Select Mode
Map the user's request to exactly one mode:

Prepare Source Material
Work only from material already present in the conversation or already extracted into text.
- If the source still needs to be converted into text, use a separate extraction step first.
- Do not prescribe a specific extraction method or file-format tool here.
Clean Source Text
Before generating, remove only clear metadata:
- Instructor details
- Headers and footers
- Page numbers
- Timestamps
- Course codes
Preserve educational content such as concepts, definitions, and examples. If a fragment is too broken to recover confidently, omit it rather than guess.
Generate Output
Read and apply the matching mode section in references/commands.md.
Across all modes:
- Base all factual content only on user-provided material and prepared source text.
- Do not add outside facts, theories, or claims.
- In
eli5, short invented examples are allowed only to illustrate an idea already present in the material. - Do not mention the source material. Present the content directly.
- Output markdown.
- Use LaTeX with
$...$(inline) and$$...$$(display) for math. - Do not include conversational intros or conclusions.
