course-buddy-builder

What problem does it solve?

This skill eliminates the manual effort of creating and keeping course knowledge artifacts consistent by automating the generation of a course wiki, a Jupyter practice workbook, and a Course Buddy skill file from a course descriptor.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Course Wiki Generation (Obsidian format): Creates an index, concept pages, glossary entries, and a concept map for a new or updated course.
• Practice Workbook Generation (Jupyter/Notebook): Produces a structured Jupyter practice notebook to support learning-by-doing.
• Course Buddy Skill Instance Output: Writes an instance skill.md under the correct course folder structure, including outcomes, dependency mapping, assessments, question patterns, and practice checklists.
• Operating Modes: Supports Build (new course), Refresh (update with new syllabus/sources/gaps), and Audit (dry-run staleness checking) for quarterly or pre-semester maintenance.
• Admin/Developer Context Only: Intended for faculty/admin workflow, not student-facing coaching sessions.

Quick Start

Use the course-buddy-builder tool to generate a new course knowledge package by running a build command with your course descriptor template and an output directory for the generated artifacts.
