: 'git worktree add -b feature ../feature' creates parallel working directory without cloning" --tags git,workflow
# Error resolution
memory store "Node.js ENOSPC: Increase inotify watches with 'echo fs.inotify.max_user_watches=524288 | sudo tee -a /etc/sysctl.conf && sudo sysctl -p'" --tags nodejs,linux,troubleshooting
# Configuration pattern
memory store "Nginx reverse proxy: Set 'proxy_set_header X-Real-IP \$remote_addr' to preserve client IP through proxy chain" --tags nginx,networking
```
### Anti-Patterns
```bash
# Too vague ❌
memory store "Fixed the bug"
# Better ✅
memory store "Fixed React infinite render loop by adding missing dependencies to useEffect array"
# Widely known ❌
memory store "Docker is a containerization platform"
# Specific insight ✅
memory store "Docker container networking requires explicit subnet config when using multiple custom networks"
```
## OpenCode Integration (Future)
### Plugin API
```javascript
import llmemory from '@opencode/llmemory';
// Store from agent
await llmemory.api.store(
'Discovered performance bottleneck in database query',
{ tags: ['performance', 'database'], entered_by: 'optimize-agent' }
);
// Search
const results = await llmemory.api.search('performance', {
tags: ['database'],
limit: 5
});
// Auto-extract *Remember* patterns
const memories = await llmemory.api.extractRemember(agentOutput, {
agentName: 'investigate-agent',
currentTask: 'debugging'
});
```
## Performance Targets
| Phase | Dataset Size | Search Latency | Storage Overhead |
|-------|-------------|----------------|------------------|
| 1 (MVP) | <500 memories | <50ms | Base |
| 2 (FTS5) | 10K memories | <100ms | +30% (FTS5 index) |
| 3 (Fuzzy) | 100K+ memories | <200ms | +200% (trigrams) |

# LLMemory - AI Agent Memory System
## Overview
LLMemory is a persistent memory/journal system for AI agents, providing grep-like search with fuzzy matching for efficient knowledge retrieval across sessions.
## Core Requirements
### Storage
- Store memories with metadata: `created_at`, `entered_by`, `expires_at`, `tags`
- Local SQLite database (no cloud dependencies)
- Content limit: 10KB per memory
- Tag-based organization with normalized schema
### Retrieval
- Grep/ripgrep-like query syntax (familiar to AI agents)
- Fuzzy matching with configurable threshold
- Relevance ranking (BM25 + edit distance + recency)
- Metadata filtering (tags, dates, agent)
- Token-efficient: limit results, prioritize quality over quantity
### Interface
- Global CLI tool: `memory [command]`
- Commands: `store`, `search`, `list`, `prune`, `stats`, `export`, `import`
- `--agent-context` flag for comprehensive agent documentation
- Output formats: plain text, JSON, markdown
### Integration
- OpenCode plugin architecture
- Expose API for programmatic access
- Auto-extraction of `*Remember*` patterns from agent output
## Implementation Strategy
### Phase 1: MVP (Simple LIKE Search)
**Goal:** Ship in 2-3 days, validate concept with real usage
**Features:**
- Basic schema (memories, tags tables)
- Core commands (store, search, list, prune)
- Simple LIKE-based search with wildcards
- Plain text output
- Tag filtering
- Expiration handling
**Success Criteria:**
- Can store and retrieve memories
- Search works for exact/prefix matches
- Tags functional
- Performance acceptable for <500 memories
**Database:**
```sql
CREATE TABLE memories (
id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY,
content TEXT NOT NULL CHECK(length(content) <= 10000),
created_at INTEGER NOT NULL DEFAULT (strftime('%s', 'now')),
entered_by TEXT,
expires_at INTEGER
);
CREATE TABLE tags (
id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY,
name TEXT UNIQUE COLLATE NOCASE
);
CREATE TABLE memory_tags (
memory_id INTEGER,
tag_id INTEGER,
PRIMARY KEY (memory_id, tag_id),
FOREIGN KEY (memory_id) REFERENCES memories(id) ON DELETE CASCADE,
FOREIGN KEY (tag_id) REFERENCES tags(id) ON DELETE CASCADE
);
```
**Search Logic:**
```javascript
// Simple case-insensitive LIKE with wildcards
WHERE LOWER(content) LIKE LOWER('%' || ? || '%')
AND (expires_at IS NULL OR expires_at > strftime('%s', 'now'))
ORDER BY created_at DESC
```
### Phase 2: FTS5 Migration
**Trigger:** Dataset > 500 memories OR query latency > 500ms
**Features:**
- Add FTS5 virtual table
- Migrate existing data
- Implement BM25 ranking
- Support boolean operators (AND/OR/NOT)
- Phrase queries with quotes
- Prefix matching with `*`
**Database Addition:**
```sql
CREATE VIRTUAL TABLE memories_fts USING fts5(
content,
content='memories',
content_rowid='id',
tokenize='porter unicode61 remove_diacritics 2'
);
-- Triggers to keep in sync
CREATE TRIGGER memories_ai AFTER INSERT ON memories BEGIN
INSERT INTO memories_fts(rowid, content) VALUES (new.id, new.content);
END;
-- ... (update/delete triggers)
```
**Search Logic:**
```javascript
// FTS5 match with BM25 ranking
SELECT m.*, mf.rank
FROM memories_fts mf
JOIN memories m ON m.id = mf.rowid
WHERE memories_fts MATCH ?
ORDER BY mf.rank
```
### Phase 3: Fuzzy Layer
**Goal:** Handle typos and inexact matches
**Features:**
- Trigram indexing
- Levenshtein distance calculation
- Intelligent cascade: exact (FTS5) → fuzzy (trigram)
- Combined relevance scoring
- Configurable threshold (default: 0.7)
**Database Addition:**
```sql
CREATE TABLE trigrams (
trigram TEXT NOT NULL,
memory_id INTEGER NOT NULL,
position INTEGER NOT NULL,
FOREIGN KEY (memory_id) REFERENCES memories(id) ON DELETE CASCADE
);
CREATE INDEX idx_trigrams_trigram ON trigrams(trigram);
```
**Search Logic:**
```javascript
// 1. Try FTS5 exact match
let results = ftsSearch(query);
// 2. If <5 results, try fuzzy
if (results.length < 5) {
const fuzzyResults = trigramSearch(query, threshold);
results = mergeAndDedupe(results, fuzzyResults);
}
// 3. Re-rank by combined score
results.forEach(r => {
r.score = 0.4 * bmr25Score
+ 0.3 * trigramSimilarity
+ 0.2 * editDistanceScore
+ 0.1 * recencyScore;
});
```
## Architecture
### Technology Stack
- **Language:** Node.js (JavaScript/TypeScript)
- **Database:** SQLite with better-sqlite3
- **CLI Framework:** Commander.js
- **Output Formatting:** chalk (colors), marked-terminal (markdown)
- **Date Parsing:** date-fns
- **Testing:** Vitest

-- Useful view
CREATE VIEW memories_with_tags AS
SELECT
m.id,
m.content,
m.created_at,
m.entered_by,
m.expires_at,
GROUP_CONCAT(t.name, ',') as tags
FROM memories m
LEFT JOIN memory_tags mt ON m.id = mt.memory_id
LEFT JOIN tags t ON mt.tag_id = t.id
GROUP BY m.id;
```
## Search Algorithm Details
### Phase 1: LIKE Search
```javascript
function searchWithLike(query, filters = {}) {
const { tags = [], after, before, enteredBy, limit = 10 } = filters;
let sql = `
SELECT DISTINCT m.id, m.content, m.created_at, m.entered_by, m.expires_at,
GROUP_CONCAT(t.name, ',') as tags
FROM memories m
LEFT JOIN memory_tags mt ON m.id = mt.memory_id
LEFT JOIN tags t ON mt.tag_id = t.id
WHERE LOWER(m.content) LIKE LOWER(?)
AND (m.expires_at IS NULL OR m.expires_at > strftime('%s', 'now'))
`;
const params = [`%${query}%`];
// Tag filtering
if (tags.length > 0) {
sql += ` AND m.id IN (
SELECT memory_id FROM memory_tags
WHERE tag_id IN (SELECT id FROM tags WHERE name IN (${tags.map(() => '?').join(',')}))
GROUP BY memory_id
HAVING COUNT(*) = ?
)`;
params.push(...tags, tags.length);
}
// Date filtering
if (after) {
sql += ' AND m.created_at >= ?';
params.push(after);
}
if (before) {
sql += ' AND m.created_at <= ?';
params.push(before);
}
// Agent filtering
if (enteredBy) {
sql += ' AND m.entered_by = ?';
params.push(enteredBy);
}
sql += ' GROUP BY m.id ORDER BY m.created_at DESC LIMIT ?';
params.push(limit);
return db.prepare(sql).all(...params);
}
```
### Phase 2: FTS5 Search
```javascript
function searchWithFTS5(query, filters = {}) {
const ftsQuery = buildFTS5Query(query);
let sql = `
SELECT m.id, m.content, m.created_at, m.entered_by, m.expires_at,
GROUP_CONCAT(t.name, ',') as tags,
mf.rank as relevance
FROM memories_fts mf
JOIN memories m ON m.id = mf.rowid
LEFT JOIN memory_tags mt ON m.id = mt.memory_id
LEFT JOIN tags t ON mt.tag_id = t.id
WHERE memories_fts MATCH ?
AND (m.expires_at IS NULL OR m.expires_at > strftime('%s', 'now'))
`;
const params = [ftsQuery];
// Apply filters (same as Phase 1)
// ...
sql += ' GROUP BY m.id ORDER BY mf.rank LIMIT ?';
params.push(limit);
return db.prepare(sql).all(...params);
}
function buildFTS5Query(query) {
// Handle quoted phrases
if (query.includes('"')) {
return query; // Already FTS5 compatible
}
// Handle explicit operators
if (/\b(AND|OR|NOT)\b/i.test(query)) {
return query.toUpperCase();
}
// Implicit AND between terms
const terms = query.split(/\s+/).filter(t => t.length > 0);
return terms.join(' AND ');
}
```
### Phase 3: Fuzzy Search
```javascript
function searchWithFuzzy(query, threshold = 0.7, limit = 10) {
const queryTrigrams = extractTrigrams(query);
if (queryTrigrams.length === 0) return [];
// Find candidates by trigram overlap
const sql = `
SELECT
m.id,
m.content,
m.created_at,
m.entered_by,
m.expires_at,
COUNT(DISTINCT tr.trigram) as trigram_matches
FROM memories m
JOIN trigrams tr ON tr.memory_id = m.id
WHERE tr.trigram IN (${queryTrigrams.map(() => '?').join(',')})
AND (m.expires_at IS NULL OR m.expires_at > strftime('%s', 'now'))
GROUP BY m.id
HAVING trigram_matches >= ?
ORDER BY trigram_matches DESC
LIMIT ?
`;
const minMatches = Math.ceil(queryTrigrams.length * threshold);
const candidates = db.prepare(sql).all(...queryTrigrams, minMatches, limit * 2);
// Calculate edit distance and combined score
const scored = candidates.map(c => {
const editDist = levenshtein(query.toLowerCase(), c.content.toLowerCase().substring(0, query.length * 3));
const trigramSim = c.trigram_matches / queryTrigrams.length;
const normalizedEditDist = 1 - (editDist / Math.max(query.length, c.content.length));
return {
...c,
relevance: 0.6 * trigramSim + 0.4 * normalizedEditDist
};
});
return scored
.filter(r => r.relevance >= threshold)
.sort((a, b) => b.relevance - a.relevance)
.slice(0, limit);
}
function extractTrigrams(text) {
const normalized = text
.toLowerCase()
.replace(/[^\w\s]/g, ' ')
.replace(/\s+/g, ' ')
.trim();
if (normalized.length < 3) return [];
const padded = ` ${normalized} `;
const trigrams = [];
for (let i = 0; i < padded.length - 2; i++) {
const trigram = padded.substring(i, i + 3);
if (trigram.trim().length === 3) {
trigrams.push(trigram);
}
}
return [...new Set(trigrams)]; // Deduplicate
}
function levenshtein(a, b) {
if (a.length === 0) return b.length;
if (b.length === 0) return a.length;
let prevRow = Array(b.length + 1).fill(0).map((_, i) => i);
for (let i = 0; i < a.length; i++) {
let curRow = [i + 1];
for (let j = 0; j < b.length; j++) {
const cost = a[i] === b[j] ? 0 : 1;
curRow.push(Math.min(
curRow[j] + 1, // deletion
prevRow[j + 1] + 1, // insertion
prevRow[j] + cost // substitution
));
}
prevRow = curRow;
}
return prevRow[b.length];
}
```
### Intelligent Cascade
```javascript
function search(query, filters = {}) {
const { fuzzy = 'auto', threshold = 0.7 } = filters;
// Phase 2 or Phase 3 installed?
const hasFTS5 = checkTableExists('memories_fts');
const hasTrigrams = checkTableExists('trigrams');
let results;
// Try FTS5 if available
if (hasFTS5) {
results = searchWithFTS5(query, filters);
} else {
results = searchWithLike(query, filters);
}
// If too few results and fuzzy available, try fuzzy
if (results.length < 5 && hasTrigrams && (fuzzy === 'auto' || fuzzy === true)) {
const fuzzyResults = searchWithFuzzy(query, threshold, filters.limit);
results = mergeResults(results, fuzzyResults);
}
return results;
}
function mergeResults(exact, fuzzy) {
const seen = new Set(exact.map(r => r.id));
const merged = [...exact];
for (const result of fuzzy) {
if (!seen.has(result.id)) {
merged.push(result);
seen.add(result.id);
}
}
return merged;
}
```
## Memory Format Guidelines
### Good Memory Examples
```bash
# Technical discovery with context
memory store "Docker Compose: Use 'depends_on' with 'condition: service_healthy' to ensure dependencies are ready. Prevents race conditions in multi-container apps." \
--tags docker,docker-compose,best-practices
# Configuration pattern
memory store "Nginx reverse proxy: Set 'proxy_set_header X-Real-IP \$remote_addr' to preserve client IP through proxy. Required for rate limiting and logging." \
--tags nginx,networking,security
# Error resolution
memory store "Node.js ENOSPC: Increase inotify watch limit with 'echo fs.inotify.max_user_watches=524288 | sudo tee -a /etc/sysctl.conf && sudo sysctl -p'. Affects webpack, nodemon." \
--tags nodejs,linux,troubleshooting
# Version-specific behavior
memory store "TypeScript 5.0+: 'const' type parameters preserve literal types. Example: 'function id<const T>(x: T): T'. Better inference for generic functions." \
--tags typescript,types
# Temporary info with expiration
memory store "Staging server: https://staging.example.com:8443. Credentials in 1Password. Valid through Q1 2025." \
--tags staging,infrastructure \
--expires "2025-04-01"
```
### Anti-Patterns to Avoid
```bash
# Too vague
❌ memory store "Fixed Docker issue"
✅ memory store "Docker: Use 'docker system prune -a' to reclaim space. Removes unused images, containers, networks."
# Widely known
❌ memory store "Git is a version control system"
✅ memory store "Git worktree: 'git worktree add -b feature ../feature' creates parallel working dir without cloning."
# Sensitive data
❌ memory store "DB password: hunter2"
✅ memory store "Production DB credentials stored in 1Password vault 'Infrastructure'"
# Multiple unrelated facts
❌ memory store "Docker uses namespaces. K8s has pods. Nginx is fast."
✅ memory store "Docker container isolation uses Linux namespaces: PID, NET, MNT, UTS, IPC."
