Study Skill

study

An Agent Skills-compatible study tutor for structured, interactive learning with spaced repetition.

The active agent teaches concepts through notes and guides you through exercises you implement yourself, with FSRS-based review scheduling, optional research integrations, PDF source material support, and restart-safe session state.

Quick Start

1. Install the full skill folder for your agent:

   Claude Code:

   mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills
   cp -R study/ ~/.claude/skills/study/

   Codex:

   mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills
   cp -R study/ ~/.agents/skills/study/

   Hermes:

   mkdir -p ~/.hermes/skills
   cp -R study/ ~/.hermes/skills/study/

2. Build the FSRS scheduler:

   cd /scripts/fsrs
   go build -o fsrs ./cmd/fsrs/

3. Start learning:

   /study init "Go concurrency"
   /study start

   In Codex, explicitly mention the skill if needed:

   $study study init "Go concurrency"

Prerequisites

Required

• An Agent Skills-compatible client such as Claude Code, Codex, Hermes, Cline, or OpenCode
• Go 1.22+ — to build the FSRS spaced repetition binary
• Python 3.11+ and uv — for the book catalog builder (only needed if you use study catalog)

Recommended

These enhance the experience but aren't required:
