Review Plan

Study Plan (review-plan)

Turn "I want to study" into an executable schedule. The core is goal breakdown + time allocation + regular review, so the plan doesn't become just a pretty table.

Triggers

• The user wants a "study plan / review schedule / exam-cram / what to study each week"
• The user says "I'm short on time, how should I arrange it" / "how do I review for finals"
• The user wants to build a long-term study habit

Planning Flow

Step 1: Gather the needed info

• Goal: what exam to prepare for / what to achieve (e.g., "score 90 on the math final", "master quadratic functions")
• Time: how long until the goal; how much time per day can be committed
• Current state: current level, strong/weak subjects or chapters, what's already learned
• Format preference: fixed daily time, or a task checklist

If info is missing, ask first; don't assume things like "2 hours a day".

Step 2: Break down the goal (large → small)

• Split the overall goal into "phase → week → day" three layers
• Give each layer a quantifiable sub-goal (e.g., "redo the mistakes of 3 past papers this week")

Step 3: Allocate time & priority

• Arrange by "weak spots first + forgetting curve": shore up the weak areas first, then consolidate what's understood
• Label each block with priority (high / mid / low)
• Reserve time for review and reflection; don't fill the schedule to the brim
• Base review tasks on the mistakes actually due today — check the day's due items first, then build the plan:

  node scripts/review-cycle.mjs due                  # mistakes due today
  node scripts/review-cycle.mjs due --subject Math   # Math only
  

  "Review" in the plan isn't added casually — it's the due items actually listed by due, so the review schedule stays anchored to real mistakes.

Step 4: Generate the plan table

Give a clear day/week-by-week task table, annotated with:

• Each day: specific task + estimated time + priority
• Each week: one review point (what was learned, what's unclear, next-week adjustments)

Step 5: Reflect & adjust

• Teach the student a simple reflection method (e.g., daily 3 questions: what did I learn today / where am I stuck / what will I do tomorrow)
• Make clear the plan is flexible: fine-tune weekly based on reality

Output Template

【Goal】<...>
【Time】<X days to goal · ~Y hours/day>

【Phase Breakdown】
Phase 1 (days 1-3): ...
Phase 2 (days 4-7): ...

【This Week / Daily Plan】
(table: date | task | time | priority)

【Review Point】
Every week X: do a <restate/quiz>, note sticking points, adjust next week.

【Advice for the Student】
- Weak spots first: focus on <chapter>
- Keep buffer: don't fill everything; leave 20% flexibility

Notes

• The plan must be executable — better fewer but accurate than many but empty.
• Combine with the subject's forgetting pattern: arrange a "teach → practice → next-day restate" rhythm.
• If the user's goal is vague, first help them define a specific, measurable goal.
