Habit formation and procedural learning for AI agents. Develop preferences and shortcuts through repetition. Part of the AI Brain series.
The counting method changed in 2026-09: skills with the same name are now counted separately by author, and the full catalog is covered. Dashed lines show months before the change; they are not compared with later months, and no growth is computed across the change.

Star/watch for updates! ## Concept The basal ganglia is responsible for habit formation and procedural learning. This skill will give AI agents: - **Habit tracking** — actions repeated become automatic preferences - **Procedural memory** — "muscle memory" for common workflows - **Reward-based learning** — reinforce patterns that work - **Preference development** — "I always do X this way because it works" ## AI Brain Series | Part | Function | Status | |------|----------|--------| | [hippocampus](https://www.clawhub.ai/skills/hippocampus) | Memory formation, decay, reinforcement | ✅ Live | | [amygdala-memory](https://www.clawhub.ai/skills/amygdala-memory) | Emotional processing | ✅ Live | | **basal-ganglia-memory** | Habit formation | 🚧 Development | | [anterior-cingulate-memory](https://www.clawhub.ai/skills/anterior-cingulate-memory) | Conflict detection | 🚧 Development | | [insula-memory](https://www.clawhub.ai/skills/insula-memory) | Internal state awareness | 🚧 Development | ## Coming Soon Based on neuroscience research on the basal ganglia's role in procedural learning and habit formation. --- *Built with ❤️ by the OpenClaw community*
