SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps you capture what you learn while coding into long-term memory without flooding your deck with low-quality or overly broad cards.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Creates flashcards from your workflow: When you invoke /anki or ask to create a card, it helps you add a vetted flashcard to a specific deck in Anki.
  • Lists and searches existing cards to prevent duplicates: It supports deck discovery and searching so new cards are only created when they’re not already covered.
  • Applies quality rules: It encourages atomic, short, minimal, non-trivia cards with consistent lowercase tags.

Quick Start

Ask Claude to propose a flashcard about a concept you just learned, then approve it so the Skill creates the note in Anki.

Frequently Asked Questions about anki

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I automatically create Anki flashcards from coding concepts I learn during development?

You can create Anki flashcards from coding concepts by invoking the /anki command or asking Claude to propose a card, which then requires your explicit approval before adding the structured note to a specific Anki deck.

How does AnkiConnect deduplication work when adding new coding flashcards?

AnkiConnect deduplication works by searching existing decks for similar cards before creation, ensuring new coding concept notes are only added when the material is not already covered, preventing low-quality duplicates in your deck.

What makes a high-quality Anki flashcard for remembering programming mental models?

A high-quality Anki flashcard for programming concepts is atomic, short, minimal, and non-trivial, utilizing consistent lowercase tags and structured front and back fields to capture mental models or gotchas for durable recall.

Do I need to manually specify the deck when creating Anki notes through a CLI workflow?

You do not need to manually hardcode the deck, as the workflow supports deck discovery and searching via AnkiConnect, allowing you to select a specific target deck before the note is created with your explicit approval.

Can I use this flashcard creation workflow without interrupting my coding session?

Yes, you can use this workflow seamlessly during development sessions because it detects when learning occurs and helps you vet and add flashcards on the fly without flooding your deck with overly broad cards.
