rai pattern

Manage learned patterns. Patterns capture learnings from development — process improvements, technical discoveries, and architectural decisions.

`rai pattern add`

Add a new pattern to memory.

Argument	Description
`CONTENT`	Pattern description (required)

Flag	Short	Description
`--context`	`-c`	Context keywords (comma-separated)
`--type`	`-t`	Pattern type: `codebase`, `process`, `architecture`, `technical`. Default: `process`
`--from`	`-f`	Story/session where learned
`--scope`	`-s`	Memory scope: `global`, `project`, `personal`. Default: `personal`
`--memory-dir`	`-m`	Memory directory path (overrides scope)

# Add a process pattern
rai pattern add "HITL before commits" -c "git,workflow"

# Add a technical pattern with source
rai pattern add "Use capsys for stdout tests" -t technical -c "pytest,testing"

# Add with source reference
rai pattern add "BFS reuse across modules" -t architecture --from S2.3

`rai pattern reinforce`

Record a reinforcement signal for a pattern. Called at story-review to indicate whether a pattern was applied (1), not relevant (0), or contradicted (-1). Vote 0 (N/A) does not count toward the evaluation total.

Argument	Description
`PATTERN_ID`	Pattern ID to reinforce, e.g. `PAT-E-183` (required)

Flag	Short	Description
`--vote`	`-v`	Vote: `1` (applied), `0` (N/A), `-1` (contradicted) (required)
`--from`	`-f`	Story ID for traceability
`--scope`	`-s`	Memory scope: `global`, `project`, `personal`. Default: `project`
`--memory-dir`	`-m`	Memory directory path (overrides scope)

# Pattern was applied
rai pattern reinforce PAT-E-183 --vote 1 --from RAISE-170

# Pattern not relevant
rai pattern reinforce PAT-E-151 --vote 0 --from RAISE-170

# Pattern contradicted
rai pattern reinforce PAT-E-094 --vote -1 --from RAISE-170

`rai pattern promote`

Promote a pattern from personal scope to project scope. Moves the pattern entry from personal patterns.jsonl to project patterns.jsonl. The pattern ID is preserved.

Argument	Description
`PATTERN_ID`	Pattern ID to promote, e.g. `PAT-E-123` (required)

Flag	Short	Description
`--memory-dir`	`-m`	Memory directory path (overrides default)

rai pattern promote PAT-E-123
