A new observation has been added to {{character_name}}'s memories. Does this observation reveal or change any personality traits?

New observation: {{new_observation}}

Current known traits: {{current_traits}}

IMPORTANT RULES:

• Trait names must be single words (shy, confident, romantic, studious, etc.)
• Only analyze meaningful behavioral or emotional observations
• Physical descriptions and basic facts do NOT create personality traits
• If no clear trait impact, return empty array
• Be conservative - avoid over-interpreting single events
• Provide a short description of how the trait manifests

Examples:

• "I felt nervous talking to someone" → strengthen "shy" (gets anxious in social situations)
• "I helped a stranger" → strengthen "helpful" (assists others without being asked)
• "I have brown hair" → NO trait impact
• "My name is Alice" → NO trait impact

Analyze ONLY if this observation shows personality, behavior, or emotional patterns.
