    # Basal Ganglia Memory 🎯
    
    **Habit formation for AI agents.** Part of the AI Brain series.
    
    ## Status: 🚧 Under Development
    
    This skill is being developed. 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.