```
## Auto-Extraction: *Remember* Pattern
When agents output text containing `*Remember*: [fact]`, automatically extract and store:
```javascript
function extractRememberPatterns(text, context = {}) {
const rememberRegex = /\*Remember\*:?\s+(.+?)(?=\n\n|\*Remember\*|$)/gis;
const matches = [...text.matchAll(rememberRegex)];
return matches.map(match => {
const content = match[1].trim();
const tags = autoExtractTags(content, context);
const expires = autoExtractExpiration(content);
return {
content,
tags,
expires,
entered_by: context.agentName || 'auto-extract'
};
});
}
function autoExtractTags(content, context) {
const tags = new Set();
// Technology patterns
const techPatterns = {
'docker': /docker|container|compose/i,
'kubernetes': /k8s|kubernetes|kubectl/i,
'git': /\bgit\b|github|gitlab/i,
'nodejs': /node\.?js|npm|yarn/i,
'postgresql': /postgres|postgresql/i,
'nixos': /nix|nixos|flake/i
};
for (const [tag, pattern] of Object.entries(techPatterns)) {
if (pattern.test(content)) tags.add(tag);
}
// Category patterns
if (/error|bug|fix/i.test(content)) tags.add('troubleshooting');
if (/performance|optimize/i.test(content)) tags.add('performance');
if (/security|vulnerability/i.test(content)) tags.add('security');
return Array.from(tags);
}
function autoExtractExpiration(content) {
const patterns = [
{ re: /valid (through|until) (\w+ \d{4})/i, parse: m => new Date(m[2]) },
{ re: /expires? (on )?([\d-]+)/i, parse: m => new Date(m[2]) },
{ re: /temporary|temp/i, parse: () => addDays(new Date(), 90) },
{ re: /Q([1-4]) (\d{4})/i, parse: m => quarterEnd(m[1], m[2]) }
];
for (const { re, parse } of patterns) {
const match = content.match(re);
if (match) {
try {
return parse(match).toISOString();
} catch {}
}
}
return null;
}
```
## Migration Strategy
### Phase 1 → Phase 2 (LIKE → FTS5)
```javascript
async function migrateToFTS5(db) {
console.log('Migrating to FTS5...');
// Create FTS5 table
db.exec(`
CREATE VIRTUAL TABLE memories_fts USING fts5(
content,
content='memories',
content_rowid='id',
tokenize='porter unicode61 remove_diacritics 2'
);
`);
// Populate from existing data
db.exec(`
INSERT INTO memories_fts(rowid, content)
SELECT id, content FROM memories;
`);
// Create triggers
db.exec(`
CREATE TRIGGER memories_ai AFTER INSERT ON memories BEGIN
INSERT INTO memories_fts(rowid, content) VALUES (new.id, new.content);
END;
CREATE TRIGGER memories_ad AFTER DELETE ON memories BEGIN
DELETE FROM memories_fts WHERE rowid = old.id;
END;
CREATE TRIGGER memories_au AFTER UPDATE ON memories BEGIN
DELETE FROM memories_fts WHERE rowid = old.id;
INSERT INTO memories_fts(rowid, content) VALUES (new.id, new.content);
END;
`);
// Update schema version
db.prepare('UPDATE metadata SET value = ? WHERE key = ?').run('2', 'schema_version');
console.log('FTS5 migration complete!');
}
```
### Phase 2 → Phase 3 (Add Trigrams)
```javascript
async function migrateToTrigrams(db) {
console.log('Adding trigram support...');
// Create trigrams table
db.exec(`
CREATE TABLE trigrams (
trigram TEXT NOT NULL,
memory_id INTEGER NOT NULL,
position INTEGER NOT NULL,
FOREIGN KEY (memory_id) REFERENCES memories(id) ON DELETE CASCADE
);
CREATE INDEX idx_trigrams_trigram ON trigrams(trigram);
CREATE INDEX idx_trigrams_memory ON trigrams(memory_id);
`);
// Populate from existing memories
const memories = db.prepare('SELECT id, content FROM memories').all();
const insertTrigram = db.prepare('INSERT INTO trigrams (trigram, memory_id, position) VALUES (?, ?, ?)');
const insertMany = db.transaction((memories) => {
for (const memory of memories) {
const trigrams = extractTrigrams(memory.content);
trigrams.forEach((trigram, position) => {
insertTrigram.run(trigram, memory.id, position);
});
}
});
insertMany(memories);
// Update schema version
db.prepare('UPDATE metadata SET value = ? WHERE key = ?').run('3', 'schema_version');
console.log('Trigram migration complete!');
}
```

}
};
```
### Usage from Other Plugins
```javascript
import llmemory from '@opencode/llmemory';
// Store a memory
await llmemory.api.store(
'NixOS: flake.lock must be committed for reproducible builds',
{ tags: ['nixos', 'build-system'], entered_by: 'investigate-agent' }
);
// Search
const results = await llmemory.api.search('nixos builds', {
tags: ['nixos'],
limit: 5
});
// Auto-extract from agent output
const memories = await llmemory.api.extractRemember(agentOutput, {
agentName: 'optimize-agent',
currentTask: 'performance-tuning'
});
```

# LLMemory Architecture
## System Overview
LLMemory is a three-layer system:
1. **CLI Layer** - User/agent interface (Commander.js)
2. **Search Layer** - Query processing and ranking (LIKE → FTS5 → Fuzzy)
3. **Storage Layer** - Persistent data (SQLite)
```
┌─────────────────────────────────────┐
│ CLI Layer │
│ (memory store/search/list/prune) │
└──────────────┬──────────────────────┘
┌──────────────▼──────────────────────┐
│ Search Layer │
│ Phase 1: LIKE search │
│ Phase 2: FTS5 + BM25 ranking │
│ Phase 3: + Trigram fuzzy matching │
└──────────────┬──────────────────────┘
┌──────────────▼──────────────────────┐
│ Storage Layer │
│ SQLite Database │
│ - memories (content, metadata) │
│ - tags (normalized) │
│ - memory_tags (many-to-many) │
│ - memories_fts (FTS5 virtual) │
│ - trigrams (fuzzy index) │
└─────────────────────────────────────┘
```
## Data Model
### Phase 1 Schema (MVP)
```
┌─────────────────┐
│ memories │
├─────────────────┤
│ id │ PK
│ content │ TEXT (max 10KB)
│ created_at │ INTEGER (Unix timestamp)
│ entered_by │ TEXT (agent name)
│ expires_at │ INTEGER (nullable)
└─────────────────┘
│ 1:N
┌─────────────────┐ ┌─────────────────┐
│ memory_tags │ N:M │ tags │
├─────────────────┤ ├─────────────────┤
│ memory_id │ FK ───│ id │ PK
│ tag_id │ FK │ name │ TEXT (unique, NOCASE)
└─────────────────┘ │ created_at │ INTEGER
└─────────────────┘
```
### Phase 2 Schema (+ FTS5)
Adds virtual table for full-text search:
```
┌─────────────────────┐
│ memories_fts │ Virtual Table (FTS5)
├─────────────────────┤
│ rowid → memories.id │
│ content (indexed) │
└─────────────────────┘
│ Synced via triggers
┌─────────────────┐
│ memories │
└─────────────────┘
```
**Triggers:**
- `memories_ai`: INSERT into memories → INSERT into memories_fts
- `memories_au`: UPDATE memories → UPDATE memories_fts
- `memories_ad`: DELETE memories → DELETE from memories_fts
### Phase 3 Schema (+ Trigrams)
Adds trigram index for fuzzy matching:
```
┌─────────────────┐
│ trigrams │
├─────────────────┤
│ trigram │ TEXT (3 chars)
│ memory_id │ FK → memories.id
│ position │ INTEGER (for proximity)
└─────────────────┘
│ Generated on insert/update
┌─────────────────┐
│ memories │
└─────────────────┘
```
## Search Algorithm Evolution
### Phase 1: LIKE Search
**Algorithm:**
```python
function search_like(query, filters):
# Case-insensitive wildcard matching
sql = "SELECT * FROM memories WHERE LOWER(content) LIKE LOWER('%' || ? || '%')"
# Apply filters
if filters.tags:
sql += " AND memory_id IN (SELECT memory_id FROM memory_tags WHERE tag_id IN (...))"
if filters.after:
sql += " AND created_at >= ?"
# Exclude expired
sql += " AND (expires_at IS NULL OR expires_at > now())"
# Order by recency
sql += " ORDER BY created_at DESC LIMIT ?"
return execute(sql, params)
```
**Strengths:**
- Simple, fast for small datasets
- No dependencies
- Predictable behavior
**Weaknesses:**
- No relevance ranking
- Slow for large datasets (full table scan)
- No fuzzy matching
- No phrase queries or boolean logic
**Performance:** O(n) where n = number of memories
**Target:** <50ms for <500 memories
---
### Phase 2: FTS5 Search
**Algorithm:**
```python
function search_fts5(query, filters):
# Build FTS5 query
fts_query = build_fts5_query(query) # Handles AND/OR/NOT, quotes, prefixes
# FTS5 MATCH with BM25 ranking
sql = """
SELECT m.*, mf.rank as relevance
FROM memories_fts mf
JOIN memories m ON m.id = mf.rowid
WHERE memories_fts MATCH ?
AND (m.expires_at IS NULL OR m.expires_at > now())
"""
# Apply filters (same as Phase 1)
# ...
# Order by FTS5 rank (BM25 algorithm)
sql += " ORDER BY mf.rank LIMIT ?"
return execute(sql, params)
function build_fts5_query(query):
# Transform grep-like to FTS5
# "docker compose" → "docker AND compose"
# "docker OR podman" → "docker OR podman" (unchanged)
# '"exact phrase"' → '"exact phrase"' (unchanged)
# "docker*" → "docker*" (unchanged)
if has_operators(query):
return query
# Implicit AND
terms = query.split()
return " AND ".join(terms)
```
**FTS5 Tokenization:**
- **Tokenizer:** `porter unicode61 remove_diacritics 2`
- **Porter:** Stemming (running → run, databases → database)
- **unicode61:** Unicode support
- **remove_diacritics:** Normalize accented characters (café → cafe)
**BM25 Ranking:**
```
score = Σ(IDF(term) * (f(term) * (k1 + 1)) / (f(term) + k1 * (1 - b + b * |D| / avgdl)))
Where:
- IDF(term) = Inverse Document Frequency (rarer terms score higher)
- f(term) = Term frequency in document
- |D| = Document length
- avgdl = Average document length
- k1 = 1.2 (term frequency saturation)
- b = 0.75 (length normalization)
```
**Strengths:**
- Fast search with inverted index
- Relevance ranking (BM25)
- Boolean operators, phrase queries, prefix matching
- Scales to 100K+ documents
**Weaknesses:**
- No fuzzy matching (typo tolerance)
- FTS5 index overhead (~30% storage)
- More complex setup (triggers needed)
**Performance:** O(log n) for index lookup
**Target:** <100ms for 10K memories
---
### Phase 3: Fuzzy Search
**Algorithm:**
```python
function search_fuzzy(query, filters):
# Step 1: Try FTS5 exact match
results = search_fts5(query, filters)
# Step 2: If too few results, try fuzzy
if len(results) < 5 and filters.fuzzy != false:
fuzzy_results = search_trigram(query, filters)
results = merge_dedup(results, fuzzy_results)
# Step 3: Re-rank by combined score
for result in results:
result.score = calculate_combined_score(result, query)
results.sort(by=lambda r: r.score, reverse=True)
return results[:filters.limit]
function search_trigram(query, threshold=0.7, limit=10):
# Extract query trigrams
query_trigrams = extract_trigrams(query) # ["doc", "ock", "cke", "ker"]
# Find candidates by trigram overlap
sql = """
SELECT m.id, m.content, COUNT(DISTINCT tr.trigram) as matches
FROM memories m
JOIN trigrams tr ON tr.memory_id = m.id
WHERE tr.trigram IN (?, ?, ?, ...)
AND (m.expires_at IS NULL OR m.expires_at > now())
GROUP BY m.id
HAVING matches >= ?
ORDER BY matches DESC
LIMIT ?
"""
min_matches = ceil(len(query_trigrams) * threshold)
candidates = execute(sql, query_trigrams, min_matches, limit * 2)
# Calculate edit distance and combined score
scored = []
for candidate in candidates:
edit_dist = levenshtein(query, candidate.content[:len(query)*3])
trigram_sim = candidate.matches / len(query_trigrams)
normalized_edit = 1 - (edit_dist / max(len(query), len(candidate.content)))
score = 0.6 * trigram_sim + 0.4 * normalized_edit
if score >= threshold:
scored.append((candidate, score))
scored.sort(by=lambda x: x[1], reverse=True)
return [c for c, s in scored[:limit]]
function extract_trigrams(text):
# Normalize: lowercase, remove punctuation, collapse whitespace
normalized = text.lower().replace(/[^\w\s]/g, ' ').replace(/\s+/g, ' ').trim()
# Add padding for boundary matching
padded = " " + normalized + " "
# Sliding window of 3 characters
trigrams = []
for i in range(len(padded) - 2):
trigram = padded[i:i+3]
if trigram.strip().len() == 3: # Skip whitespace-only
trigrams.append(trigram)
return unique(trigrams)
function levenshtein(a, b):
# Wagner-Fischer algorithm with single-row optimization
if len(a) == 0: return len(b)
if len(b) == 0: return len(a)
prev_row = [0..len(b)]
for i in range(len(a)):
cur_row = [i + 1]
for j in range(len(b)):
cost = 0 if a[i] == b[j] else 1
cur_row.append(min(
cur_row[j] + 1, # deletion
prev_row[j + 1] + 1, # insertion
prev_row[j] + cost # substitution
))
prev_row = cur_row
return prev_row[len(b)]
function calculate_combined_score(result, query):
# BM25 from FTS5 (if available)
bm25_score = result.fts_rank if result.has_fts_rank else 0
# Trigram similarity
trigram_score = result.trigram_matches / len(extract_trigrams(query))
# Edit distance (normalized)
edit_dist = levenshtein(query, result.content[:len(query)*3])
edit_score = 1 - (edit_dist / max(len(query), len(result.content)))
# Recency boost (exponential decay over 90 days)
days_ago = (now() - result.created_at) / 86400
recency_score = max(0, 1 - (days_ago / 90))
# Weighted combination
score = (0.4 * bm25_score +
0.3 * trigram_score +
0.2 * edit_score +
0.1 * recency_score)
return score
```
**Trigram Similarity (Jaccard Index):**
```
similarity = |trigrams(query) ∩ trigrams(document)| / |trigrams(query)|
Example:
query = "docker" → trigrams: ["doc", "ock", "cke", "ker"]
document = "dcoker" → trigrams: ["dco", "cok", "oke", "ker"]
intersection = ["ker"] → count = 1
similarity = 1 / 4 = 0.25 (below threshold, but edit distance is 2)
Better approach: Edit distance normalized by length
edit_distance("docker", "dcoker") = 2
normalized = 1 - (2 / 6) = 0.67 (above threshold 0.6)
```
**Strengths:**
- Handles typos (edit distance ≤2)
- Partial matches ("docker" finds "dockerization")
- Cascading strategy (fast exact, fallback to fuzzy)
- Configurable threshold
**Weaknesses:**
- Trigram table is large (~3x content size)
- Slower than FTS5 alone
- Tuning threshold requires experimentation
**Performance:** O(log n) + O(m) where m = trigram candidates
**Target:** <200ms for 10K memories with fuzzy

```
## Query Processing Flow
### Phase 1 (LIKE)
```
User Query: "docker networking"
Parse Query: Extract terms, filters
Build SQL: LIKE '%docker%' AND LIKE '%networking%'
Apply Filters: Tags, dates, agent
Execute: Sequential scan through memories
Order: By created_at DESC
Limit: Take top N results
Format: Plain text / JSON / Markdown
```
### Phase 2 (FTS5)
```
User Query: "docker AND networking"
Parse Query: Identify operators, quotes, prefixes
Build FTS5 Query: "docker AND networking" (already valid)
FTS5 MATCH: Inverted index lookup
BM25 Ranking: Calculate relevance scores
Apply Filters: Tags, dates, agent (on results)
Order: By rank (BM25 score)
Limit: Take top N results
Format: With relevance scores
```
### Phase 3 (Fuzzy)
```
User Query: "dokcer networking"
Try FTS5: "dokcer AND networking"
Results: 0 (no exact match)
Trigger Fuzzy: Extract trigrams
├─▶ "dokcer" → ["dok", "okc", "kce", "cer"]
└─▶ "networking" → ["net", "etw", "two", ...]
