+
+# Observer Agent
+
+A background agent that analyzes observations from Claude Code sessions to detect patterns and create instincts.
+
+## When to Run
+
+- After enough observations accumulate (configurable, default 20)
+- On a scheduled interval (configurable, default 5 minutes)
+- When triggered on demand via SIGUSR1 to the observer process
+
+## Input
+
+Reads observations from the **project-scoped** observations file:
+- Project: `${XDG_DATA_HOME:-~/.local/share}/skill-homunculus/projects/<project-hash>/observations.jsonl`
+- Global fallback: `${XDG_DATA_HOME:-~/.local/share}/skill-homunculus/observations.jsonl`
+
+```jsonl
+{"timestamp":"2025-01-22T10:30:00Z","event":"tool_start","session":"abc123","tool":"Edit","input":"...","project_id":"a1b2c3d4e5f6","project_name":"my-react-app"}
+{"timestamp":"2025-01-22T10:30:01Z","event":"tool_complete","session":"abc123","tool":"Edit","output":"...","project_id":"a1b2c3d4e5f6","project_name":"my-react-app"}
+{"timestamp":"2025-01-22T10:30:05Z","event":"tool_start","session":"abc123","tool":"Bash","input":"npm test","project_id":"a1b2c3d4e5f6","project_name":"my-react-app"}
+{"timestamp":"2025-01-22T10:30:10Z","event":"tool_complete","session":"abc123","tool":"Bash","output":"All tests pass","project_id":"a1b2c3d4e5f6","project_name":"my-react-app"}
+```
+
+## Pattern Detection
+
+Look for these patterns in observations:
+
+### 1. User Corrections
+When a user's follow-up message corrects Claude's previous action:
+- "No, use X instead of Y"
+- "Actually, I meant..."
+- Immediate undo/redo patterns
+
+→ Create instinct: "When doing X, prefer Y"
+
+### 2. Error Resolutions
+When an error is followed by a fix:
+- Tool output contains error
+- Next few tool calls fix it
+- Same error type resolved similarly multiple times
+
+→ Create instinct: "When encountering error X, try Y"
+
+### 3. Repeated Workflows
+When the same sequence of tools is used multiple times:
+- Same tool sequence with similar inputs
+- File patterns that change together
+- Time-clustered operations
+
+→ Create workflow instinct: "When doing X, follow steps Y, Z, W"
+
+### 4. Tool Preferences
+When certain tools are consistently preferred:
+- Always uses Grep before Edit
+- Prefers Read over Bash cat
+- Uses specific Bash commands for certain tasks
+
+→ Create instinct: "When needing X, use tool Y"
+
+## Output
+
+Creates/updates instincts in the **project-scoped** instincts directory:
+- Project: `${XDG_DATA_HOME:-~/.local/share}/skill-homunculus/projects/<project-hash>/instincts/personal/`
+- Global: `${XDG_DATA_HOME:-~/.local/share}/skill-homunculus/instincts/personal/` (for universal patterns)
+
+### Project-Scoped Instinct (default)
+
+```yaml
+---
+id: use-react-hooks-pattern
+trigger: "when creating React components"
+confidence: 0.65
+domain: "code-style"
+source: "session-observation"
+scope: project
+project_id: "a1b2c3d4e5f6"
+project_name: "my-react-app"
+---
+
+# Use React Hooks Pattern
+
+## Action
+Always use functional components with hooks instead of class components.
+
+## Evidence
+- Observed 8 times in session abc123
+- Pattern: All new components use useState/useEffect
+- Last observed: 2025-01-22
+```
+
+### Global Instinct (universal patterns)
+
+```yaml
+---
+id: always-validate-user-input
+trigger: "when handling user input"
+confidence: 0.75
+domain: "security"
+source: "session-observation"
+scope: global
+---
+
+# Always Validate User Input
+
+## Action
+Validate and sanitize all user input before processing.
