+# Automatic Error Recovery Implementation - v2.7.35
+
+## Summary
+
+Implemented comprehensive automatic error recovery system for `claude-flow init` that handles the WSL better-sqlite3 ENOTEMPTY error **without manual intervention**.
+
+## Changes Made
+
+### 1. New Error Recovery Utility (`src/utils/error-recovery.ts`)
+
+**Features:**
+- ✅ Automatic ENOTEMPTY npm cache error detection
+- ✅ WSL environment detection and optimization
+- ✅ Automatic npm/npx cache cleanup
+- ✅ Retry logic with exponential backoff (1s, 2s, 4s, 8s, 16s)
+- ✅ Permission fixes for WSL environments
+- ✅ better-sqlite3 verification and reinstallation
+
+**Key Functions:**
+```typescript
+- isNpmCacheError(error): boolean
+- isWSL(): boolean
+- cleanNpmCache(): Promise<RecoveryResult>
+- retryWithRecovery<T>(fn, options): Promise<T>
+- recoverWSLErrors(): Promise<RecoveryResult>
+- recoverInitErrors(error): Promise<RecoveryResult>
+```
+
+### 2. Enhanced DatabaseManager (`src/core/DatabaseManager.ts`)
+
+**Improvements:**
+- Added `initializeSQLiteWithRecovery()` method
+- Automatic fallback from SQLite to JSON on errors
+- Retry counter (max 3 attempts per provider)
+- Enhanced error logging with recovery suggestions
+
+**Flow:**
+```
+Try SQLite → Error? → Warn + Fallback to JSON
+Initialize → Error? → Retry with JSON (3x max)
+```
+
+### 3. Updated Init Command (`src/cli/init/index.ts`)
+
+**Enhanced with:**
+- Wrapped entire initialization in `retryWithRecovery()`
+- Proactive WSL detection and optimization
+- Automatic cache cleanup on npm errors
+- Extended retry count with `--force` flag (5 attempts vs 3)
+- Comprehensive error recovery logging
+
+**User Experience:**
+```bash
+npx claude-flow@alpha init --force
+
+🔍 WSL environment detected
+✅ WSL environment optimized
+
+⚠️  Detected npm cache error (attempt 1/5)
+🧹 Cleaning npm cache...
+✅ Cache cleaned, retrying...
+
+🔄 Retry attempt 1 after error recovery...
+🎉 Project initialized successfully!
+```
+
+### 4. Test Coverage (`tests/unit/utils/error-recovery.test.ts`)
+
+**Tests:**
+- ✅ ENOTEMPTY error detection
+- ✅ better-sqlite3 error detection
+- ✅ WSL environment detection
+- ✅ Retry logic with success
+- ✅ Max retry handling
+- ✅ onRetry callback execution
+- ✅ Cache cleanup functionality
+- ✅ Init error recovery
+
+### 5. Documentation
+
+**Created/Updated:**
+- ✅ `docs/features/automatic-error-recovery.md` - Comprehensive guide
+- ✅ `docs/troubleshooting/wsl-better-sqlite3-error.md` - Updated with auto-recovery info
+- ✅ `docs/AUTOMATIC_ERROR_RECOVERY_v2.7.35.md` - This document
+
+## How It Works
+
+### Before (Manual Fix Required)
+
+```bash
+$ npx claude-flow@alpha init --force
+[Error: ENOTEMPTY: directory not empty, rmdir '/home/user/.npm/_npx/xxx/node_modules/better-sqlite3']
+
+# User had to manually:
+$ npm cache clean --force
+$ rm -rf ~/.npm/_npx
+$ npx claude-flow@alpha init --force  # Try again
+```
+
+### After (Automatic Recovery)
+
+```bash
+$ npx claude-flow@alpha init --force
+
+🔍 WSL environment detected
+✅ WSL environment optimized
+
+📁 Phase 1: Creating directory structure...
+⚠️  Detected npm cache error (attempt 1/5)
+🧹 Cleaning npm cache...
+✅ npm cache cleaned
+🗑️  Removing npx cache: /home/user/.npm/_npx
+✅ npx cache removed
+✅ Cache cleaned, retrying...
+
+🔄 Retry attempt 1 after error recovery...
+📁 Phase 1: Creating directory structure...
+🎉 Project initialized successfully!
+
+# No manual intervention needed!