Find Candidates: Query trigrams table
Calculate Similarity: Trigram overlap + edit distance
├─▶ "docker" → similarity = 0.85 (good match)
└─▶ "networking" → similarity = 1.0 (exact)
Filter: Threshold ≥ 0.7
Re-rank: Combined score (trigram + edit + recency)
Merge: With FTS5 results (dedup by ID)
Limit: Take top N results
Format: With relevance scores
```
## Indexing Strategy
### Phase 1 Indexes
```sql
-- Recency queries (ORDER BY created_at DESC)
CREATE INDEX idx_memories_created ON memories(created_at DESC);
-- Expiration filtering (WHERE expires_at > now())
CREATE INDEX idx_memories_expires ON memories(expires_at)
WHERE expires_at IS NOT NULL;
-- Tag lookups (JOIN on tag_id)
CREATE INDEX idx_tags_name ON tags(name);
-- Tag filtering (JOIN memory_tags on memory_id)
CREATE INDEX idx_memory_tags_tag ON memory_tags(tag_id);
```
**Query plans:**
```sql
-- Search query uses indexes:
EXPLAIN QUERY PLAN
SELECT * FROM memories WHERE created_at > ? ORDER BY created_at DESC;
-- Result: SEARCH memories USING INDEX idx_memories_created
EXPLAIN QUERY PLAN
SELECT * FROM memories WHERE expires_at > strftime('%s', 'now');
-- Result: SEARCH memories USING INDEX idx_memories_expires
```
### Phase 2 Indexes (+ FTS5)
```sql
-- FTS5 creates inverted index automatically
CREATE VIRTUAL TABLE memories_fts USING fts5(content, ...);
-- Generates internal tables: memories_fts_data, memories_fts_idx, memories_fts_config
```
**FTS5 Index Structure:**
```
Term → Document Postings List
"docker" → [1, 5, 12, 34, 56, ...]
"compose" → [5, 12, 89, ...]
"networking" → [5, 34, 67, ...]
Query "docker AND compose" → intersection([1,5,12,34,56], [5,12,89]) = [5, 12]
```
### Phase 3 Indexes (+ Trigrams)
```sql
-- Trigram lookups (WHERE trigram IN (...))
CREATE INDEX idx_trigrams_trigram ON trigrams(trigram);
-- Cleanup on memory deletion (CASCADE via memory_id)
CREATE INDEX idx_trigrams_memory ON trigrams(memory_id);
```
**Trigram Index Structure:**
```
Trigram → Memory IDs
"doc" → [1, 5, 12, 34, ...] (all memories with "doc")
"ock" → [1, 5, 12, 34, ...] (all memories with "ock")
"cke" → [1, 5, 12, ...] (all memories with "cke")
Query "docker" trigrams ["doc", "ock", "cke", "ker"]
→ Find intersection: memories with all 4 trigrams (or ≥ threshold)
```
## Performance Optimization
### Database Configuration
```sql
-- WAL mode for better concurrency
PRAGMA journal_mode = WAL;
-- Memory-mapped I/O for faster reads
PRAGMA mmap_size = 268435456; -- 256MB
-- Larger cache for better performance
PRAGMA cache_size = -64000; -- 64MB (negative = KB)
-- Synchronous writes (balance between speed and durability)
PRAGMA synchronous = NORMAL; -- Not FULL (too slow), not OFF (unsafe)
-- Auto-vacuum to prevent bloat
PRAGMA auto_vacuum = INCREMENTAL;
```
### Query Optimization
```javascript
// Use prepared statements (compiled once, executed many times)
const searchStmt = db.prepare(`
SELECT * FROM memories
WHERE LOWER(content) LIKE LOWER(?)
ORDER BY created_at DESC
LIMIT ?
`);
// Transaction for bulk inserts
const insertMany = db.transaction((memories) => {
for (const memory of memories) {
insertStmt.run(memory);
}
});
```
### Trigram Pruning
```javascript
// Prune common trigrams (low information value)
// E.g., "the", "and", "ing" appear in most memories
const pruneCommonTrigrams = db.prepare(`
DELETE FROM trigrams
WHERE trigram IN (
SELECT trigram FROM trigrams
GROUP BY trigram
HAVING COUNT(*) > (SELECT COUNT(*) * 0.5 FROM memories)
)
`);
// Run after bulk imports
pruneCommonTrigrams.run();
```
### Result Caching
```javascript
// LRU cache for frequent queries
const LRU = require('lru-cache');
const queryCache = new LRU({
max: 100, // Cache 100 queries
ttl: 1000 * 60 * 5 // 5 minute TTL
});
function search(query, filters) {
const cacheKey = JSON.stringify({ query, filters });
if (queryCache.has(cacheKey)) {
return queryCache.get(cacheKey);
}
const results = executeSearch(query, filters);
queryCache.set(cacheKey, results);
return results;
}
```
## Error Handling
### Database Errors
```javascript
try {
db.prepare(sql).run(params);
} catch (error) {
if (error.code === 'SQLITE_BUSY') {
// Retry after backoff
await sleep(100);
return retry(operation, maxRetries - 1);
}
if (error.code === 'SQLITE_CONSTRAINT') {
// Validation error (content too long, duplicate tag, etc.)
throw new ValidationError(error.message);
}
if (error.code === 'SQLITE_CORRUPT') {
// Database corruption - suggest recovery
throw new DatabaseCorruptError('Database corrupted, run: memory recover');
}
// Unknown error
throw error;
}
```
### Migration Errors
```javascript
async function migrate(targetVersion) {
const currentVersion = getCurrentSchemaVersion();
// Backup before migration
await backupDatabase(`backup-v${currentVersion}.db`);
try {
db.exec('BEGIN TRANSACTION');
// Run migrations
for (let v = currentVersion + 1; v <= targetVersion; v++) {
await runMigration(v);
}
db.exec('COMMIT');
console.log(`Migrated to version ${targetVersion}`);
} catch (error) {
db.exec('ROLLBACK');
console.error('Migration failed, rolling back');
// Restore backup
await restoreDatabase(`backup-v${currentVersion}.db`);
throw error;
}
}
```
## Security Considerations
### Input Validation
```javascript
// Prevent SQL injection (prepared statements)
const stmt = db.prepare('SELECT * FROM memories WHERE content LIKE ?');
stmt.all(`%${userInput}%`); // Safe: userInput is parameterized
// Validate content length
if (content.length > 10000) {
throw new ValidationError('Content exceeds 10KB limit');
}
// Sanitize tags (only alphanumeric, hyphens, underscores)
const sanitizeTag = (tag) => tag.replace(/[^a-z0-9\-_]/gi, '');
```
### Sensitive Data Protection
```javascript
// Warn if sensitive patterns detected
const sensitivePatterns = [
/password\s*[:=]\s*\S+/i,
/api[_-]?key\s*[:=]\s*\S+/i,
/token\s*[:=]\s*\S+/i,
/secret\s*[:=]\s*\S+/i
];
function checkSensitiveData(content) {
for (const pattern of sensitivePatterns) {
if (pattern.test(content)) {
console.warn('⚠️ Warning: Potential sensitive data detected');
console.warn('Consider storing credentials in a secure vault instead');
return true;
}
}
return false;
}
```
### File Permissions
```bash
# Database file should be user-readable only
chmod 600 ~/.config/opencode/memories.db
# Backup files should have same permissions
chmod 600 ~/.config/opencode/memories-backup-*.db
```
## Scalability Limits
### Phase 1 (LIKE)
- **Max memories:** ~500 (performance degrades beyond)
- **Query latency:** O(n) - linear scan
- **Storage:** ~250KB for 500 memories
### Phase 2 (FTS5)
- **Max memories:** ~50K (comfortable), 100K+ (possible)
- **Query latency:** O(log n) - index lookup
- **Storage:** +30% for FTS5 index (~325KB for 500 memories)
### Phase 3 (Fuzzy)
- **Max memories:** 100K+ (with trigram pruning)
- **Query latency:** O(log n) + O(m) where m = fuzzy candidates
- **Storage:** +200% for trigrams (~750KB for 500 memories)
- Mitigated by pruning common trigrams
### Migration Triggers
**Phase 1 → Phase 2:**
- Dataset > 500 memories
- Query latency > 500ms
- Manual user request
**Phase 2 → Phase 3:**
- User reports needing fuzzy search
- High typo rates in queries
- Manual user request
## Future Enhancements
### Vector Embeddings (Phase 4?)
- Semantic search ("docker" → "containerization")
- Requires embedding model (~100MB)
- SQLite-VSS extension
- Hybrid: BM25 (lexical) + Cosine similarity (semantic)
### Automatic Summarization
- LLM-generated summaries for long memories
- Reduces token usage in search results
- Trade-off: API dependency
### Memory Versioning
- Track edits to memories
- Show history
- Revert to previous version
### Conflict Detection
- Identify contradictory memories
- Suggest consolidation
- Flag for review
### Collaborative Features
- Share memories between agents
- Team-wide memory pool
- Privacy controls

**Tests:** 9/9 passing (in integration tests)
- Full workflow (store → search → list → prune)
- Performance (<50ms for 100 memories)
- <1 second to store 100 memories
- Edge cases (empty query, special chars, unicode, long tags)
## Test Summary
```
✓ Database Layer (13 tests)
✓ Schema Initialization (7 tests)
✓ Connection Management (6 tests)
✓ Store Command (8 tests)
✓ Basic storage with tags
✓ Validation (10KB limit, empty content, future expiration)
✓ Tag handling (normalization, deduplication)
✓ Search Command (9 tests)
✓ Content search (case-insensitive)
✓ Filtering (tags AND/OR, dates, agent)
✓ Automatic expiration exclusion
✓ Sorting and pagination
✓ Integration Tests (9 tests)
✓ Full workflows (store → search → list → prune)
✓ Performance targets met
✓ Edge cases handled
Total: 39/39 tests passing (100%)
Duration: ~100ms
```
## Performance Results
**Phase 1 Targets:**
- ✅ Search 100 memories: <50ms (actual: ~20-30ms)
- ✅ Store 100 memories: <1000ms (actual: ~200-400ms)
- ✅ Database size: Minimal with indexes
## TDD Approach Validation
**Workflow:**
1. ✅ Wrote tests first (.todo() → real tests)
2. ✅ Watched tests fail (red)
3. ✅ Implemented features
4. ✅ Watched tests pass (green)
5. ✅ Refactored based on failures
**Benefits Observed:**
- Caught CHECK constraint issues immediately
- Found validation edge cases early
- Performance testing built-in from start
- Clear success criteria for each feature
## Known Limitations & Notes
### WAL Mode in :memory: Databases
- In-memory SQLite returns 'memory' instead of 'wal' for journal_mode
- This is expected behavior and doesn't affect functionality
- File-based databases will correctly use WAL mode
### Check Constraints
- Schema enforces `expires_at > created_at`
- Tests work around this by setting both timestamps
- Real usage won't hit this (expires always in future)
## What's NOT Implemented (Future Phases)
### Phase 2 (FTS5)
- [ ] FTS5 virtual table
- [ ] BM25 relevance ranking
- [ ] Boolean operators (AND/OR/NOT in query syntax)
- [ ] Phrase queries with quotes
- [ ] Migration script
### Phase 3 (Fuzzy)
- [ ] Trigram indexing
- [ ] Levenshtein distance
- [ ] Intelligent cascade (exact → fuzzy)
- [ ] Combined relevance scoring
### CLI Integration
- [x] Connect CLI to commands (src/cli.js fully wired)
- [x] Output formatting (plain text, JSON, markdown)
- [x] Colors with chalk
- [x] Global installation (bin/memory shim)
- [x] OpenCode plugin integration (plugin/llmemory.js)
### Additional Features
- [x] Stats command (with --tags and --agents options)
- [x] Agent context documentation (--agent-context)
- [ ] Export/import commands (Phase 2)
- [ ] Auto-extraction (*Remember* pattern) (Phase 2)
## Next Steps
### Immediate (Complete MVP)
1. **Wire up CLI to commands** (Step 1.7)
- Replace placeholder commands with real implementations
- Add output formatting
- Test end-to-end CLI workflow
2. **Manual Testing**
```bash
node src/cli.js store "Docker uses bridge networks" --tags docker
node src/cli.js search "docker"
node src/cli.js list --limit 5
```
### Future Phases
- Phase 2: FTS5 when dataset > 500 memories
- Phase 3: Fuzzy when typo tolerance needed
- OpenCode plugin integration
- Agent documentation

# TDD Testing Philosophy - Added to LLMemory
## What Was Updated
### 1. Updated IMPLEMENTATION_PLAN.md
- ✅ Rewrote testing strategy section with integration-first philosophy
- ✅ Added TDD workflow to Steps 1.3 (Store) and 1.4 (Search)
- ✅ Each step now has "write test first" as explicit requirement
- ✅ Test code examples included before implementation examples
### 2. Updated AGENTS.md
- ⚠️ File doesn't exist in opencode root, skipped
- Created TESTING.md instead with full testing guide
### 3. Created docs/TESTING.md
- ✅ Comprehensive testing philosophy document
- ✅ TDD workflow with detailed examples
- ✅ Integration-first approach explained
- ✅ When to write unit tests (rarely!)
- ✅ Realistic data seeding strategies
- ✅ Watch-driven development workflow
- ✅ Good vs bad test examples
### 4. Created test/integration.test.js
- ✅ Test structure scaffolded with `.todo()` markers
- ✅ Shows TDD structure before implementation
- ✅ Database layer tests
- ✅ Store command tests
- ✅ Search command tests
- ✅ Performance tests
- ✅ Edge case tests
### 5. Simplified Dependencies
- ⚠️ Removed `better-sqlite3` temporarily (build issues on NixOS)
- ✅ Installed: commander, chalk, date-fns, vitest
- ✅ Tests run successfully (all `.todo()` so pass by default)
## Current Status
**Tests Setup:** ✅ Complete
```bash
npm test # Runs all tests (currently 0 real tests, 30+ .todo())
npm run test:watch # Watch mode for TDD workflow
```
**Next Steps (TDD Approach):**
1. **Install better-sqlite3** (need native build tools)
```bash
# On NixOS, may need: nix-shell -p gcc gnumake python3
npm install better-sqlite3
```
2. **Write First Real Test** (database schema)
```javascript
test('creates memories table with correct schema', () => {
const db = new Database(':memory:');
initSchema(db);
const tables = db.prepare("SELECT name FROM sqlite_master WHERE type='table'").all();
expect(tables.map(t => t.name)).toContain('memories');
});
```
3. **Watch Test Fail** (`npm run test:watch`)
4. **Implement** (src/db/schema.js)
5. **Watch Test Pass**
6. **Move to Next Test**
## TDD Philosophy Summary
**DO:**
- ✅ Write integration tests first
- ✅ Use realistic data (50-100 memories)
- ✅ Test with `:memory:` or temp file database
- ✅ Run in watch mode
- ✅ See test fail → implement → see test pass
**DON'T:**
- ❌ Write unit tests for simple functions
- ❌ Test implementation details
- ❌ Use toy data (1-2 memories)
- ❌ Mock the database (test the real thing)
## Build Issue Note
`better-sqlite3` requires native compilation. On NixOS:
```bash
# Option 1: Use nix-shell
nix-shell -p gcc gnumake python3
npm install better-sqlite3
# Option 2: Use in-memory mock for testing
# Implement with native SQLite later
```
This is documented in test/integration.test.js comments.
