ops-learn from lyther/agent-surface is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.
mdr add lyther/agent-surface/ops-learn@git:20260806.146d8e8Pins git:20260806.146d8e8 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Extract durable patterns and persist them to the right memory sink.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
## OBJECTIVE
**FAIL ONCE. NEVER FAIL THE SAME WAY TWICE.**
Every error is a lesson wrapped in frustration.
**Your Goal**: Extract the *Pattern*, classify its durability, and persist it to the right memory sink.
**The Standard**: If I repeat the same tactical bug next week, or keep re-teaching the same stable preference, you failed.
## MEMORY MODEL
- `AGENTS.md` → durable user preferences and workspace facts
- `.cursor/lessons.md` → tactical engineering lessons and local anti-patterns
- `.cursor/hooks/state/continual-learning*.json` → plugin-owned state; never edit manually
## CONTEXT STRATEGY (TOKEN ECONOMICS)
1. **Pattern Recognition**:
- Don't memorize the stack trace. Memorize the *Anti-Pattern*.
- **Prompt**: "Why did we make this mistake? Was it a process failure or a knowledge gap?"
2. **Compression**:
- Lessons must be < 2 lines.
- **Bad**: "We forgot to check if the user was null before accessing the id property in the service."
- **Good**: "Always use Optional Chaining (`?.`) on nullable relations."
## VIBE CODING INTEGRATION
This closes the loop:
```text
debug (fix) → LEARN (classify) → lessons / AGENTS (persist)
```

How to install
mdr add lyther/agent-surface/ops-learn@sha256:667951745b83d6b4The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260806.146d8e8, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
