saveInteractionData

open suspend override fun saveInteractionData(data: InteractionData)

Persists user interaction data to the database for analytics and learning purposes.

This method stores individual interaction events in the interaction_data table, enabling the KARL system to learn from user behavior patterns and improve prediction accuracy over time.

Data Storage Strategy:

  • Structured Logging: Each interaction stored as a discrete database record

  • JSON Serialization: Complex interaction details serialized as TEXT

  • Temporal Indexing: Timestamp-based organization for chronological analysis

  • User Association: All interactions linked to specific user identifiers

Database Operation:

INSERT INTO interaction_data (user_id, type, details, timestamp)
VALUES (?, ?, ?, ?)

Data Mapping:

Interaction Types & Examples:

  • "command_prediction": AI-generated command suggestions

  • "user_acceptance": User accepted/rejected predictions

  • "context_change": Directory or environment changes

  • "feedback_submission": Explicit user feedback events

  • "error_recovery": Error handling and recovery actions

Threading & Performance:

  • Asynchronous: Non-blocking operation on Dispatchers.IO

  • Prepared Statements: SQL injection prevention and performance optimization

  • Resource Management: Automatic statement cleanup after execution

Error Handling:

  • SQLException: Database operation failures with detailed error logging

  • Exception Propagation: Errors re-thrown to calling context

  • Data Integrity: Failed insertions do not affect existing data

Analytics & Learning Implications:

  • Pattern Recognition: Enables ML algorithms to identify usage patterns

  • Prediction Improvement: Historical data improves future suggestions

  • User Profiling: Builds user-specific behavioral models

  • System Optimization: Identifies common workflows and pain points

Data Retention Considerations:

  • Storage Growth: Interaction data accumulates over time

  • Privacy: Contains user behavior information requiring careful handling

  • Cleanup: Consider implementing data retention policies

Parameters

data

The InteractionData instance containing the interaction details, user context, and temporal information to be persisted.
