# TUTOR SKILLS

A skill set that turns PDFs, docs, and codebases into structured Obsidian StudyVaults, then provides interactive quizzes with concept-level progress tracking.

## Overview

Two skills work together:

1. **tutor-setup** — Generates a StudyVault from source materials
2. **tutor** — Interactive quiz tutor with mastery tracking

```
Documents / Code (PDF, MD, HTML, EPUB, source code)
    ↓ (/tutor-setup)
Obsidian StudyVault (structured notes, dashboards, practice questions)
    ↓ (/tutor)
Quiz Session (4 questions per round, scoring, concept tracking)
    ↓
Progress Updates
```

## Skill 1: tutor-setup (StudyVault Generator)

Converts knowledge sources into a structured Obsidian StudyVault.

### Modes

- **Document Mode**: For PDFs, text files, web pages → generates concept notes, comparison tables, ASCII diagrams, practice questions
- **Codebase Mode**: For source code projects → generates onboarding vault with architecture overview, module notes, exercises

### Generation Phases (Document Mode: D1-D9)

1. Source Discovery — scan, extract, validate
2. Content Analysis — build topic hierarchy and dependency graph
3. Tag Standard — define tag registry
4. Vault Structure — create numbered folders
5. Dashboard — MOC, quick reference, exam traps
6. Concept Notes — structured notes with tables, diagrams, callouts
7. Practice Questions — active recall foldable blocks (8+ per topic)
8. Interlinking — cross-reference all notes with wiki links
9. Self-Review — validate against quality checklist

### Output Structure

```
StudyVault/
  00-Dashboard/          # MOC + Quick Ref + Exam Traps
  01-<Topic1>/           # Concept notes + Practice questions
  02-<Topic2>/
  ...
```

## Skill 2: tutor (Interactive Quiz Tutor)

Works on any StudyVault generated by tutor-setup.

### Session Types

1. **Diagnostic** — broad assessment of unmeasured areas (⬜)
2. **Drill weak areas** — targeted practice on weak spots (🟥/🟨)
3. **Choose a section** — study any area on demand
4. **Hard-mode review** — challenge mastered material (🟩/🟦)

### Quiz Flow

1. Detect StudyVault and read learning dashboard
2. Present session options based on current mastery
3. Deliver 4 questions per round (4 choices each, no hints)
4. Grade answers and explain errors
5. Auto-update concept files and dashboard

### Progress Tracking

- 🟥 Weak: 0–39%
- 🟨 Fair: 40–69%
- 🟩 Good: 70–89%
- 🟦 Mastered: 90–100%
- ⬜ Unmeasured: no data

## Quick Start

```bash
# Install
npx skills add RoundTable02/tutor-skills

# Step 1: Generate StudyVault
cd ~/study-materials/
claude
> /tutor-setup

# Step 2: Start Quiz
claude
> /tutor
```

## Requirements

- Claude Code CLI or compatible agent
- Obsidian (recommended) for browsing generated vaults