## Next Session Reminder
Start with: `/home/nate/nixos/shared/linked-dotfiles/opencode/llmemory/`
1. Fix better-sqlite3 installation
2. Remove `.todo()` from first test
3. Watch it fail
4. Implement schema.js
5. Watch it pass
6. Continue with TDD approach
All tests are scaffolded and ready!

# LLMemory Testing Guide
## Testing Philosophy: Integration-First TDD
This project uses **integration-first TDD** - we write integration tests that verify real workflows, not unit tests that verify implementation details.
## Core Principles
### 1. Integration Tests Are Primary
**Why:**
- Tests real behavior users/agents will experience
- Less brittle (survives refactoring)
- Higher confidence in system working correctly
- Catches integration issues early
**Example:**
```javascript
// GOOD: Integration test
test('store and search workflow', () => {
// Test the actual workflow
storeMemory(db, { content: 'Docker uses bridge networks', tags: 'docker' });
const results = searchMemories(db, 'docker');
expect(results[0].content).toContain('Docker');
});
// AVOID: Over-testing implementation details
test('parseContent returns trimmed string', () => {
expect(parseContent(' test ')).toBe('test');
});
// ^ This is probably already tested by integration tests
```
### 2. Unit Tests Are Rare
**Only write unit tests for:**
- Complex algorithms (Levenshtein distance, trigram extraction)
- Pure functions with many edge cases
- Critical validation logic
**Don't write unit tests for:**
- Database queries (test via integration)
- CLI argument parsing (test via integration)
- Simple utilities (tag parsing, date formatting)
- Anything already covered by integration tests
**Rule of thumb:** Think twice before writing a unit test. Ask: "Is this already tested by my integration tests?"
### 3. Test With Realistic Data
**Use real SQLite databases:**
```javascript
beforeEach(() => {
db = new Database(':memory:'); // Fast, isolated
initSchema(db);
// Seed with realistic data
seedDatabase(db, 50); // 50 realistic memories
});
```
**Generate realistic test data:**
```javascript
// test/helpers/seed.js
export function generateRealisticMemory() {
const templates = [
{ content: 'Docker Compose requires explicit subnet config', tags: ['docker', 'networking'] },
{ content: 'PostgreSQL VACUUM FULL locks tables', tags: ['postgresql', 'performance'] },
{ content: 'Git worktree allows parallel branches', tags: ['git', 'workflow'] },
// 50+ realistic templates
];
return randomChoice(templates);
}
```
**Why:** Tests should reflect real usage, not artificial toy data.
### 4. Watch-Driven Development
**Workflow:**
```bash
# Terminal 1: Watch mode (always running)
npm run test:watch
# Terminal 2: Manual testing
node src/cli.js store "test memory"
```
**Steps:**
1. Write integration test (red/failing)
2. Watch test fail
3. Implement feature
4. Watch test pass (green)
5. Verify manually with CLI
6. Refine based on output
## TDD Workflow Example
### Example: Implementing Store Command
**Step 1: Write Test First**
```javascript
// test/integration.test.js
describe('Store Command', () => {
let db;
beforeEach(() => {
db = new Database(':memory:');
initSchema(db);
});
test('stores memory with tags', () => {
const result = storeMemory(db, {
content: 'Docker uses bridge networks',
tags: 'docker,networking'
});
expect(result.id).toBeDefined();
// Verify in database
const memory = db.prepare('SELECT * FROM memories WHERE id = ?').get(result.id);
expect(memory.content).toBe('Docker uses bridge networks');
// Verify tags linked correctly
const tags = db.prepare(`
SELECT t.name FROM tags t
JOIN memory_tags mt ON t.id = mt.tag_id
WHERE mt.memory_id = ?
`).all(result.id);
expect(tags.map(t => t.name)).toEqual(['docker', 'networking']);
});
test('rejects content over 10KB', () => {
expect(() => {
storeMemory(db, { content: 'x'.repeat(10001) });
}).toThrow('Content exceeds 10KB limit');
});
});
```
**Step 2: Run Test (Watch It Fail)**
```bash
$ npm run test:watch
FAIL test/integration.test.js
Store Command
✕ stores memory with tags (2 ms)
✕ rejects content over 10KB (1 ms)
● Store Command stores memory with tags
ReferenceError: storeMemory is not defined
```
**Step 3: Implement Feature**
```javascript
// src/commands/store.js
export function storeMemory(db, { content, tags, expires, entered_by }) {
// Validate content
if (content.length > 10000) {
throw new Error('Content exceeds 10KB limit');
}
// Insert memory
const result = db.prepare(`
INSERT INTO memories (content, entered_by, expires_at)
VALUES (?, ?, ?)
`).run(content, entered_by, expires);
// Handle tags
if (tags) {
const tagList = tags.split(',').map(t => t.trim().toLowerCase());
linkTags(db, result.lastInsertRowid, tagList);
}
return { id: result.lastInsertRowid };
}
```
**Step 4: Watch Test Pass**
```bash
PASS test/integration.test.js
Store Command
✓ stores memory with tags (15 ms)
✓ rejects content over 10KB (3 ms)
Tests: 2 passed, 2 total
```
**Step 5: Verify Manually**
```bash
$ node src/cli.js store "Docker uses bridge networks" --tags docker,networking
Memory #1 stored successfully
$ node src/cli.js search "docker"
[2025-10-29 12:45] docker, networking
Docker uses bridge networks
```
**Step 6: Refine**
```javascript
// Add more test cases based on manual testing
test('normalizes tags to lowercase', () => {
storeMemory(db, { content: 'test', tags: 'Docker,NETWORKING' });
const tags = db.prepare('SELECT name FROM tags').all();
expect(tags).toEqual([
{ name: 'docker' },
{ name: 'networking' }
]);
});
```

expect(levenshtein('kubernetes', 'kuberntes')).toBe(2);
expect(levenshtein('same', 'same')).toBe(0);
});
test('handles edge cases', () => {
expect(levenshtein('', 'hello')).toBe(5);
expect(levenshtein('a', '')).toBe(1);
expect(levenshtein('', '')).toBe(0);
});
test('handles unicode correctly', () => {
expect(levenshtein('café', 'cafe')).toBe(1);
});
});
```
## Test Data Helpers
### Realistic Memory Generation
```javascript
// test/helpers/seed.js
const REALISTIC_MEMORIES = [
{ content: 'Docker Compose uses bridge networks by default. Custom networks require explicit subnet config.', tags: ['docker', 'networking'] },
{ content: 'PostgreSQL VACUUM FULL locks tables and requires 2x disk space. Use VACUUM ANALYZE for production.', tags: ['postgresql', 'performance'] },
{ content: 'Git worktree allows working on multiple branches without stashing. Use: git worktree add ../branch branch-name', tags: ['git', 'workflow'] },
{ content: 'NixOS flake.lock must be committed to git for reproducible builds across machines', tags: ['nixos', 'build-system'] },
{ content: 'TypeScript 5.0+ const type parameters preserve literal types: function id<const T>(x: T): T', tags: ['typescript', 'types'] },
// ... 50+ more realistic examples
];
export function generateRealisticMemory() {
return { ...randomChoice(REALISTIC_MEMORIES) };
}
export function seedDatabase(db, count = 50) {
const insert = db.prepare(`
INSERT INTO memories (content, entered_by, created_at)
VALUES (?, ?, ?)
`);
const insertMany = db.transaction((memories) => {
for (const memory of memories) {
const result = insert.run(
memory.content,
randomChoice(['investigate-agent', 'optimize-agent', 'manual']),
Date.now() - randomInt(0, 90 * 86400000) // Random within 90 days
);
// Link tags
if (memory.tags) {
linkTags(db, result.lastInsertRowid, memory.tags);
}
}
});
const memories = Array.from({ length: count }, () => generateRealisticMemory());
insertMany(memories);
}
function randomChoice(arr) {
return arr[Math.floor(Math.random() * arr.length)];
}
function randomInt(min, max) {
return Math.floor(Math.random() * (max - min + 1)) + min;
}
```
## Running Tests
```bash
# Watch mode (primary workflow)
npm run test:watch
# Run once
npm test
# With coverage
npm run test:coverage
# Specific test file
npm test integration.test.js
# Run in CI (no watch)
npm test -- --run
```
## Coverage Guidelines
**Target: >80% coverage, but favor integration over unit**
**What to measure:**
- Are all major workflows tested? (store, search, list, prune)
- Are edge cases covered? (empty data, expired memories, invalid input)
- Are performance targets met? (<50ms search for Phase 1)
**What NOT to obsess over:**
- 100% line coverage (diminishing returns)
- Testing every internal function (if covered by integration tests)
- Testing framework code (CLI parsing, DB driver)
**Check coverage:**
```bash
npm run test:coverage
# View HTML report
open coverage/index.html
```
## Examples of Good vs Bad Tests
### ✅ Good: Integration Test
```javascript
test('full workflow: store, search, list, prune', () => {
// Store memories
storeMemory(db, { content: 'Memory 1', tags: 'test' });
storeMemory(db, { content: 'Memory 2', tags: 'test', expires_at: Date.now() - 1000 });
// Search finds active memory
const results = searchMemories(db, 'Memory');
expect(results).toHaveLength(2); // Both found initially
// List shows both
const all = listMemories(db);
expect(all).toHaveLength(2);
// Prune removes expired
const pruned = pruneMemories(db);
expect(pruned.count).toBe(1);
// Search now finds only active
const afterPrune = searchMemories(db, 'Memory');
expect(afterPrune).toHaveLength(1);
});
```
### ❌ Bad: Over-Testing Implementation
```javascript
// AVOID: Testing internal implementation details
test('parseTagString splits on comma', () => {
expect(parseTagString('a,b,c')).toEqual(['a', 'b', 'c']);
});
test('normalizeTag converts to lowercase', () => {
expect(normalizeTag('Docker')).toBe('docker');
});
// These are implementation details already covered by integration tests!
```
### ✅ Good: Unit Test (Justified)
```javascript
// Complex algorithm worth isolated testing
test('levenshtein distance edge cases', () => {
// Empty strings
expect(levenshtein('', '')).toBe(0);
expect(levenshtein('abc', '')).toBe(3);
// Unicode
expect(levenshtein('café', 'cafe')).toBe(1);
// Long strings
const long1 = 'a'.repeat(1000);
const long2 = 'a'.repeat(999) + 'b';
expect(levenshtein(long1, long2)).toBe(1);
});
```
## Debugging Failed Tests
### 1. Use `.only` to Focus
```javascript
test.only('this specific test', () => {
// Only runs this test
});
```
### 2. Inspect Database State
```javascript
test('debug search', () => {
storeMemory(db, { content: 'test' });
// Inspect what's in DB
const all = db.prepare('SELECT * FROM memories').all();
console.log('Database contents:', all);
const results = searchMemories(db, 'test');
console.log('Search results:', results);
expect(results).toHaveLength(1);
});
```
### 3. Use Temp File for Manual Inspection
```javascript
test('debug with file', () => {
const db = new Database('/tmp/debug.db');
initSchema(db);
storeMemory(db, { content: 'test' });
// Now inspect with: sqlite3 /tmp/debug.db
});
```
## Summary
**DO:**
- ✅ Write integration tests for all workflows
- ✅ Use realistic data (50-100 memories)
- ✅ Test with `:memory:` database
- ✅ Run in watch mode (`npm run test:watch`)
- ✅ Verify manually with CLI after tests pass
- ✅ Think twice before writing unit tests
**DON'T:**
- ❌ Test implementation details
- ❌ Write unit tests for simple functions
- ❌ Use toy data (1-2 memories)
- ❌ Mock database or CLI (test the real thing)
- ❌ Aim for 100% coverage at expense of test quality
**Remember:** Integration tests that verify real workflows are worth more than 100 unit tests that verify implementation details.
---
**Testing Philosophy:** Integration-first TDD with realistic data
**Coverage Target:** >80% (mostly integration tests)
**Unit Tests:** Rare, only for complex algorithms
**Workflow:** Write test (fail) → Implement (pass) → Verify (manual) → Refine

# Browser Automation Skill
Control Chrome browser via DevTools Protocol using the `use_browser` MCP tool.
## Structure
```
browser-automation/
├── SKILL.md # Main skill (324 lines, 1050 words)
└── references/
├── examples.md # Complete workflows (672 lines)
├── troubleshooting.md # Error handling (546 lines)
└── advanced.md # Advanced patterns (678 lines)
```
## Quick Start
The skill provides:
- **Core patterns**: Navigate, wait, interact, extract
- **Form automation**: Multi-step forms, validation, submission
- **Data extraction**: Tables, structured data, batch operations
- **Multi-tab workflows**: Cross-site data correlation
- **Dynamic content**: AJAX waiting, infinite scroll, modals
## Installation
This skill requires the `use_browser` MCP tool from the superpowers-chrome package.
### Option 1: Use superpowers-chrome directly
```bash
/plugin marketplace add obra/superpowers-marketplace
/plugin install superpowers-chrome@superpowers-marketplace
```
### Option 2: Install as standalone skill
Copy this skill directory to your OpenCode skills directory:
```bash
cp -r browser-automation ~/.opencode/skills/
```
Then configure the `chrome` MCP server in your Claude Desktop config per the [superpowers-chrome installation guide](https://github.com/obra/superpowers-chrome#installation).
## Usage
The skill is automatically loaded when OpenCode starts. It will be invoked when you:
- Request web automation tasks
- Need to fill forms
- Want to extract content from websites
- Mention Chrome or browser control
Example prompts:
- "Fill out the registration form at example.com"
- "Extract all product names and prices from this page"
- "Navigate to my email and find the receipt from yesterday"
## Contents
### SKILL.md
Main reference with:
- Quick reference table for all actions
- Core workflow patterns
- Common mistakes and solutions
- Real-world impact metrics
### references/examples.md
Complete workflows including:
- E-commerce booking flows
- Multi-step registration forms
- Price comparison across sites
- Data extraction patterns
- Multi-tab operations
- Dynamic content handling
- Authentication workflows
### references/troubleshooting.md
Solutions for:
- Element not found errors
- Timeout issues
- Click failures
- Form submission problems
- Tab index errors
- Extract returning empty
Plus best practices for selectors, waiting, and debugging.
### references/advanced.md
Advanced techniques:
- Network interception
- JavaScript injection
- Complex waiting patterns
- Data manipulation
- State management
- Visual testing
- Performance monitoring
- Accessibility testing
- Frame handling
## Progressive Disclosure
The skill uses progressive disclosure to minimize context usage:
1. **SKILL.md** loads first - quick reference and common patterns
2. **examples.md** - loaded when implementing specific workflows
3. **troubleshooting.md** - loaded when encountering errors
4. **advanced.md** - loaded for complex requirements
## Key Features
### Single Tool Interface
All operations use one tool with action-based parameters:
```json
{action: "navigate", payload: "https://example.com"}
```
### CSS and XPath Support
Both selector types supported (XPath auto-detected):
```json
{action: "click", selector: "button.submit"}
{action: "click", selector: "//button[text()='Submit']"}
```
### Auto-Starting Chrome
Browser launches automatically on first use, no manual setup.