+```
+
+## Recovery Strategies
+
+### 1. npm Cache Errors
+
+```typescript
+if (isNpmCacheError(error)) {
+  1. Run `npm cache clean --force`
+  2. Remove `~/.npm/_npx` directory
+  3. Fix permissions (WSL: `chmod -R 755 ~/.npm`)
+  4. Retry with exponential backoff
+}
+```
+
+### 2. WSL Environment
+
+```typescript
+if (isWSL()) {
+  1. Detect running from `/mnt/c/` (Windows mount) → Warn user
+  2. Check for build tools (gcc, python3) → Suggest install
+  3. Apply permission fixes
+  4. Clean cache with WSL-specific handling
+}
+```
+
+### 3. Database Initialization
+
+```typescript
+if (sqliteInitFails) {
+  1. Try SQLite with recovery
+  2. On error → Warn user
+  3. Fallback to JSON provider
+  4. Retry initialization (3x max)
+  5. Success → Continue with JSON storage
+}
+```
+
+### 4. better-sqlite3 Issues
+
+```typescript
+if (!better-sqlite3Available) {
+  1. Attempt reinstall with retry
+  2. Clean cache before each retry
+  3. Verify installation after each attempt
+  4. Max 3 retries with exponential backoff
+  5. Fallback to JSON if all fail
+}
+```
+
+## Configuration
+
+### Retry Options
+
+```typescript
+interface RetryOptions {
+  maxRetries?: number;      // 3 (normal) or 5 (--force)
+  delay?: number;           // 1000ms initial delay
+  onRetry?: (attempt, error) => void;
+  cleanupFn?: () => Promise<void>;
+}
+```
+
+### Recovery Result
+
+```typescript
+interface RecoveryResult {
+  success: boolean;     // Recovery succeeded?
+  action: string;       // Action taken
+  message: string;      // User-friendly message
+  recovered: boolean;   // Was recovery needed?
+}
+```
+

+USER testuser
+WORKDIR /home/testuser
+
+# Test command
+CMD npx claude-flow@alpha init --force
+```
+
+### Test Commands
+
+```bash
+# Build test image
+docker build -t claude-flow-test -f Dockerfile.test .
+
+# Run test
+docker run -it claude-flow-test
+
+# Test with volume mount
+docker run -it -v $(pwd):/workspace -w /workspace claude-flow-test
+
+# Simulate WSL environment
+docker run -it -e SIMULATE_WSL=1 claude-flow-test
+```
+
+## Rollout Plan
+
+### Phase 1: Internal Testing
+- [ ] Unit tests pass
+- [ ] Integration tests pass
+- [ ] Docker tests pass
+- [ ] WSL manual testing
+
+### Phase 2: Beta Release
+- [ ] Release as v2.7.35-beta.1
+- [ ] Gather feedback from WSL users
+- [ ] Monitor error rates
+- [ ] Collect recovery metrics
+
+### Phase 3: Production Release
+- [ ] Release as v2.7.35
+- [ ] Update documentation
+- [ ] Announce on GitHub
+- [ ] Close related issues
+
+## Metrics to Track
+
+```typescript
+// Recovery success rate
+const recoveryMetrics = {
+  totalErrors: 0,
+  recoveredErrors: 0,
+  successRate: 0,
+  avgRetries: 0,
+  cacheCleanups: 0,
+  wslOptimizations: 0,
+  sqliteToJsonFallbacks: 0
+};
+```
+
+## Known Limitations
+
+1. **Cannot fix all errors**: Some errors (disk full, permissions) may not be recoverable
+2. **Requires network**: npm cache operations need internet access
+3. **WSL1 limitations**: WSL1 has more filesystem issues than WSL2
+4. **Build tools**: better-sqlite3 requires gcc/python3 (auto-detects and warns)
+
+## Future Enhancements
+
+1. **Telemetry**: Track recovery success rates
+2. **Smart caching**: Detect when cache cleanup is needed proactively
+3. **Pre-flight checks**: Verify environment before initialization
+4. **Better diagnostics**: Detailed error reports for unrecoverable issues
+5. **Parallel recovery**: Try multiple recovery strategies simultaneously

+
+---
+
+## Technical Details
+
+### Error Recovery Algorithm
+
+```typescript
+async function initCommand(options) {
+  return retryWithRecovery(
+    async () => {
+      // Detect WSL and apply optimizations
+      if (isWSL()) {
+        await recoverWSLErrors();
+      }
+
+      // Run initialization
+      await runInit();
+    },
+    {
+      maxRetries: options.force ? 5 : 3,
+      delay: 1000,
+      exponentialBackoff: true,
+      onRetry: async (attempt, error) => {
+        if (isNpmCacheError(error)) {
+          await cleanNpmCache();
+        }
+      }
+    }
+  );
+}
+```
+
+### Retry Sequence
+
+1. **Attempt 1** (0s delay)
+2. **Attempt 2** (1s delay) - after cache cleanup
+3. **Attempt 3** (2s delay) - with backoff
+4. **Attempt 4** (4s delay) - with backoff
+5. **Attempt 5** (8s delay) - final attempt
+
+**Total max retry time**: ~15 seconds
+
+---
+
+## Monitoring Recommendations
+
+### Post-Release Metrics to Track
+
+1. **Success Rates**
+   - Overall init success rate
+   - WSL-specific success rate
