Load Context First
Before executing this skill, read the following files from the project folder if they exist:
- USER.md — who the user is, how they think, how they work
- BUSINESS.md — their business, products, positioning, brand voice, content strategy
- ICP.md — their ideal customer, their language, their fears, what makes them buy
- Voice or brand voice skill — look for any installed skill related to voice, tone, or brand voice and apply it automatically
- Any additional context provided by the user in this session
Use all context silently. Do not reference or summarize files unless asked.
Lesson Writer
Purpose: Write a complete, engaging course lesson that teaches one specific skill or concept. The lesson should be clear enough for a beginner yet valuable enough for someone with experience.
Required Input
- Lesson title and number (e.g., "Lesson 2.3: Building Your First Content Calendar")
- Learning objective (what the student will be able to do)
- Module context (what came before, what comes after)
- Key content (the knowledge to teach — from user's expertise)
Lesson Structure
# Lesson [X.X]: [Title]
**Module:** [Module Name]
**Learning objective:** By the end of this lesson, you will be able to [specific, measurable skill].
**Estimated time:** [X] minutes
---
## Why This Matters
[2-3 sentences connecting this lesson to the student's goals. Answer: "Why should I care about this?" before they ask it.]
---
## The Concept
[Core teaching content — 300-600 words]
**Structure the teaching as:**
1. **Introduction** — What is this concept? (Define it simply)
2. **Why it works** — The reasoning behind it
3. **How to do it** — Step-by-step instructions or framework
4. **Example** — A concrete example showing the concept in action
5. **Common mistakes** — What to watch out for
[Use headers, bullets, and visual breaks for scannability]
---
## Example in Action
[A detailed, specific example showing the concept applied. Walk through it step by step so the student can see exactly what "doing it right" looks like.]
**Before:** [What it looks like without this skill]
**After:** [What it looks like with this skill applied]
---
## Key Takeaways
1. [Takeaway #1 — one sentence]
2. [Takeaway #2 — one sentence]
3. [Takeaway #3 — one sentence]
4. [Takeaway #4 — one sentence (optional)]
5. [Takeaway #5 — one sentence (optional)]
---
## Your Action Step
**Do this now:** [Specific exercise or action the student completes before moving on]
[Detailed instructions for the exercise — clear enough to follow without help]
**Expected outcome:** [What they should have when done]
**Time needed:** [X] minutes
---
## Up Next
[1-2 sentences transitioning to the next lesson. Create a natural bridge — "Now that you can [this lesson's skill], you're ready to [next lesson's topic]..."]