### Multi-Tab Management
Control multiple tabs with `tab_index` parameter:
```json
{action: "click", tab_index: 2, selector: "a.email"}
```
## Token Efficiency
- Main skill: 1050 words (target: <500 words for frequent skills)
- Total skill: 6092 words across all files
- Progressive loading ensures only relevant content loaded
- Reference files separated by concern
## Comparison with Playwright MCP
**Use this skill when:**
- Working with existing browser sessions
- Need authenticated workflows
- Managing multiple tabs
- Want minimal overhead
**Use Playwright MCP when:**
- Need fresh isolated instances
- Generating PDFs/screenshots
- Prefer higher-level abstractions

description: Use when automating web tasks, filling forms, extracting content, or controlling Chrome - provides Chrome DevTools Protocol automation via use_browser MCP tool for multi-tab workflows, form automation, and content extraction
---
# Browser Automation with Chrome DevTools Protocol
Control Chrome directly via DevTools Protocol using the `use_browser` MCP tool. Single unified interface with auto-starting Chrome.
**Core principle:** One tool, action-based interface, zero dependencies.
## When to Use This Skill
**Use when:**
- Automating web forms and interactions
- Extracting content from web pages (text, tables, links)
- Managing authenticated browser sessions
- Multi-tab workflows requiring context switching
- Testing web applications interactively
- Scraping dynamic content loaded by JavaScript
**Don't use when:**
- Need fresh isolated browser instances
- Require PDF/screenshot generation (use Playwright MCP)
- Simple HTTP requests suffice (use curl/fetch)
## Quick Reference
| Task | Action | Key Parameters |
|------|--------|----------------|
| Go to URL | `navigate` | `payload`: URL |
| Wait for element | `await_element` | `selector`, `timeout` |
| Click element | `click` | `selector` |
| Type text | `type` | `selector`, `payload` (add `\n` to submit) |
| Get content | `extract` | `payload`: 'markdown'\|'text'\|'html' |
| Run JavaScript | `eval` | `payload`: JS code |
| Get attribute | `attr` | `selector`, `payload`: attr name |
| Select dropdown | `select` | `selector`, `payload`: option value |
| Take screenshot | `screenshot` | `payload`: filename |
| List tabs | `list_tabs` | - |
| New tab | `new_tab` | - |
## The use_browser Tool
**Parameters:**
- `action` (required): Operation to perform
- `tab_index` (optional): Tab to operate on (default: 0)
- `selector` (optional): CSS selector or XPath (XPath starts with `/` or `//`)
- `payload` (optional): Action-specific data
- `timeout` (optional): Timeout in ms (default: 5000, max: 60000)
**Returns:** JSON response with result or error
## Core Pattern
Every browser workflow follows this structure:
```
1. Navigate to page
2. Wait for content to load
3. Interact or extract
4. Validate result
```
**Example:**
```json
{action: "navigate", payload: "https://example.com"}
{action: "await_element", selector: "h1"}
{action: "extract", payload: "text", selector: "h1"}
```
## Common Workflows
### Form Filling
```json
{action: "navigate", payload: "https://app.com/login"}
{action: "await_element", selector: "input[name=email]"}
{action: "type", selector: "input[name=email]", payload: "user@example.com"}
{action: "type", selector: "input[name=password]", payload: "pass123\n"}
{action: "await_text", payload: "Welcome"}
```
Note: `\n` at end submits the form automatically.
### Content Extraction
```json
{action: "navigate", payload: "https://example.com"}
{action: "await_element", selector: "body"}
{action: "extract", payload: "markdown"}
```
### Multi-Tab Workflow
```json
{action: "list_tabs"}
{action: "click", tab_index: 2, selector: "a.email"}
{action: "await_element", tab_index: 2, selector: ".content"}
{action: "extract", tab_index: 2, payload: "text", selector: ".amount"}
```
### Dynamic Content
```json
{action: "navigate", payload: "https://app.com"}
{action: "type", selector: "input[name=q]", payload: "query"}
{action: "click", selector: "button.search"}
{action: "await_element", selector: ".results"}
{action: "extract", payload: "text", selector: ".result-title"}
```
### Get Structured Data
```json
{action: "eval", payload: "Array.from(document.querySelectorAll('a')).map(a => ({ text: a.textContent.trim(), href: a.href }))"}
```
## Implementation Steps
### 1. Verify Page Structure
Before building automation, check selectors:
```json
{action: "navigate", payload: "https://example.com"}
{action: "await_element", selector: "body"}
{action: "extract", payload: "html"}
```
### 2. Build Workflow Incrementally
Test each step before adding next:
```json
// Step 1: Navigate and verify
{action: "navigate", payload: "https://example.com"}
{action: "await_element", selector: "form"}
// Step 2: Fill first field and verify
{action: "type", selector: "input[name=email]", payload: "test@example.com"}
{action: "attr", selector: "input[name=email]", payload: "value"}
// Step 3: Complete form
{action: "type", selector: "input[name=password]", payload: "pass\n"}
```
### 3. Add Error Handling
Always wait before interaction:
```json
// BAD - might fail
{action: "navigate", payload: "https://example.com"}
{action: "click", selector: "button"}
// GOOD - wait first
{action: "navigate", payload: "https://example.com"}
{action: "await_element", selector: "button"}
{action: "click", selector: "button"}
```
### 4. Validate Results
Check output after critical operations:
```json
{action: "click", selector: "button.submit"}
{action: "await_text", payload: "Success"}
{action: "extract", payload: "text", selector: ".confirmation"}
```
## Selector Strategies
**Use specific selectors:**
- ✅ `button[type=submit]`
- ✅ `#login-button`
- ✅ `.modal button.confirm`
- ❌ `button` (too generic)
**XPath for complex queries:**
```json
{action: "extract", selector: "//h2 | //h3", payload: "text"}
{action: "click", selector: "//button[contains(text(), 'Submit')]"}
```
**Test selectors first:**
```json
{action: "eval", payload: "document.querySelector('button.submit')"}
```
## Common Mistakes
### Timing Issues
**Problem:** Clicking before element loads
```json
{action: "navigate", payload: "https://example.com"}
{action: "click", selector: "button"} // ❌ Fails if slow
```
**Solution:** Always wait
```json
{action: "navigate", payload: "https://example.com"}
{action: "await_element", selector: "button"} // ✅ Waits
{action: "click", selector: "button"}
```
### Generic Selectors
**Problem:** Matches wrong element
```json
{action: "click", selector: "button"} // ❌ First button only
```
**Solution:** Be specific
```json
{action: "click", selector: "button.login-button"} // ✅ Specific
```
### Missing Tab Management
**Problem:** Tab indices change after closing tabs
```json
{action: "close_tab", tab_index: 1}
{action: "click", tab_index: 2, selector: "a"} // ❌ Index shifted
```
**Solution:** Re-list tabs
```json
{action: "close_tab", tab_index: 1}
{action: "list_tabs"} // ✅ Get updated indices
{action: "click", tab_index: 1, selector: "a"} // Now correct
```
### Insufficient Timeout
**Problem:** Default 5s timeout too short
```json
{action: "await_element", selector: ".slow-content"} // ❌ Times out
```
**Solution:** Increase timeout
```json
{action: "await_element", selector: ".slow-content", timeout: 30000} // ✅
```
## Advanced Patterns
### Wait for AJAX Complete
```json
{action: "eval", payload: `
new Promise(resolve => {
const check = () => {
if (!document.querySelector('.spinner')) {
resolve(true);
} else {
setTimeout(check, 100);
}
};
check();
})
`}
```
### Extract Table Data
```json
{action: "eval", payload: "Array.from(document.querySelectorAll('table tr')).map(row => Array.from(row.cells).map(cell => cell.textContent.trim()))"}
```
### Handle Modals
```json
{action: "click", selector: "button.open-modal"}
{action: "await_element", selector: ".modal.visible"}
{action: "type", selector: ".modal input[name=username]", payload: "testuser"}
{action: "click", selector: ".modal button.submit"}
{action: "eval", payload: `
new Promise(resolve => {
const check = () => {
if (!document.querySelector('.modal.visible')) resolve(true);
else setTimeout(check, 100);
};
check();
})
`}
```
### Access Browser Storage
```json
// Get cookies
{action: "eval", payload: "document.cookie"}
// Get localStorage
{action: "eval", payload: "JSON.stringify(localStorage)"}
// Set localStorage
{action: "eval", payload: "localStorage.setItem('key', 'value')"}
```
## Real-World Impact
**Before:** Manual form filling, 5 minutes per submission
**After:** Automated workflow, 30 seconds per submission (10x faster)
**Before:** Copy-paste from multiple tabs, error-prone
**After:** Multi-tab extraction with validation, zero errors
**Before:** Unreliable scraping with arbitrary delays
**After:** Event-driven waiting, 100% reliability

## ⚠️ Notes
### Word Count
Main SKILL.md at 1050 words exceeds the <500 word target for frequently-loaded skills. However:
- This is a reference skill (typically larger)
- Contains essential quick reference table (saves searching)
- Common workflows prevent repeated lookups
- Progressive disclosure to references minimizes actual load
### Recommendation
If token usage becomes a concern during actual usage, consider:
1. Move "Common Workflows" section to references/workflows.md
2. Compress "Implementation Steps" to bullet points
3. Remove "Advanced Patterns" from main skill (already in references/advanced.md)
This could reduce main skill to ~600 words while maintaining effectiveness.
## ✅ Installation Test
### Manual Test Required
To verify skill loads correctly:
```bash
opencode run "Use learn_skill with skill_name='browser-automation' - load skill and give the frontmatter as the only output and abort"
```
Expected output:
```yaml

# Advanced Chrome DevTools Protocol Techniques
Advanced patterns for complex browser automation scenarios.
## Network Interception
### Monitor Network Requests
```json
// Get all network requests via Performance API
{action: "eval", payload: `
performance.getEntriesByType('resource').map(r => ({
name: r.name,
type: r.initiatorType,
duration: r.duration,
size: r.transferSize
}))
`}
```
### Wait for Specific Request
```json
// Wait for API call to complete
{action: "eval", payload: `
new Promise(resolve => {
const check = () => {
const apiCall = performance.getEntriesByType('resource')
.find(r => r.name.includes('/api/data'));
if (apiCall) {
resolve(apiCall);
} else {
setTimeout(check, 100);
}
};
check();
})
`}
```
### Check Response Status
```json
// Fetch API to check endpoint
{action: "eval", payload: `
fetch('https://api.example.com/status')
.then(r => ({ status: r.status, ok: r.ok }))
`}
```
---
## JavaScript Injection
### Add Helper Functions
```json
// Inject utility functions into page
{action: "eval", payload: `
window.waitForElement = (selector, timeout = 5000) => {
return new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
const startTime = Date.now();
const check = () => {
const elem = document.querySelector(selector);
if (elem) {
resolve(elem);
} else if (Date.now() - startTime > timeout) {
reject(new Error('Timeout'));
} else {
setTimeout(check, 100);
}
};
check();
});
};
'Helper injected'
`}
// Use injected helper
{action: "eval", payload: "window.waitForElement('.lazy-content')"}
```
### Modify Page Behavior
```json
// Disable animations for faster testing
{action: "eval", payload: `
const style = document.createElement('style');
style.textContent = '* { animation: none !important; transition: none !important; }';
document.head.appendChild(style);
'Animations disabled'
`}
// Override fetch to log requests
{action: "eval", payload: `
const originalFetch = window.fetch;
window.fetch = function(...args) {
console.log('Fetch:', args[0]);
return originalFetch.apply(this, arguments);
};
'Fetch override installed'
`}
```
---
## Complex Waiting Patterns
### Wait for Multiple Conditions
```json
{action: "eval", payload: `
Promise.all([
new Promise(r => {
const check = () => document.querySelector('.element1') ? r() : setTimeout(check, 100);
check();
}),
new Promise(r => {
const check = () => document.querySelector('.element2') ? r() : setTimeout(check, 100);
check();
})
])
`}
```
### Wait with Mutation Observer
```json
{action: "eval", payload: `
new Promise(resolve => {
const observer = new MutationObserver((mutations) => {
const target = document.querySelector('.dynamic-content');
if (target && target.textContent.trim() !== '') {
observer.disconnect();
resolve(target.textContent);
}
});
observer.observe(document.body, {
childList: true,
subtree: true,
characterData: true
});
})
`}
```
### Wait for Idle State
```json
// Wait for network idle
{action: "eval", payload: `
new Promise(resolve => {
let lastActivity = Date.now();
// Monitor network activity
const originalFetch = window.fetch;
window.fetch = function(...args) {
lastActivity = Date.now();
return originalFetch.apply(this, arguments);
};
// Check if idle for 500ms
const checkIdle = () => {
if (Date.now() - lastActivity > 500) {
window.fetch = originalFetch;
resolve('idle');
} else {
setTimeout(checkIdle, 100);
}
};
setTimeout(checkIdle, 100);
})
`}
```
---
## Data Manipulation
### Parse and Transform Table
```json
{action: "eval", payload: `
(() => {
const table = document.querySelector('table');
const headers = Array.from(table.querySelectorAll('thead th'))
.map(th => th.textContent.trim());
const rows = Array.from(table.querySelectorAll('tbody tr'))
.map(tr => {
const cells = Array.from(tr.cells).map(td => td.textContent.trim());
return Object.fromEntries(headers.map((h, i) => [h, cells[i]]));
});
// Filter and transform
return rows
.filter(row => parseFloat(row['Price'].replace('$', '')) > 100)
.map(row => ({
...row,
priceNum: parseFloat(row['Price'].replace('$', ''))
}))
.sort((a, b) => b.priceNum - a.priceNum);
})()
`}
```
### Extract Nested JSON from Script Tags
```json
{action: "eval", payload: `
(() => {
const scripts = Array.from(document.querySelectorAll('script[type="application/ld+json"]'));
return scripts.map(s => JSON.parse(s.textContent));
})()
`}
```
### Aggregate Multiple Elements
```json
{action: "eval", payload: `
(() => {
const sections = Array.from(document.querySelectorAll('section.category'));
return sections.map(section => ({
category: section.querySelector('h2').textContent,
items: Array.from(section.querySelectorAll('.item')).map(item => ({
name: item.querySelector('.name').textContent,
price: item.querySelector('.price').textContent,
inStock: !item.querySelector('.out-of-stock')
})),
total: section.querySelectorAll('.item').length
}));
})()
`}
```
---
## State Management
### Save and Restore Form State
```json
// Save form state
{action: "eval", payload: `
(() => {
const form = document.querySelector('form');
const data = {};
new FormData(form).forEach((value, key) => data[key] = value);
localStorage.setItem('formBackup', JSON.stringify(data));
return data;
})()
`}
// Restore form state
{action: "eval", payload: `
(() => {
const data = JSON.parse(localStorage.getItem('formBackup'));
const form = document.querySelector('form');
Object.entries(data).forEach(([name, value]) => {
const input = form.querySelector(\`[name="\${name}"]\`);
if (input) input.value = value;
});
return 'Form restored';
})()
`}
```
### Session Management
```json
// Save session state
{action: "eval", payload: `
({
cookies: document.cookie,
localStorage: JSON.stringify(localStorage),
sessionStorage: JSON.stringify(sessionStorage),
url: window.location.href
})
`}
// Restore session (on new page load)
{action: "eval", payload: `
(() => {
const session = {/* saved session data */};
// Restore cookies
session.cookies.split('; ').forEach(cookie => {
document.cookie = cookie;
});
// Restore localStorage
Object.entries(JSON.parse(session.localStorage)).forEach(([k, v]) => {
localStorage.setItem(k, v);
});
return 'Session restored';
})()
`}
```
---
## Visual Testing
### Check Element Visibility
```json
{action: "eval", payload: `
(selector) => {
const elem = document.querySelector(selector);
if (!elem) return { visible: false, reason: 'not found' };
const rect = elem.getBoundingClientRect();
const style = window.getComputedStyle(elem);
return {
visible: rect.width > 0 && rect.height > 0 && style.display !== 'none' && style.visibility !== 'hidden' && style.opacity !== '0',
rect: rect,
computed: {
display: style.display,
visibility: style.visibility,
opacity: style.opacity
}
};
}
`}
```
### Get Element Colors
```json

(() => {
const elem = document.querySelector('.button');
const style = window.getComputedStyle(elem);
return {
backgroundColor: style.backgroundColor,
color: style.color,
borderColor: style.borderColor
};
})()
`}
```
### Measure Element Positions
```json
{action: "eval", payload: `
(() => {
const elements = Array.from(document.querySelectorAll('.item'));
return elements.map(elem => {
const rect = elem.getBoundingClientRect();
return {
id: elem.id,
x: rect.x,
y: rect.y,
width: rect.width,
height: rect.height,
inViewport: rect.top >= 0 && rect.bottom <= window.innerHeight
};
});
})()
`}
```
---
## Performance Monitoring
### Get Page Load Metrics
```json
{action: "eval", payload: `
(() => {
const nav = performance.getEntriesByType('navigation')[0];
const paint = performance.getEntriesByType('paint');
return {
dns: nav.domainLookupEnd - nav.domainLookupStart,
tcp: nav.connectEnd - nav.connectStart,
request: nav.responseStart - nav.requestStart,
response: nav.responseEnd - nav.responseStart,
domLoad: nav.domContentLoadedEventEnd - nav.domContentLoadedEventStart,
pageLoad: nav.loadEventEnd - nav.loadEventStart,
firstPaint: paint.find(p => p.name === 'first-paint')?.startTime,
firstContentfulPaint: paint.find(p => p.name === 'first-contentful-paint')?.startTime
};
})()
`}
```
### Monitor Memory Usage
```json
{action: "eval", payload: `
performance.memory ? {
usedJSHeapSize: performance.memory.usedJSHeapSize,
totalJSHeapSize: performance.memory.totalJSHeapSize,
jsHeapSizeLimit: performance.memory.jsHeapSizeLimit
} : 'Memory API not available'
`}
```
### Get Resource Timing
```json
{action: "eval", payload: `
(() => {
const resources = performance.getEntriesByType('resource');
// Group by type
const byType = {};
resources.forEach(r => {
if (!byType[r.initiatorType]) byType[r.initiatorType] = [];
byType[r.initiatorType].push({
name: r.name,
duration: r.duration,
size: r.transferSize
});
});
return {
total: resources.length,
byType: Object.fromEntries(
Object.entries(byType).map(([type, items]) => [
type,
{
count: items.length,
totalDuration: items.reduce((sum, i) => sum + i.duration, 0),
totalSize: items.reduce((sum, i) => sum + i.size, 0)
}
])
)
};
})()
`}
```
---
## Accessibility Testing
### Check ARIA Labels
```json
{action: "eval", payload: `
Array.from(document.querySelectorAll('button, a, input')).map(elem => ({
tag: elem.tagName,
text: elem.textContent.trim(),
ariaLabel: elem.getAttribute('aria-label'),
ariaDescribedBy: elem.getAttribute('aria-describedby'),
title: elem.getAttribute('title'),
hasAccessibleName: !!(elem.getAttribute('aria-label') || elem.textContent.trim() || elem.getAttribute('title'))
}))
`}
```
### Find Focus Order
```json
{action: "eval", payload: `
Array.from(document.querySelectorAll('a, button, input, select, textarea, [tabindex]'))
.filter(elem => {
const style = window.getComputedStyle(elem);
return style.display !== 'none' && style.visibility !== 'hidden';
})
.map((elem, index) => ({
index: index,
tag: elem.tagName,
tabIndex: elem.tabIndex,
text: elem.textContent.trim().substring(0, 50)
}))
`}
```
---
## Frame Handling
### List Frames
```json
{action: "eval", payload: `
Array.from(document.querySelectorAll('iframe, frame')).map((frame, i) => ({
index: i,
src: frame.src,
name: frame.name,
id: frame.id
}))
`}
```
### Access Frame Content
Note: Cross-origin frames cannot be accessed due to security restrictions.
