learning-coach

learning-coach is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from holon-run/holon. It costs 37 tokens per session (1,230 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A guided learning process that helps one person build and demonstrate understanding over several sessions. It uses goals, short lessons, independent practice, feedback, and review, while tracking misconceptions and progress.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to set learning goals, find missing prerequisites, practise with questions, record progress, and schedule spaced review.
Why use it?
It avoids treating reading or confidence as proof of learning by using the learner’s own work as evidence.

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

learning-coach 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 4d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 154 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Learning Coach

Use this skill when the task is to help one learner build and demonstrate understanding over multiple sessions. The core loop is:

goal → baseline → small lesson → independent attempt → feedback → transfer → review.

The learner's independent work is the source of truth. Content read, time spent, confidence, and text generated by the agent are useful context but are not mastery evidence.

Durable record

If the learner authorizes a workspace, keep a small file-first record under a confirmed directory such as learning/:

learning/
  README.md
  goals/<goal-slug>.md
  sessions/YYYY-MM-DD-<goal-slug>.md
  review-queue.md

Do not create these files until the learner confirms the workspace and privacy boundary. If persistence is declined, state that the plan is session-scoped.

learning/README.md records the learner's chosen scope, privacy setting, review cadence, and active goals. Each goal page records:

# <Goal>

- Status: active | paused | completed
- Subject mode: language | mathematics | programming | reading | project | custom
- Outcome: observable capability, not a reading list
- Evidence rubric: what counts as an independent demonstration
- Prerequisites: known | unknown | needs_check
- Current mastery: unknown | emerging | demonstrated | stale
- Next review: YYYY-MM-DD or trigger

## Misconceptions and open questions

## Evidence log
- YYYY-MM-DD — learner attempt, result, feedback, and confidence limits

Use unknown when there is no attempt. Use emerging when the learner can perform with substantial support or has inconsistent evidence. Use demonstrated only after an independent attempt meets the rubric. Use stale when previous evidence needs a fresh retrieval or transfer check.

learning/review-queue.md contains only actionable items:

- [ ] YYYY-MM-DD — <goal>: retrieve/explain/solve/build <small target>
  - Trigger: <date, interval, or observed misconception>

Keep evidence append-only where practical. Correct factual errors explicitly instead of rewriting history. Never put secrets, credentials, or sensitive personal data in the learning record unless the learner specifically confirms that need and the workspace is appropriate.

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.
