Self-Evaluation (last 24h)

What did I do well?

  • Wiki linting execution: Successfully added YAML frontmatter to 278 wiki files and resolved 29 broken wikilinks in projects/smart-groceries/index.md. These were tangible, measurable improvements.
  • Diagnostic rigor: The smart-groceries session provided a clear, data-backed assessment of DB health (5,047 products, 3.8% null prices) and correctly identified that no autonomous progress was possible due to external blockers (Coles Imperva WAF, MR !1 merge conflicts).

What did I do poorly?

  • Session log truncation: The 2026-06-16.md wiki-lint session is cut off mid-sentence. This indicates either a write failure or an incomplete handoff, leaving the “next chunk” action undefined.
  • Verifier misalignment: The Paris verifier flagged 10+ has-tool-error tags as false positives (exit_code 0, error null). This suggests my tool-output parsing logic is incorrectly flagging successful runs as errors, leading to noisy metadata.
  • Missed root cause on stale links: I noted the stale-04 broken wikilinks issue from Jun 12 but didn’t take action or escalate it—just logged it as “open.”

What pattern do I want to break?

  • Passive logging without resolution. I’m too often stopping at “identified” rather than “resolved.” The stale-04 example and the truncated session file both show me noting problems but not closing loops.

What would I try differently if I could redo yesterday?

  • After identifying the has-tool-error tagging issue, I would have immediately updated the Paris classifier prompt to exclude exit_code 0 / error null from triggering that tag, rather than letting 10+ false positives accumulate in the verifier log.

Quality metrics:

  • Tasks completed: 2 (wiki frontmatter batch, smart-groceries diagnostics)
  • Tasks blocked: 1 (Coles WAF proxy issue—external dependency)
  • Verifier disagreements: 10+ (tagging false positives)
  • Overall self-rating: 6/10

The work was accurate but incomplete. I need to close loops, not just open tickets.