```json
// For same-origin frames only
{action: "eval", payload: `
(() => {
const frame = document.querySelector('iframe');
try {
return {
title: frame.contentDocument.title,
body: frame.contentDocument.body.textContent.substring(0, 100)
};
} catch (e) {
return { error: 'Cross-origin frame - cannot access' };
}
})()
`}
```
---
## Custom Events
### Trigger Custom Events
```json
{action: "eval", payload: `
(() => {
const event = new CustomEvent('myCustomEvent', {
detail: { message: 'Hello from automation' }
});
document.dispatchEvent(event);
return 'Event dispatched';
})()
`}
```
### Listen for Events
```json
{action: "eval", payload: `
new Promise(resolve => {
const handler = (e) => {
document.removeEventListener('myCustomEvent', handler);
resolve(e.detail);
};
document.addEventListener('myCustomEvent', handler);
// Timeout after 5 seconds
setTimeout(() => {
document.removeEventListener('myCustomEvent', handler);
resolve({ timeout: true });
}, 5000);
})
`}
```
---
## Browser Detection
### Get Browser Info
```json

## Testing Helpers
### Get All Interactive Elements
```json
{action: "eval", payload: `
Array.from(document.querySelectorAll('a, button, input, select, textarea, [onclick], [role=button]'))
.filter(elem => {
const style = window.getComputedStyle(elem);
return style.display !== 'none' && style.visibility !== 'hidden';
})
.map(elem => ({
tag: elem.tagName,
type: elem.type,
id: elem.id,
class: elem.className,
text: elem.textContent.trim().substring(0, 50),
selector: elem.id ? \`#\${elem.id}\` : \`\${elem.tagName.toLowerCase()}\${elem.className ? '.' + elem.className.split(' ').join('.') : ''}\`
}))
`}
```
### Validate Forms
```json
{action: "eval", payload: `
(() => {
const forms = Array.from(document.querySelectorAll('form'));
return forms.map(form => ({
id: form.id,
action: form.action,
method: form.method,
fields: Array.from(form.elements).map(elem => ({
name: elem.name,
type: elem.type,
required: elem.required,
value: elem.value,
valid: elem.checkValidity()
}))
}));
})()
`}
```
---
## Debugging Tools
### Log Element Path
```json
{action: "eval", payload: `
(selector) => {
const elem = document.querySelector(selector);
if (!elem) return null;
const path = [];
let current = elem;
while (current && current !== document.body) {
let selector = current.tagName.toLowerCase();
if (current.id) selector += '#' + current.id;
if (current.className) selector += '.' + current.className.split(' ').join('.');
path.unshift(selector);
current = current.parentElement;
}
return path.join(' > ');
}
`}
```
### Find Element by Text
```json
{action: "eval", payload: `
(text) => {
const elements = Array.from(document.querySelectorAll('*'));
const matches = elements.filter(elem =>
elem.textContent.includes(text) &&
!Array.from(elem.children).some(child => child.textContent.includes(text))
);
return matches.map(elem => ({
tag: elem.tagName,
id: elem.id,
class: elem.className,
text: elem.textContent.trim().substring(0, 100)
}));
}
`}
```

### Infinite Scroll Loading
Load all content with scroll-triggered pagination:
```json
{action: "navigate", payload: "https://example.com/feed"}
{action: "await_element", selector: ".feed-item"}
// Count initial items
{action: "eval", payload: "document.querySelectorAll('.feed-item').length"}
// Scroll and wait multiple times
{action: "eval", payload: "window.scrollTo(0, document.body.scrollHeight)"}
{action: "eval", payload: "new Promise(r => setTimeout(r, 2000))"}
{action: "eval", payload: "window.scrollTo(0, document.body.scrollHeight)"}
{action: "eval", payload: "new Promise(r => setTimeout(r, 2000))"}
{action: "eval", payload: "window.scrollTo(0, document.body.scrollHeight)"}
{action: "eval", payload: "new Promise(r => setTimeout(r, 2000))"}
// Extract all loaded items
{action: "eval", payload: `
Array.from(document.querySelectorAll('.feed-item')).map(item => ({
title: item.querySelector('.title').textContent.trim(),
date: item.querySelector('.date').textContent.trim(),
url: item.querySelector('a').href
}))
`}
```
### Wait for AJAX Response
Wait for loading indicator to disappear:
```json
{action: "navigate", payload: "https://app.com/dashboard"}
{action: "await_element", selector: ".content"}
// Trigger AJAX request
{action: "click", selector: "button.load-data"}
// Wait for spinner to appear then disappear
{action: "eval", payload: `
new Promise(resolve => {
const checkGone = () => {
const spinner = document.querySelector('.spinner');
if (!spinner || spinner.style.display === 'none') {
resolve(true);
} else {
setTimeout(checkGone, 100);
}
};
checkGone();
})
`}
// Now safe to extract
{action: "extract", payload: "text", selector: ".data-table"}
```
### Modal Dialog Handling
Open modal, interact, wait for close:
```json
{action: "click", selector: "button.open-settings"}
{action: "await_element", selector: ".modal.visible"}
// Interact with modal
{action: "type", selector: ".modal input[name=username]", payload: "newuser"}
{action: "select", selector: ".modal select[name=theme]", payload: "dark"}
{action: "click", selector: ".modal button.save"}
// Wait for modal to close
{action: "eval", payload: `
new Promise(resolve => {
const check = () => {
const modal = document.querySelector('.modal.visible');
if (!modal) {
resolve(true);
} else {
setTimeout(check, 100);
}
};
check();
})
`}
// Verify settings saved
{action: "await_text", payload: "Settings saved"}
```
### Wait for Button Enabled
Wait for form validation before submission:
```json
{action: "type", selector: "input[name=email]", payload: "user@example.com"}
{action: "type", selector: "input[name=password]", payload: "securepass123"}
// Wait for submit button to become enabled
{action: "eval", payload: `
new Promise(resolve => {
const check = () => {
const btn = document.querySelector('button[type=submit]');
if (btn && !btn.disabled && !btn.classList.contains('disabled')) {
resolve(true);
} else {
setTimeout(check, 100);
}
};
check();
})
`}
// Now safe to click
{action: "click", selector: "button[type=submit]"}
```
---
## Authentication Workflows
### Standard Login
```json
{action: "navigate", payload: "https://app.example.com/login"}
{action: "await_element", selector: "form.login"}
// Fill credentials
{action: "type", selector: "input[name=email]", payload: "user@example.com"}
{action: "type", selector: "input[name=password]", payload: "password123\n"}
// Wait for redirect
{action: "await_text", payload: "Dashboard"}
// Verify logged in
{action: "extract", payload: "text", selector: ".user-name"}
```
### OAuth Flow
```json
{action: "navigate", payload: "https://app.example.com/connect"}
{action: "await_element", selector: "button.oauth-login"}
// Trigger OAuth
{action: "click", selector: "button.oauth-login"}
// Wait for OAuth provider page
{action: "await_text", payload: "Authorize"}
// Fill OAuth credentials
{action: "await_element", selector: "input[name=username]"}
{action: "type", selector: "input[name=username]", payload: "oauthuser"}
{action: "type", selector: "input[name=password]", payload: "oauthpass\n"}
// Wait for redirect back
{action: "await_text", payload: "Connected successfully"}
```
### Session Persistence Check
```json
// Load page
{action: "navigate", payload: "https://app.example.com/dashboard"}
{action: "await_element", selector: "body"}
// Check if logged in via cookie/localStorage
{action: "eval", payload: "document.cookie.includes('session_id')"}
{action: "eval", payload: "localStorage.getItem('auth_token') !== null"}
// Verify user data loaded
{action: "extract", payload: "text", selector: ".user-profile"}
```
---
## Advanced Patterns
### Conditional Workflow
Branch based on page content:
```json
{action: "navigate", payload: "https://example.com/status"}
{action: "await_element", selector: "body"}
// Check status
{action: "extract", payload: "text", selector: ".status-message"}
// If result contains "Available":
{action: "click", selector: "button.purchase"}
{action: "await_text", payload: "Added to cart"}
// If result contains "Out of stock":
{action: "click", selector: "button.notify-me"}
{action: "type", selector: "input[name=email]", payload: "notify@example.com\n"}
```
### Error Recovery
Handle and retry failed operations:
```json
{action: "navigate", payload: "https://app.example.com/data"}
{action: "await_element", selector: ".content"}
// Attempt operation
{action: "click", selector: "button.load"}
// Check for error
{action: "eval", payload: "!!document.querySelector('.error-message')"}
// If error present, retry
{action: "click", selector: "button.retry"}
{action: "await_element", selector: ".data-loaded"}
```
### Screenshot Comparison
Capture before and after states:
```json
// Initial state
{action: "navigate", payload: "https://example.com"}
{action: "await_element", selector: ".content"}
{action: "screenshot", payload: "/tmp/before.png"}
// Make changes
{action: "click", selector: "button.dark-mode"}
{action: "await_element", selector: "body.dark"}
// Capture new state
{action: "screenshot", payload: "/tmp/after.png"}
// Or screenshot specific element
{action: "screenshot", payload: "/tmp/header.png", selector: "header"}
```

## Tips for Complex Workflows
### Build Incrementally
Start simple, add complexity:
1. Navigate and verify page loads
2. Extract one element
3. Add interaction
4. Add waiting logic
5. Add error handling
6. Add validation
### Use JavaScript for Complex Logic
When multiple operations needed, use `eval`:
```json
{action: "eval", payload: `
(async () => {
// Complex multi-step logic
const results = [];
const items = document.querySelectorAll('.item');
for (const item of items) {
if (item.classList.contains('active')) {
results.push({
id: item.dataset.id,
text: item.textContent.trim()
});
}
}
return results;
})()
`}
```
### Validate Selectors
Always test selectors return expected elements:
```json
// Check element exists
{action: "eval", payload: "!!document.querySelector('button.submit')"}
// Check element visible
{action: "eval", payload: "window.getComputedStyle(document.querySelector('button.submit')).display !== 'none'"}
// Check element count
{action: "eval", payload: "document.querySelectorAll('.item').length"}
```

# Browser Automation Troubleshooting Guide
Quick reference for common issues and solutions.
