Algo Sensei

**Algo Sensei** is an intelligent Claude Code skill that transforms how you practice LeetCode and master Data Structures & Algorithms. Instead of just giving you answers, it **teaches you to think** like a senior engineer.

Why Algo Sensei?

Traditional LeetCode practice has a problem: **Copy-pasting solutions doesn't build problem-solving skills.**

Algo Sensei is different:

• ✅ Teaches patterns instead of memorizing solutions
• ✅ Progressive hints that guide you without spoiling
• ✅ Real interview simulation with feedback
• ✅ Intelligent mode detection - adapts to what you need
• ✅ Pattern recognition training - see problems like pros do

Features

🎓 Tutor Mode

Get foundational understanding through:

• Clear concept explanations with examples
• Step-by-step problem breakdowns
• Visual diagrams (ASCII art)
• Building intuition, not just memorization

💡 Hint Mode (The Secret Weapon)

5-level progressive hint system:

1. Observation hints (gentlest)
2. Pattern recognition nudges
3. Approach direction
4. Specific technique reveal
5. Pseudocode skeleton (last resort)

**You learn 10x more** when you discover the solution yourself with guidance.
