math-tutor

math-tutor is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from Orkas-AI/Orkas-Awesome-AgentSkills. It costs 3 tokens per session (1,274 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guide for teaching school-level mathematics through explanations, worked examples, practice questions, answer checks, and mistake analysis. It uses different modes for tasks such as solving, generating questions, grading, and reporting learning gaps.

In plain words
What is it for?
Explaining concepts, guiding students through problems, creating practice or exam drafts, checking answers, analyzing errors, and summarizing learning weaknesses.
Why use it?
It gives the agent a defined way to tailor help to a student’s grade level and learning task. It also sets limits around advanced mathematics and unsupported features.

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

math-tutor 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.

Math Tutor

When To Use

  • The user asks for K12 math explanation, concept clarification, worked examples, or step-by-step tutoring within a grade/curriculum boundary.
  • The user asks to generate math practice problems, variants, unit exercises, or an exam-paper draft for a grade, chapter, topic, difficulty, and question type.
  • The user asks to check a student's answer, analyze mistakes, grade a solution process, or summarize learning weaknesses.
  • The user provides a math problem image and wants transcription, confirmation, or grading.

Do not use for open-ended mathematical modeling, Python/local expression calculation, Wolfram-style symbolic computation, university-level research math, or generic homework tutoring outside math. Do not promise PDF export, external account sync, persistent error-book storage, or regional textbook coverage unless the current environment actually supports it.

How To Call

  1. Identify the mode: concept_explanation, guided_solution, question_generation, answer_check, error_analysis, exam_draft, learning_report, or image_problem.
  2. Determine grade/stage and topic. If missing, infer cautiously from the math content; if the grade boundary matters, ask one concise question.
  3. Check curriculum boundaries with references/curriculum-boundaries.md. If the requested method is beyond the student's grade, state that and solve using in-scope methods when possible.
  4. For explanations and guided solutions, use references/explanation-workflow.md.
  5. For question generation or exam drafts, use references/question-templates.md and verify every generated answer before showing it.
  6. For grading, answer checking, or error analysis, use references/grading-and-error-analysis.md. Always solve independently first, then compare with the student's work.
  7. For images, use references/attachment-policy.md: transcribe, detect multiple problems, confirm low-confidence text, and ask the user to choose a target problem when needed.
  8. For learning reports, use references/report-templates.md. Use only available data; if data is insufficient, say so.
  9. Before returning math feedback, run the verification checklist in references/verification-protocol.md.

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.
