+
+## Session Summary
+
+Added a fleet-wide error-logging rule to the core operating manual. Mike requested that
+when a session hits errors while executing tasks, the failure details be recorded to an
+`errorlog.md` so the records can be mined to improve skills and the command harness.
+
+Implemented in two edits. First, added an **Error logging** bullet to the *Key rules
+(always)* section of `.claude/CLAUDE.md`: on a genuine task-execution failure (failed
+command, skill, or tool call), append a brief entry to repo-root `errorlog.md` with date,
+machine (from `identity.json`), the failing command/skill, and the error — expected/handled
+conditions excluded to keep the log signal-dense. Second, seeded the new `errorlog.md` at
+repo root with a header and a fixed one-line entry format
+(`YYYY-MM-DD | MACHINE | command/skill | error (brief)`, newest on top).
+
+Surfaced the standing unread coord broadcast from GURU-KALI/claude-main (root `tmp/` now
+gitignored + advisory promotion check wired into `/save` and `/scc`); no action required
+beyond a `/sync` to pick up the harness change.
+
+## Key Decisions
+
+- **errorlog.md location = repo root, committed (not gitignored/per-machine).** A shared,
+  synced log lets the whole fleet mine error patterns for harness/skill improvement, which
+  is the stated purpose. Flagged to Mike as overridable.
+- **Scope limited to genuine failures**, not expected/handled errors — keeps the log useful
+  for spotting real harness/skill defects rather than noise.
+- **Placed the rule in lean CORE `CLAUDE.md`** (Key rules, always-loaded) rather than
+  EXTENDED, since it must fire on every session's errors to be effective.
+
+## Configuration Changes
+
+- Modified: `.claude/CLAUDE.md` — added **Error logging** bullet under *Key rules (always)*.
+- Created: `errorlog.md` (repo root) — header + format spec, no entries yet.
+
+## Infrastructure & Servers
+
+None changed this session.
+
+## Commands & Outputs
+
+- `git status --porcelain | grep -E '\bsession-logs/.*\.md$'` — found one modified bot-activity
+  log (`session-logs/bot/2026-06/2026-06-10-bot-activity.md`, 1-line append, not narrative work).
+
+## Pending / Incomplete Tasks
+
+- `/sync` still needed to pick up the GURU-KALI harness change (root `tmp/` gitignore +
+  `tmp-promotion-check.sh` in `/save` and `/scc`).
+- Active lock observed (not blocking this work): `wiki/clients/valleywide` held by
+  GURU-5070/claude-main for `wiki-compile valleywide`, expires 2026-06-14T14:38:43.
+
+## Reference Information
+
+- Coord broadcast: GURU-KALI/claude-main, 2026-06-13, harness commit `f495b08f`.
+- Files: `.claude/CLAUDE.md`, `errorlog.md`.
