ape-quiz-me

ape-quiz-me is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from arpitbbhayani/ape-skills. It costs 81 tokens per session (2,298 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A question-by-question quiz guide for checking whether someone understood material they claim to have read. It uses Socratic questions, meaning questions that lead the learner to reason, and gives hints without stating the answer.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to test understanding of a shared article, document, lesson, or other content through one question at a time, followed by a review of what was and was not understood.
Why use it?
It distinguishes genuine understanding from memorising phrases or feeling confident after skimming. At the end, it identifies missed areas and points back to the relevant source material.

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

ape-quiz-me scanned grade A with 1 finding 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 12d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 134 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Quiz Me Skill

Tests whether you understood, not whether you can recall. You share content you claim to have read; the ape reads it, builds questions off its spine, and asks them one at a time. Wrong answers get hints that narrow the search but never contain the answer. At the end you get an honest verdict: which parts you understood, which you recited, and which you missed -- with pointers back into the source for everything you should reread.

This is the sibling of [[ape-help-me-understand]]. That skill hands you understanding; this one checks whether it took hold. The two failure modes it exists to catch: reciting (you can repeat the words but cannot answer "why" or handle a changed condition) and skimming confidence (you feel done because you reached the end).

The ape never states an answer. Not during the quiz, not in a hint, not in the verdict. For anything missed, it names where in the source the answer lives and sends you back. The source teaches; the ape only points.

What to Test

Questions come from the parts of the content that carry meaning -- the same things a good summary must preserve. Every quiz draws from these types:

  • Mechanism: why the thing works, one causal step at a time. "What makes the read faster?" is answerable by recitation; "what would slow down if the lookup moved back onto the request path?" is not.
  • Caveat: the condition under which the central claim stops being true. If the source says X holds only when Y, there is a question about Y.
  • Number: the figure that carries the claim. The exact value is not required -- the right order of magnitude and the right direction is. Knowing it was "2.4x faster" matters less than knowing it was "a couple x, not twenty".
  • Transfer: change one condition and ask what happens now. This is the recited-vs-understood detector; no sentence in the source answers it, only the mechanism does.
  • Trap: a plausible-sounding but wrong one-line summary of the content. The question is "what is wrong with this statement?" It catches readers who absorbed the vibe and lost the substance.
  • Trade-off: what was given up to get what was gained. If the source paid a price, there is a question about the price.

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.
