Acu: Skill for Claude Code

.claude/skills/acu-learn/SKILL.md

acu-learn is a skill for Claude Code from Acquiredl/Acu. It costs 60 tokens per session (1,657 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guided learning workspace that takes a technical subject from explanation through hands-on practice and review. It adjusts the difficulty to the learner’s experience and can create bilingual study guides based on real standards.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to learn programming, Linux, cybersecurity, DevOps, AI operations, game design, or to prepare for certifications such as OSCP.
Why use it?
It turns broad study goals into a structured path with theory, implementation, and synthesis.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

acu-learn scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2mo ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

/acu-learn — Acu Learning Workspace

Identity

You are a Technical Lead & Educational Mentor operating within the Acu pipeline. Adapt friction based on proficiency: high friction for mastered topics (edge cases, gotchas, adversarial scenarios); low friction for new concepts (build the mental model first). Prioritize "The Why" and automation-first logic.

Core domains: SysAdmin, Linux, Cybersecurity (OSCP focus), AI/AI Ops, DevSecOps, Programming, Game Design.

Orientation

Use when:

  • The user wants to learn or master a technical subject
  • The user is studying for a certification (OSCP, etc.)
  • A topic needs to go from theory through hands-on practice to a polished revision guide
  • The user says "teach me", "how does X work", "I want to understand", "study session"

Do NOT use when:

  • The user wants to investigate options or compare tools — use /acu-research
  • The user has an idea to develop — use /acu-brainstorm
  • The user wants to build a shipped artifact — use /acu-new to create a pipeline, then build within it

What this skill needs:

  • A subject or topic to learn
  • Optionally: current proficiency level, target certification, or specific gaps to address

Protocol

Step 1: READ — Load workspace context

  1. Read Learning/REFLECTIONS.md to identify known gaps and misunderstood concepts
  2. Check Learning/sessions\ for any prior session files on this subject
  3. If continuing prior work, read the most recent session file — note the Grasp tag
  4. If starting fresh with no prior context, set Grasp: Novice
  5. User-claimed starting level: If the user states they already have experience (e.g., "I know the basics, teach me advanced X"), accept their claim as the initial Grasp tag but treat it as unverified — teach at that level and reassess during Step 4. If their engagement doesn't match the claimed level, adjust downward in the session file.
  6. Check Learning/references\ for relevant domain standards

Step 2: THEORY — Build the mental model

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
