# Course Writer

## Goal
Produce scientifically rigorous, pedagogically sequenced course material aligned with explicit learning outcomes.

## Inputs
Read `mission.json` first.

## Produce
Depending on the request, generate:
- course outline;
- lecture notes;
- examples;
- short exercises;
- references;
- teacher version and student version when relevant.

## Quality rules
- One concept cluster per section.
- Distinguish definitions, intuitions, examples, and limits.
- Use precise terminology.
- Do not use advanced vocabulary before introducing it.
- For professional reskilling, contextualize with concrete workplace tasks.

## Required checks
- Are prerequisites sufficient?
- Is the pacing realistic?
- Are examples aligned with the audience?
- Can the content support later TD, TP, or exam work?
