Episode Start

Purpose

Steps

1. Understand the task: Parse the task description and identify:
   • Task type (implementation, debugging, refactoring, testing)
   • Domain (storage, patterns, retrieval, testing, etc.)
   • Language context (Rust/Tokio/async patterns)
2. Prepare TaskContext: Ensure you have:

   • language

     : "rust"

   • domain

     : One of [storage, patterns, retrieval, embedding, testing, ci]

   • tags

     : Array of relevant tags (e.g., ["turso", "async", "tokio"])
3. Create episode: Call

   SelfLearningMemory::start_episode(task_description, context)

   • Task description should be clear and concise (1-2 sentences)
   • Include relevant context from the user's request
4. Store episode_id: Keep the episode ID for logging subsequent steps
5. Initialize step logging: Prepare to log execution steps with:
   • Tool used
   • Action taken
   • Latency/tokens (if applicable)
   • Success status
   • Observations

Storage Requirements

• Persist to Turso (durable storage)
• Cache in redb (fast access)
• Store context as JSON blob

Example

let context = TaskContext {
    language: "rust".to_string(),
    domain: "storage".to_string(),
    tags: vec!["turso".to_string(), "async".to_string()],
};

let episode_id = memory
    .start_episode(
        "Implement async batch pattern updates",
        context
    )
    .await?;

Notes

• Always validate that both Turso and redb connections are healthy
• Use anyhow::Result for error handling
• Log any initialization failures with context
