andresnator Anki Vocab
Activation
Prepare a selectable vocabulary batch for any supplied target/native language pair. A learning path, registry, named agent, and sibling skills are optional, never required.
Inputs
Words, natural phrases, or a situation; target and native languages; optional known units and exported inventory. Ask for missing languages rather than infer a project. An explicit destination permits saving selected output; otherwise return it inline.
Method
Use common natural phrases/chunks as anchors and full situational sentences, reusing supplied familiar material when useful. For a theme, propose a small batch (up to 12 initially); explicit user scope wins.
Separate candidates from exported rows. Compare duplicate keys using target-language tag plus Unicode NFKC normalization, lowercase, and collapsed whitespace. Preserve natural display text. Only already exported anchors in the supplied inventory are duplicates; unexported candidates remain eligible. Report the limits of an absent inventory.
Preview exact five-field rows before export. Let the learner select a subset, edit/reconfirm, postpone, or save none. Export only their unchanged selection. A candidate list is not approval. Never create a second spaced-repetition card for an exported phrase without an explicit learner exception.
Format plain UTF-8, one row per card, no header or quoting:
unit;meaning;part of speech;example;native translation
The unit, gloss, and example use the target language. The last field translates the full example into the native language. Forbid semicolons, double quotes, and newlines inside fields; rephrase and preview again when meaning changes. The example must naturally contain its anchor. assets/batch-format.txt is a format example, not a language default.
Output
Return the selected batch inline or at the authorized destination, with row count, skipped exported duplicates, and proposed registry entries. The caller commits export and registry together; do not claim either from a draft. Export is separate from learner import into Anki (File > Import, separator ;) and proves no mastery. No directory discovery, sibling calls, automatic registry writes, or Anki import.