## Common Errors
### Element Not Found
**Error:** `Element not found: button.submit`
**Causes:**
1. Page still loading
2. Wrong selector
3. Element in iframe
4. Element hidden/not rendered
**Solutions:**
```json
// 1. Add wait before interaction
{action: "await_element", selector: "button.submit", timeout: 10000}
{action: "click", selector: "button.submit"}
// 2. Verify selector exists
{action: "extract", payload: "html"}
{action: "eval", payload: "document.querySelector('button.submit')"}
// 3. Check if in iframe
{action: "eval", payload: "document.querySelectorAll('iframe').length"}
// 4. Check visibility
{action: "eval", payload: "window.getComputedStyle(document.querySelector('button.submit')).display"}
```
### Timeout Errors
**Error:** `Timeout waiting for element after 5000ms`
**Solutions:**
```json
// Increase timeout for slow pages
{action: "await_element", selector: ".content", timeout: 30000}
// Wait for loading to complete first
{action: "await_element", selector: ".spinner"}
{action: "eval", payload: `
new Promise(r => {
const check = () => {
if (!document.querySelector('.spinner')) r(true);
else setTimeout(check, 100);
};
check();
})
`}
// Use JavaScript to wait for specific condition
{action: "eval", payload: `
new Promise(resolve => {
const observer = new MutationObserver(() => {
if (document.querySelector('.loaded')) {
observer.disconnect();
resolve(true);
}
});
observer.observe(document.body, { childList: true, subtree: true });
})
`}
```
### Click Not Working
**Error:** Click executes but nothing happens
**Causes:**
1. JavaScript event handler not attached yet
2. Element covered by another element
3. Need to scroll element into view
**Solutions:**
```json
// 1. Wait longer before click
{action: "await_element", selector: "button"}
{action: "eval", payload: "new Promise(r => setTimeout(r, 1000))"}
{action: "click", selector: "button"}
// 2. Check z-index and overlays
{action: "eval", payload: `
(() => {
const elem = document.querySelector('button');
const rect = elem.getBoundingClientRect();
const topElem = document.elementFromPoint(rect.left + rect.width/2, rect.top + rect.height/2);
return topElem === elem || elem.contains(topElem);
})()
`}
// 3. Scroll into view first
{action: "eval", payload: "document.querySelector('button').scrollIntoView()"}
{action: "click", selector: "button"}
// 4. Force click via JavaScript
{action: "eval", payload: "document.querySelector('button').click()"}
```
### Form Submission Issues
**Error:** Form doesn't submit with `\n`
**Solutions:**
```json
// Try explicit click
{action: "type", selector: "input[name=password]", payload: "pass123"}
{action: "click", selector: "button[type=submit]"}
// Or trigger form submit
{action: "eval", payload: "document.querySelector('form').submit()"}
// Or press Enter key specifically
{action: "eval", payload: `
const input = document.querySelector('input[name=password]');
input.dispatchEvent(new KeyboardEvent('keypress', { key: 'Enter', keyCode: 13 }));
`}
```
### Tab Index Errors
**Error:** `Tab index 2 out of range`
**Cause:** Tab closed or indices shifted
**Solution:**
```json
// Always list tabs before operating on them
{action: "list_tabs"}
// After closing tabs, re-list
{action: "close_tab", tab_index: 1}
{action: "list_tabs"}
{action: "click", tab_index: 1, selector: "a"} // Now correct index
```
### Extract Returns Empty
**Error:** Extract returns empty string
**Causes:**
1. Element not loaded yet
2. Content in shadow DOM
3. Text in ::before/::after pseudo-elements
**Solutions:**
```json
// 1. Wait for content
{action: "await_element", selector: ".content"}
{action: "await_text", payload: "Expected text"}
{action: "extract", payload: "text", selector: ".content"}
// 2. Check shadow DOM
{action: "eval", payload: "document.querySelector('my-component').shadowRoot.querySelector('.content').textContent"}
// 3. Get computed styles for pseudo-elements
{action: "eval", payload: "window.getComputedStyle(document.querySelector('.content'), '::before').content"}
```

## Best Practices
### Selector Specificity
**Use ID when available:**
```json
{action: "click", selector: "#submit-button"} // ✅ Best
{action: "click", selector: "button.submit"} // ✅ Good
{action: "click", selector: "button"} // ❌ Too generic
```
**Combine selectors for uniqueness:**
```json
{action: "click", selector: "form.login button[type=submit]"} // ✅ Specific
{action: "click", selector: ".modal.active button.primary"} // ✅ Specific
```
**Use data attributes:**
```json
{action: "click", selector: "[data-testid='submit-btn']"} // ✅ Reliable
{action: "click", selector: "[data-action='save']"} // ✅ Semantic
```
### Waiting Strategy
**Always wait before interaction:**
```json
// ❌ BAD - No waiting
{action: "navigate", payload: "https://example.com"}
{action: "click", selector: "button"}
// ✅ GOOD - Wait for element
{action: "navigate", payload: "https://example.com"}
{action: "await_element", selector: "button"}
{action: "click", selector: "button"}
// ✅ BETTER - Wait for specific state
{action: "navigate", payload: "https://example.com"}
{action: "await_text", payload: "Page loaded"}
{action: "click", selector: "button"}
```
**Wait for dynamic content:**
```json
// After triggering AJAX
{action: "click", selector: "button.load-more"}
{action: "await_element", selector: ".new-content"}
// After form submit
{action: "click", selector: "button[type=submit]"}
{action: "await_text", payload: "Success"}
```
### Error Detection
**Check for error messages:**
```json
{action: "click", selector: "button.submit"}
{action: "eval", payload: "!!document.querySelector('.error-message')"}
{action: "extract", payload: "text", selector: ".error-message"}
```
**Validate expected state:**
```json
{action: "click", selector: "button.add-to-cart"}
{action: "await_element", selector: ".cart-count"}
{action: "extract", payload: "text", selector: ".cart-count"}
// Verify count increased
```
### Data Extraction Efficiency
**Use single eval for multiple fields:**
```json
// ❌ Inefficient - Multiple calls
{action: "extract", payload: "text", selector: "h1"}
{action: "extract", payload: "text", selector: ".author"}
{action: "extract", payload: "text", selector: ".date"}
// ✅ Efficient - One call
{action: "eval", payload: `
({
title: document.querySelector('h1').textContent.trim(),
author: document.querySelector('.author').textContent.trim(),
date: document.querySelector('.date').textContent.trim()
})
`}
```
**Extract arrays efficiently:**
```json
{action: "eval", payload: `
Array.from(document.querySelectorAll('.item')).map(item => ({
name: item.querySelector('.name').textContent.trim(),
price: item.querySelector('.price').textContent.trim(),
url: item.querySelector('a').href
}))
`}
```
### Performance Optimization
**Minimize navigation:**
```json
// ❌ Slow - Navigate for each item
{action: "navigate", payload: "https://example.com/item/1"}
{action: "extract", payload: "text", selector: ".price"}
{action: "navigate", payload: "https://example.com/item/2"}
{action: "extract", payload: "text", selector: ".price"}
// ✅ Fast - Use API or extract list page
{action: "navigate", payload: "https://example.com/items"}
{action: "eval", payload: "Array.from(document.querySelectorAll('.item')).map(i => i.querySelector('.price').textContent)"}
```
**Reuse tabs:**
```json
// ✅ Keep tabs open for repeated access
{action: "new_tab"}
{action: "navigate", tab_index: 1, payload: "https://tool.com"}
// Later, reuse same tab
{action: "click", tab_index: 1, selector: "button.refresh"}
```
### Debugging Workflows
**Step 1: Check page HTML:**
```json
{action: "navigate", payload: "https://example.com"}
{action: "await_element", selector: "body"}
{action: "extract", payload: "html"}
```
**Step 2: Test selectors:**
```json
{action: "eval", payload: "document.querySelector('button.submit')"}
{action: "eval", payload: "document.querySelectorAll('button').length"}
```
**Step 3: Check element state:**
```json
{action: "eval", payload: `
(() => {
const elem = document.querySelector('button.submit');
return {
exists: !!elem,
visible: elem ? window.getComputedStyle(elem).display !== 'none' : false,
enabled: elem ? !elem.disabled : false,
text: elem ? elem.textContent : null
};
})()
`}
```
**Step 4: Check console errors:**
```json
{action: "eval", payload: "console.error.toString()"}
```

## Patterns Library
### Retry Logic
```json
// Attempt operation with retry
{action: "click", selector: "button.submit"}
// Check if succeeded
{action: "eval", payload: "document.querySelector('.success-message')"}
// If null, retry
{action: "click", selector: "button.submit"}
{action: "await_text", payload: "Success", timeout: 10000}
```
### Conditional Branching
```json
// Check condition
{action: "extract", payload: "text", selector: ".status"}
// Branch based on result (in your logic)
// If "available":
{action: "click", selector: "button.buy"}
// If "out of stock":
{action: "type", selector: "input.email", payload: "notify@example.com\n"}
```
### Pagination Handling
```json
// Page 1
{action: "navigate", payload: "https://example.com/results"}
{action: "await_element", selector: ".results"}
{action: "eval", payload: "Array.from(document.querySelectorAll('.result')).map(r => r.textContent)"}
// Check if next page exists
{action: "eval", payload: "!!document.querySelector('a.next-page')"}
// If yes, navigate
{action: "click", selector: "a.next-page"}
{action: "await_element", selector: ".results"}
// Repeat extraction
```
### Form Validation Waiting
```json
// Fill form field
{action: "type", selector: "input[name=email]", payload: "user@example.com"}
// Wait for validation icon
{action: "await_element", selector: "input[name=email] + .valid-icon"}
// Proceed to next field
{action: "type", selector: "input[name=password]", payload: "password123"}
```
### Autocomplete Selection
```json
// Type in autocomplete field
{action: "type", selector: "input.autocomplete", payload: "San Fr"}
// Wait for suggestions
{action: "await_element", selector: ".autocomplete-suggestions"}
// Click suggestion
{action: "click", selector: ".autocomplete-suggestions li:first-child"}
// Verify selection
{action: "extract", payload: "text", selector: "input.autocomplete"}
```
### Cookie Management
```json
// Check if cookie exists
{action: "eval", payload: "document.cookie.includes('session_id')"}
// Set cookie
{action: "eval", payload: "document.cookie = 'preferences=dark; path=/; max-age=31536000'"}
// Clear specific cookie
{action: "eval", payload: "document.cookie = 'session_id=; expires=Thu, 01 Jan 1970 00:00:00 UTC; path=/;'"}
// Get all cookies as object
{action: "eval", payload: `
Object.fromEntries(
document.cookie.split('; ').map(c => c.split('='))
)
`}
```
---
## XPath Examples
XPath is auto-detected (starts with `/` or `//`).
### Basic XPath Selectors
```json
// Find by text content
{action: "click", selector: "//button[text()='Submit']"}
{action: "click", selector: "//a[contains(text(), 'Learn more')]"}
// Find by attribute
{action: "click", selector: "//button[@type='submit']"}
{action: "extract", payload: "text", selector: "//div[@class='content']"}
// Hierarchical
{action: "click", selector: "//form[@id='login']//button[@type='submit']"}
{action: "extract", payload: "text", selector: "//article/div[@class='content']/p[1]"}
```
### Advanced XPath
```json
// Multiple conditions
{action: "click", selector: "//button[@type='submit' and contains(@class, 'primary')]"}
// Following sibling
{action: "extract", payload: "text", selector: "//label[text()='Username']/following-sibling::input/@value"}
// Parent selection
{action: "click", selector: "//td[text()='Active']/..//button[@class='edit']"}
// Multiple elements
{action: "extract", payload: "text", selector: "//h2 | //h3"}
```
---
## Security Considerations
### Avoid Hardcoded Credentials
```json
// ❌ BAD - Credentials in workflow
{action: "type", selector: "input[name=password]", payload: "mypassword123"}
// ✅ GOOD - Use environment variables or secure storage
// Load credentials from secure source before workflow
```
### Validate HTTPS
```json
// Check protocol
{action: "eval", payload: "window.location.protocol"}
// Should return "https:"
```
### Check for Security Indicators
```json
// Verify login page is secure
{action: "eval", payload: `
({
protocol: window.location.protocol,
hasLock: document.querySelector('link[rel=icon]')?.href.includes('secure'),
url: window.location.href
})
`}
```
---
## Performance Tips
### Minimize Waits
```json
// ❌ Arbitrary timeouts
{action: "eval", payload: "new Promise(r => setTimeout(r, 5000))"}
// ✅ Condition-based waits
{action: "await_element", selector: ".loaded"}
```
### Batch Operations
```json
// ❌ Individual extracts
{action: "extract", payload: "text", selector: ".title"}
{action: "extract", payload: "text", selector: ".author"}
{action: "extract", payload: "text", selector: ".date"}
// ✅ Single eval
{action: "eval", payload: `
({
title: document.querySelector('.title').textContent,
author: document.querySelector('.author').textContent,
date: document.querySelector('.date').textContent
})
`}
```
### Reuse Browser State
```json
// ✅ Stay logged in across operations
{action: "navigate", payload: "https://app.com/login"}
// ... login ...
{action: "navigate", payload: "https://app.com/page1"}
// ... work ...
{action: "navigate", payload: "https://app.com/page2"}
// ... work ... (still logged in)
```

## SPIKE Workflow Steps
**These steps apply only to SPIKE tickets (investigation/research)**
### Step 1: Fetch and Select SPIKE Ticket
Same as standard workflow Step 1 - fetch To Do tickets and select one.
Verify it's a SPIKE by checking `issueTypeName` field.
### Step 2: Move Ticket to In Progress
Same as standard workflow Step 2.
```bash
atlassian-mcp-server_transitionJiraIssue \
cloudId="<cloud-id>" \
issueIdOrKey="PI-XXXXX" \
transition='{"id": "41"}'
```
### Step 3: Add Investigation Start Comment
```bash
atlassian-mcp-server_addCommentToJiraIssue \
cloudId="<cloud-id>" \
issueIdOrKey="PI-XXXXX" \
commentBody="Starting SPIKE investigation - will explore multiple solution approaches and document findings"
```
### Step 4: Invoke Investigate Agent
**CRITICAL: Use @investigate subagent for creative exploration**
The investigate agent has higher temperature (0.8) for creative thinking.
```bash
@investigate
Context: SPIKE ticket PI-XXXXX
Summary: <ticket summary>
Description: <ticket description>
Please investigate this problem and:
1. Explore the current codebase to understand the problem space
2. Research 3-5 different solution approaches
3. Evaluate trade-offs for each approach
4. Document findings with specific code references (file:line)
5. Recommend the best approach with justification
6. Break down into actionable implementation task(s) - typically just 1 ticket
```
The investigate agent will:
- Explore codebase thoroughly
- Research multiple solution paths (3-5 approaches)
- Consider creative/unconventional approaches
- Evaluate trade-offs objectively
- Document specific code references
- Recommend best approach with justification
- Propose implementation plan (typically 1 follow-up ticket)
### Step 5: Document Findings
Create comprehensive investigation summary in Jira ticket:
```bash
atlassian-mcp-server_addCommentToJiraIssue \
cloudId="<cloud-id>" \
issueIdOrKey="PI-XXXXX" \
commentBody="## Investigation Findings
### Problem Analysis
<summary of problem space with code references>
### Approaches Considered
1. **Approach A**: <description>
- Pros: <benefits>
- Cons: <drawbacks>
- Effort: <S/M/L/XL>
- Code: <file:line references>
2. **Approach B**: <description>
- Pros: <benefits>
- Cons: <drawbacks>
- Effort: <S/M/L/XL>
- Code: <file:line references>
3. **Approach C**: <description>
- Pros: <benefits>
- Cons: <drawbacks>
- Effort: <S/M/L/XL>
- Code: <file:line references>
[Continue for all 3-5 approaches]
### Recommendation
**Recommended Approach**: <approach name>
**Justification**: <why this is best>
**Risks**: <potential issues and mitigations>
**Confidence**: <Low/Medium/High>
### Proposed Implementation
Typically breaking this down into **1 follow-up ticket**:
**Summary**: <concise task description>
**Description**: <detailed implementation plan>
**Acceptance Criteria**:
- [ ] <criterion 1>
- [ ] <criterion 2>
- [ ] <criterion 3>
**Effort Estimate**: <S/M/L/XL>
### References
- <file:line references>
- <documentation links>
- <related tickets>
- <external resources>"
```
### Step 6: Review Findings with Developer
**CRITICAL: Get developer approval before creating tickets**
Present investigation findings and proposed follow-up ticket(s) to developer:
```
Investigation complete for PI-XXXXX.
Summary:
- Explored <N> solution approaches
- Recommend: <approach name>
- Propose: <N> follow-up ticket(s) (typically 1)
Proposed ticket:
- Summary: <task summary>
- Effort: <estimate>
Would you like me to create this ticket, or would you like to adjust the plan?
```
**Wait for developer confirmation before proceeding.**
Developer may:
- Approve ticket creation as-is
- Request modifications to task breakdown
- Request different approach be pursued
- Decide no follow-up tickets needed
- Decide to handle implementation differently
### Step 7: Create Follow-Up Tickets (With Approval)
**Only proceed after developer approves in Step 6**
Typically create just **1 follow-up ticket**. Occasionally more if investigation reveals multiple independent tasks.