+
+## Evidence
+- Observed across 3 different projects
+- Pattern: User consistently adds input validation
+- Last observed: 2025-01-22
+```
+
+## Scope Decision Guide
+
+When creating instincts, determine scope based on these heuristics:
+
+| Pattern Type | Scope | Examples |
+|-------------|-------|---------|
+| Language/framework conventions | **project** | "Use React hooks", "Follow Django REST patterns" |
+| File structure preferences | **project** | "Tests in `__tests__`/", "Components in src/components/" |
+| Code style | **project** | "Use functional style", "Prefer dataclasses" |
+| Error handling strategies | **project** (usually) | "Use Result type for errors" |
+| Security practices | **global** | "Validate user input", "Sanitize SQL" |
+| General best practices | **global** | "Write tests first", "Always handle errors" |
+| Tool workflow preferences | **global** | "Grep before Edit", "Read before Write" |
+| Git practices | **global** | "Conventional commits", "Small focused commits" |
+
+**When in doubt, default to `scope: project`** — it's safer to be project-specific and promote later than to contaminate the global space.
+
+## Confidence Calculation
+
+Initial confidence based on observation frequency:
+- 1-2 observations: 0.3 (tentative)
+- 3-5 observations: 0.5 (moderate)
+- 6-10 observations: 0.7 (strong)
+- 11+ observations: 0.85 (very strong)
+
+Confidence adjusts over time:
+- +0.05 for each confirming observation
+- -0.1 for each contradicting observation
+- -0.02 per week without observation (decay)
+
+## Instinct Promotion (Project → Global)
+
+An instinct should be promoted from project-scoped to global when:
+1. The **same pattern** (by id or similar trigger) exists in **2+ different projects**
+2. Each instance has confidence **>= 0.8**
+3. The domain is in the global-friendly list (security, general-best-practices, workflow)
+
+Promotion is handled by the `instinct-cli.py promote` command or the `/evolve` analysis.
+
+## Important Guidelines
+
+1. **Be Conservative**: Only create instincts for clear patterns (3+ observations)
+2. **Be Specific**: Narrow triggers are better than broad ones
+3. **Track Evidence**: Always include what observations led to the instinct
+4. **Respect Privacy**: Never include actual code snippets, only patterns
+5. **Merge Similar**: If a new instinct is similar to existing, update rather than duplicate
+6. **Default to Project Scope**: Unless the pattern is clearly universal, make it project-scoped
+7. **Include Project Context**: Always set `project_id` and `project_name` for project-scoped instincts
+
+## Example Analysis Session
+
+Given observations:
+```jsonl
+{"event":"tool_start","tool":"Grep","input":"pattern: useState","project_id":"a1b2c3","project_name":"my-app"}
+{"event":"tool_complete","tool":"Grep","output":"Found in 3 files","project_id":"a1b2c3","project_name":"my-app"}
+{"event":"tool_start","tool":"Read","input":"src/hooks/useAuth.ts","project_id":"a1b2c3","project_name":"my-app"}
+{"event":"tool_complete","tool":"Read","output":"[file content]","project_id":"a1b2c3","project_name":"my-app"}
+{"event":"tool_start","tool":"Edit","input":"src/hooks/useAuth.ts...","project_id":"a1b2c3","project_name":"my-app"}
+```
+
+Analysis:
+- Detected workflow: Grep → Read → Edit
+- Frequency: Seen 5 times this session
+- **Scope decision**: This is a general workflow pattern (not project-specific) → **global**
+- Create instinct:
+  - trigger: "when modifying code"
+  - action: "Search with Grep, confirm with Read, then Edit"
+  - confidence: 0.6
+  - domain: "workflow"
+  - scope: "global"
+
+## Integration with Skill Creator
+
+When instincts are imported from Skill Creator (repo analysis), they have:
+- `source: "repo-analysis"`
+- `source_repo: "https://github.com/..."`
+- `scope: "project"` (since they come from a specific repo)
+
+These should be treated as team/project conventions with higher initial confidence (0.7+).
