canvas-outcome-tracker is a skill for Claude Code from bruchris/canvas-lms-mcp. It costs 82 tokens per session (993 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A Canvas reporting tool for measuring how well students meet a course’s learning outcomes. Canvas is a learning platform used to manage courses, assignments, grades, and assessments.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to review mastery by student, outcome, or group, and to prepare program assessment, accreditation reports, or advising discussions.
Why use it?
It brings outcome results together so instructors can see class-wide patterns, individual student progress, and weak areas without reviewing each result separately.

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

canvas-outcome-tracker 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 11d 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.

Canvas Outcome Tracker

Surface learning outcome mastery data across a course — by outcome, by student, or by group — to support program assessment and accreditation reporting.

Prerequisites

  • Canvas MCP server must be running and connected.
  • You must have instructor or admin role in the target course.
  • The course must have outcomes aligned to assignments (contact your Canvas admin if outcomes are not visible).

Steps

1. Identify the Target Course

Ask the user which course to analyse. Accept a course name, code, or Canvas ID.

If unclear, call list_courses to let them select.

2. Load the Outcome Structure

Call get_root_outcome_group to get the top-level outcome group for the course. Then call list_outcome_groups to retrieve all outcome groups in the course.

For each group, call list_outcome_group_outcomes to enumerate the individual outcomes. Build a flat list:

  • Outcome ID
  • Outcome title
  • Mastery points threshold

Ask the user if they want to focus on a specific outcome group or review all outcomes.

3. Choose Report Type

Offer three modes:

Mode Description
Class overview Mastery distribution for all outcomes at once
Per-student rollup Which outcomes each student has or hasn't mastered
Single outcome deep-dive All students' results for one outcome

4A. Class Overview — Mastery Distribution

For each outcome, call get_outcome_mastery_distribution with the course ID and outcome ID. This returns the count of students at each mastery level (exceeds / meets / approaching / not yet).

Summarise as a ranked table, lowest mastery first:

Outcome Mastery Distribution — [Course Name]

LOWEST MASTERY (action needed)
• "Critical Analysis" — 38% not yet mastered (19/50 students)
• "APA Citation" — 24% not yet mastered (12/50 students)

MEETING EXPECTATIONS
• "Thesis Construction" — 82% mastered
• "Research Synthesis" — 79% mastered

4B. Per-Student Rollup

Call get_outcome_rollups with the course ID. This returns each student's rolled-up mastery status per outcome.

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.
