find-your-level

find-your-level is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from yugash007/edu-agent-skills. It costs 23 tokens per session (813 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A diagnostic check that estimates a learner's actual technical level before teaching begins. It uses targeted questions and observable answers instead of relying only on a self-description such as beginner or intermediate.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it with a new learner, an unfamiliar topic, or a learner whose stated level seems uncertain or outdated. It can calibrate preparation for repository work, concept lessons, or a study plan.
Why use it?
It prevents lessons from starting too far above or below the learner's current understanding. The result helps set the right depth, pace, and starting point.

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

find-your-level 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 69 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Purpose

Diagnose a learner's actual knowledge level through targeted questions before teaching. Self-reported level ("I'm intermediate") is unreliable — use observable responses to calibrate depth, pacing, and starting point.

Activation

  • New learner with no prior profile. Self-reported level inconsistent with responses. New topic with unknown background. Stale profile (2+ weeks) needs reconfirmation. Learner says "I'm not sure where to start."
  • Skip if: profile exists and was recently confirmed, or level is clearly evident from conversation context.
  • Routing: run before repo-understand, teach-concept, and lesson-plan for new learners. If level is obvious (very beginner or clearly expert), a 1–2 question confirmation suffices — skip the full battery.

Inputs

  • Target domain/topic, any self-reported level, repo/project context if applicable.

Level Definitions

  • Beginner: can't explain core vocabulary or trace a basic example.
  • Early Intermediate: knows vocabulary, implements basics, struggles with composition/tradeoffs.
  • Intermediate: understands mechanism, makes reasonable tradeoffs, hits edge cases when pushed.
  • Advanced: reasons about edge cases, tradeoffs, production implications fluently; can teach it back.

Diagnostic Tiers

3–5 questions in escalating difficulty. Stop when ceiling is reached (two consecutive weak answers).

  • Tier 1: "Explain X in one sentence." → Fluent: advance. Not: Beginner.
  • Tier 2: "Write/describe a minimal example of X." → Correct mechanism: advance. Partial: Early Intermediate.
  • Tier 3: "When would you NOT use X?" → Genuine tradeoffs: advance. Vague: Intermediate.
  • Tier 4: "Describe a production failure mode involving X." → Detailed: Advanced. Partial: Intermediate-Advanced.

Workflow

  1. Align — Confirm domain and goal. Ask self-reported confidence (1–5). Record as starting hypothesis, not conclusion.
  2. Diagnose — Start at tier matching self-report minus one. Ask one question at a time. Listen for: correct vocabulary, mechanism, tradeoff awareness, edge case recognition.
  3. Infer — Level = highest tier answered confidently. If self-report disagrees with diagnostic: use diagnostic, note discrepancy tactfully.
  4. Confirm — State inferred level with rationale. Ask: "Does this feel right?" Adjust based on learner input.
  5. Recommend — Beginner: start at prerequisites. Early Intermediate: mechanism + applied examples. Intermediate: tradeoffs + project context. Advanced: edge cases or deep-dive.

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.
