Closes #6051. Reported failure mode: agent migrated to WSL2, browser launch failed because Playwright wasn't installed yet. Background reviewer captured the failure as a durable skill (`browser-tool-launch-issue`) and the agent kept refusing the browser tool for weeks after Playwright was installed and verified working. Negative claims also propagated into unrelated skills ("browser tools do not work", "cannot use Y from execute_code"). Root cause: `_SKILL_REVIEW_PROMPT` and `_COMBINED_REVIEW_PROMPT` both lean hard on "be active, save things, a pass that does nothing is a missed learning opportunity." Neither distinguished durable knowledge from transient environment state. The reviewer was doing what it was told. Fix at the write site — both prompts now carry a "Do NOT capture" section calling out: • Environment-dependent failures (missing binaries, fresh-install errors, post-migration path mismatches, 'command not found', unconfigured credentials, uninstalled packages) • Negative claims about tools or features ("X does not work") that harden into self-cited refusals • Session-specific transient errors that resolved before the conversation ended • One-off task narratives ("summarize today's market", "analyze this PR") — also addresses the #12812 / #4538 family Plus a positive-reframing line: when a tool fails because of setup state, capture the FIX (install command, config step, env var) under an existing setup/troubleshooting skill — never "this tool doesn't work" as a standalone constraint. Targeted tests: 24/24 passing in tests/run_agent/test_review_prompt_class_first.py (2 new + all existing review-prompt assertions). Substring-based checks so future prompt edits don't false-fail. |
