## When to use it

Use a question or learning note when you want to remember why you made a change and what the result taught you. These fields are optional. They are not an AI chat or a requirement to run a task.

In the selected experiment's **Learning note**, a useful question might be: “Will increasing only target height change the final distance?” After the attempt, write what you observed and which measurement is missing. A note such as “the higher goal took longer in these two attempts” is an interpretation of selected evidence, not a replacement for either recorded outcome.

## Steps

1. In Learning note, expand Question for this attempt. Describe what you want to find out, what you expect and what changed.
2. Write what you learned or want to try next. Draft context stays with the draft. The original operation binds its context to its result.
3. When reviewing an attempt, edit your interpretation or add the suggested learning note if useful. Review any context carried from an earlier attempt.
4. Use Keep, reject or inconclusive, and why? and the next-question field to record your decision.

## What to expect

Questions and notes remain private on this device in the selected computer’s workspace. Your interpretation stays separate from the Mac’s recorded outcome. Editing notes does not start another attempt.

## If something goes wrong

- If you see Earlier unassigned note, inspect it and choose Copy into this note only when it belongs here. Roboty does not silently assign legacy text to a run.
- If context was carried from an earlier result, update the question and changed factor for the current attempt.
- To include selected results’ notes in a private experiment brief, explicitly opt in and review the exact text. Unsent draft notes are excluded.