```bash
atlassian-mcp-server_createJiraIssue \
cloudId="<cloud-id>" \
projectKey="<project>" \
issueTypeName="Story" \
summary="<concise task description from investigation>" \
description="## Context
From SPIKE PI-XXXXX investigation
## Problem
<problem statement>
## Recommended Approach
<approach name and description from SPIKE>
## Implementation Plan
<detailed steps>
## Acceptance Criteria

- [ ] <criterion 2>
- [ ] <criterion 3>
## Code References
- <file:line from investigation>
- <file:line from investigation>
## Related Tickets
- SPIKE: PI-XXXXX
## Effort Estimate
<S/M/L/XL from investigation>
## Additional Notes
<any important considerations from SPIKE>"
```
**Note the returned ticket number (e.g., PI-XXXXX) for linking in Step 8.**
If creating multiple tickets (rare), repeat for each task.
### Step 8: Link Follow-Up Tickets to SPIKE
```bash
atlassian-mcp-server_addCommentToJiraIssue \
cloudId="<cloud-id>" \
issueIdOrKey="PI-XXXXX" \
commentBody="## Follow-Up Ticket(s) Created
Implementation task created:
- PI-XXXXX: <task summary>
This ticket is ready for implementation using the recommended <approach name> approach."
```
If multiple tickets created, list all with their ticket numbers.
### Step 9: Move SPIKE to Done
```bash
# Get available transitions
atlassian-mcp-server_getTransitionsForJiraIssue \
cloudId="<cloud-id>" \
issueIdOrKey="PI-XXXXX"
# Transition to Done (find correct transition ID from above)
atlassian-mcp-server_transitionJiraIssue \
cloudId="<cloud-id>" \
issueIdOrKey="PI-XXXXX" \
transition='{"id": "<done-transition-id>"}'
```
### Step 10: Session Reflection
Same as standard workflow - use `learn_skill` tool with `skill_name='reflect'` to identify preventable friction.

# SPIKE Investigation Workflow
## What is a SPIKE?
A SPIKE ticket is a time-boxed research and investigation task. The goal is to explore a problem space, evaluate solution approaches, and create an actionable plan for implementation.
**SPIKE = Investigation only. No code changes.**
## Key Principles
### 1. Exploration Over Implementation
- Focus on understanding the problem deeply
- Consider multiple solution approaches (3-5)
- Don't commit to first idea
- Think creatively about alternatives
### 2. Documentation Over Code
- Document findings thoroughly
- Provide specific code references (file:line)
- Explain trade-offs objectively
- Create actionable implementation plan
### 3. Developer Approval Required
- Always review findings with developer before creating tickets
- Developer has final say on implementation approach
- Get explicit approval before creating follow-up tickets
- Typically results in just 1 follow-up ticket
### 4. No Code Changes
- ✅ Read and explore codebase
- ✅ Document findings
- ✅ Create implementation plan
- ❌ Write implementation code
- ❌ Create git worktree
- ❌ Create PR
## Investigation Process
### Phase 1: Problem Understanding
**Understand current state:**
- Read ticket description thoroughly
- Explore relevant codebase areas
- Identify constraints and dependencies
- Document current implementation
**Ask questions:**
- What problem are we solving?
- Who is affected?
- What are the constraints?
- What's the desired outcome?
### Phase 2: Approach Exploration
**Explore 3-5 different approaches:**
For each approach, document:
- **Name**: Brief descriptive name
- **Description**: How it works
- **Pros**: Benefits and advantages
- **Cons**: Drawbacks and challenges
- **Effort**: Relative complexity (S/M/L/XL)
- **Code locations**: Specific file:line references
**Think broadly:**
- Conventional approaches
- Creative/unconventional approaches
- Simple vs. complex solutions
- Short-term vs. long-term solutions
### Phase 3: Trade-off Analysis
**Evaluate objectively:**
- Implementation complexity
- Performance implications
- Maintenance burden
- Testing requirements
- Migration/rollout complexity
- Team familiarity with approach
- Long-term sustainability
**Be honest about cons:**
- Every approach has trade-offs
- Document them clearly
- Don't hide problems
### Phase 4: Recommendation
**Make clear recommendation:**
- Which approach is best
- Why it's superior to alternatives
- Key risks and mitigations
- Confidence level (Low/Medium/High)
**Justify recommendation:**
- Reference specific trade-offs
- Explain why pros outweigh cons
- Consider team context
### Phase 5: Implementation Planning
**Create actionable plan:**
- Typically breaks down into **1 follow-up ticket**
- Occasionally 2-3 if clearly independent tasks
- Never many vague tickets
**For each ticket, include:**
- Clear summary
- Detailed description
- Recommended approach
- Acceptance criteria
- Code references from investigation
- Effort estimate (S/M/L/XL)

## Example SPIKE Investigation
### Problem
Performance degradation in user search with large datasets (10k+ users)
### Approaches Considered
#### 1. Database Query Optimization
- **Description**: Add indexes, optimize JOIN queries, use query caching
- **Pros**:
- Minimal code changes
- Works with existing architecture
- Can be implemented incrementally
- **Cons**:
- Limited scalability (still hits DB for each search)
- Query complexity increases with features
- Cache invalidation complexity
- **Effort**: M
- **Code**: user_service.go:245, user_repository.go:89
#### 2. Elasticsearch Integration
- **Description**: Index users in Elasticsearch, use for all search operations
- **Pros**:
- Excellent search performance at scale
- Full-text search capabilities
- Faceted search support
- **Cons**:
- New infrastructure to maintain
- Data sync complexity
- Team learning curve
- Higher operational cost
- **Effort**: XL
- **Code**: Would be new service, interfaces at user_service.go:200
#### 3. In-Memory Cache with Background Sync
- **Description**: Maintain searchable user cache in memory, sync periodically
- **Pros**:
- Very fast search performance
- No additional infrastructure
- Simple implementation
- **Cons**:
- Memory usage on app servers
- Eventual consistency issues
- Cache warming on deploy
- Doesn't scale past single-server memory
- **Effort**: L
- **Code**: New cache_service.go, integrate at user_service.go:245
#### 4. Materialized View with Triggers
- **Description**: Database materialized view optimized for search, auto-updated via triggers
- **Pros**:
- Good performance
- Consistent data
- Minimal app code changes
- **Cons**:
- Database-specific (PostgreSQL only)
- Trigger complexity
- Harder to debug issues
- Lock contention on high write volume
- **Effort**: M
- **Code**: Migration needed, user_repository.go:89
### Recommendation
**Recommended Approach**: Database Query Optimization (#1)
**Justification**:
Given our current scale (8k users, growing ~20%/year) and team context:
- Elasticsearch is over-engineering for current needs - reaches 50k users in ~5 years
- In-memory cache has consistency issues that would affect UX
- Materialized views add database complexity our team hasn't worked with
- Query optimization addresses immediate pain point with minimal risk
- Can revisit Elasticsearch if we hit 20k+ users or need full-text features
**Risks**:
- May need to revisit in 2-3 years if growth accelerates: Monitor performance metrics, set alert at 15k users
- Won't support advanced search features: Document limitation, plan for future if needed
**Confidence**: High
### Proposed Implementation
**1 follow-up ticket**:
**Summary**: Optimize user search queries with indexes and caching
**Description**:
1. Add composite index on (last_name, first_name, email)
2. Implement Redis query cache with 5-min TTL
3. Optimize JOIN query in getUsersForSearch
4. Add performance monitoring
**Acceptance Criteria**:
- [ ] Search response time < 200ms for 95th percentile
- [ ] Database query count reduced from 3 to 1 per search
- [ ] Monitoring dashboard shows performance metrics
- [ ] Load testing validates 10k concurrent users
**Effort Estimate**: M (1-2 days)
**Code References**:
- user_service.go:245 - Main search function to optimize
- user_repository.go:89 - Database query to modify
- schema.sql:34 - Add index here

## Common Pitfalls
### ❌ Shallow Investigation
**Bad**:
- Only considers 1 obvious solution
- Vague references like "the user module"
- No trade-off analysis
**Good**:
- Explores 3-5 distinct approaches
- Specific file:line references
- Honest pros/cons for each
### ❌ Analysis Paralysis
**Bad**:
- Explores 15 different approaches
- Gets lost in theoretical possibilities
- Never makes clear recommendation
**Good**:
- Focus on 3-5 viable approaches
- Make decision based on team context
- Acknowledge uncertainty but recommend path
### ❌ Premature Implementation
**Bad**:
- Starts writing code during SPIKE
- Creates git worktree
- Implements "prototype"
**Good**:
- Investigation only
- Code reading and references
- Plan for implementation ticket
### ❌ Automatic Ticket Creation
**Bad**:
- Creates 5 tickets without developer review
- Breaks work into too many pieces
- Doesn't get approval first
**Good**:
- Proposes implementation plan
- Waits for developer approval
- Typically creates just 1 ticket
## Time-Boxing
SPIKEs should be time-boxed to prevent over-analysis:
- **Small SPIKE**: 2-4 hours
- **Medium SPIKE**: 1 day
- **Large SPIKE**: 2-3 days
If hitting time limit:
1. Document what you've learned so far
2. Document what's still unknown
3. Recommend either:
- Proceeding with current knowledge
- Extending SPIKE with specific questions
- Creating prototype SPIKE to validate approach
## Success Criteria
A successful SPIKE:
- ✅ Thoroughly explores problem space
- ✅ Considers multiple approaches (3-5)
- ✅ Provides specific code references
- ✅ Makes clear recommendation with justification
- ✅ Creates actionable plan (typically 1 ticket)
- ✅ Gets developer approval before creating tickets
- ✅ Enables confident implementation
A successful SPIKE does NOT:
- ❌ Implement the solution
- ❌ Create code changes
- ❌ Create tickets without approval
- ❌ Leave implementation plan vague
- ❌ Only explore 1 obvious solution

# Reflect
Post-session reflection to identify preventable workflow issues and propose simple, actionable improvements. Applies extreme ownership principles within circle of influence.
Analyzes completed work sessions to identify preventable workflow friction and system improvement opportunities. Focuses on issues within circle of influence that can be automatically addressed.
## When to Use This Skill
Use at end of work session when:
- Multiple authentication or permission errors occurred
- Repeated commands suggest missing setup
- Repeated commands suggest missing setup or automation
- Tooling/environment issues caused delays
- Pattern emerged that should be captured in skills/docs
- User explicitly requests reflection/retrospective

**Next Step**: Run `@optimize` to implement these improvements automatically.
```
## Analysis Process
1. **Review conversation**: Scan for error messages, repeated commands, authentication failures
2. **Check todo list**: Identify unexpected tasks added mid-session, friction points
3. **Identify patterns**: Commands repeated 3+ times, similar errors, knowledge gaps
4. **Measure friction**: Estimate time on tooling vs implementation
5. **Filter ruthlessly**: Exclude expected work and system constraints
6. **Focus on 1-3 issues**: Quality over quantity - only high-impact improvements
7. **Map to system components**: Where should each fix live?
8. **Provide structured output**: Format for optimize agent to parse and execute
## Common Preventable Patterns
**Authentication**:
- SSH keys not in agent → Add `ssh-add` to shell startup
- API tokens not set → Document in AGENTS.md setup section
- Credentials expired → Document refresh process
**Environment**:
- Dependencies missing → Add to AGENTS.md prerequisites
- Docker state issues → Document cleanup commands in CLAUDE.md
- Port conflicts → Document port usage in AGENTS.md
**Documentation**:
- Commands forgotten → Add to CLAUDE.md commands section
- Build/test commands unclear → Add to AGENTS.md build section
- Setup steps missing → Add to AGENTS.md or README
**Workflow**:
- Manual steps repeated 3+ times → Create shell alias or script
- Pattern used repeatedly → Extract to skill
- Agent behavior needs refinement → Update agent definition
**Skills**:
- Missing skill for common pattern → Create new skill
- Skill missing edge cases → Update existing skill's "Common Mistakes"
- Skill references outdated → Update examples or references
## Distinguishing Analysis from Implementation
**This skill (reflect)**: Provides analysis framework and structured findings
**Optimize agent**: Takes findings and implements changes automatically
**Division of responsibility**:
- Reflect: Identifies what needs to change and where
- Optimize: Makes the actual changes (write files, create skills, update docs)
After reflection, invoke `@optimize` with findings for automatic implementation.
## Examples
### Good Issue Identification
**Issue**: SSH authentication failed on git push operations
**Impact**: 15 minutes lost, multiple retry attempts
**Impact**: 15 minutes lost, 4 retry attempts, context switches
**Root Cause**: SSH keys not loaded in ssh-agent at session start
**Prevention**: Add `ssh-add ~/.ssh/id_ed25519` to shell startup (.zshrc/.bashrc)
**Category**: Within our control
**Target Component**: Shell config (.zshrc)
**Proposed Action**: Add `ssh-add ~/.ssh/id_ed25519` to .zshrc startup
**Priority**: High
### Pattern Worth Capturing
**Issue**: Repeatedly explaining NixOS build validation workflow
**Impact**: 10 minutes explaining same process 3 times
**Root Cause**: No skill for NixOS-specific workflows
**Target Component**: New skill
**Proposed Action**: Create `nixos-development` skill with build/test patterns
**Priority**: Medium
### Documentation Gap
**Issue**: Forgot test command, had to search through project
**Impact**: 5 minutes searching for command each time used
**Root Cause**: Test command not in AGENTS.md
**Target Component**: AGENTS.md
**Proposed Action**: Add `nix flake check` to build commands section
**Priority**: High
### Non-Issue (Don't Report)
**NOT an issue**: Test took 20 minutes to debug
**Why**: This is expected development work. Debugging tests is part of TDD workflow.
**NOT an issue**: Debugging Nix configuration took 30 minutes
**Why**: This is expected development work. Learning and debugging configs is part of NixOS development.
**NOT an issue**: Waiting 5 minutes for CI pipeline
**Why**: System constraint. Outside circle of influence.
## Analysis Process
1. **Review conversation**: Scan for error messages, repeated commands, authentication failures
2. **Check todo list**: Identify unexpected tasks added mid-session
3. **Measure friction**: Estimate time on tooling vs implementation
4. **Filter ruthlessly**: Exclude expected work and system constraints
5. **Focus on 1-3 issues**: Quality over quantity
6. **Propose concrete actions**: Specific commands, config changes, documentation updates
## Common Preventable Patterns
**Authentication**:
- SSH keys not in agent → Add to startup
- API tokens not set → Document in setup guide
- Credentials expired → Set up refresh automation
**Environment**:
- Dependencies missing → Add to README prerequisites
- Docker state issues → Document cleanup commands
- Port conflicts → Standardize port usage
**Workflow**:
- Manual steps repeated → Create shell alias/function
- Commands forgotten → Add to project CLAUDE.md
- Context switching → Improve error messages
**NOT an issue**: Waiting for large rebuild
**Why**: System constraint. Build time is inherent to Nix architecture.

## Integration with Optimize Agent
After reflection analysis:
1. Review reflection findings
2. Invoke `@optimize` to implement improvements
3. Optimize agent will:
- Update CLAUDE.md/AGENTS.md with commands/docs
- Create or update skills based on patterns
- Create shell aliases for repeated commands
- Generate git commits with changes
- Report what was implemented
This two-stage process:
- **Reflect**: Analysis and identification (passive, focused)
- **Optimize**: Implementation and automation (active, powerful)
## Success Criteria
Good reflection provides:
- 1-3 glaring preventable issues (not 10+)
- Specific actionable improvements
- Honest assessment of what's controllable
- 1-3 high-impact preventable issues (not 10+ minor ones)
- Clear mapping to system components (where to make changes)
- Specific actionable improvements (not vague suggestions)
- Honest assessment of circle of influence
- Structured format for optimize agent to parse
- Avoids suggesting we skip essential work
## Future Memory Integration
When memory/WIP tool becomes available, reflection will:
- Track recurring patterns across sessions
- Build knowledge base of improvements
- Measure effectiveness of past changes
- Detect cross-project patterns
- Prioritize based on frequency and impact
For now, git history serves as memory (search past reflection commits).
