devlearn-glossary

A project glossary tracks development terms introduced during coding sessions, defining them in plain language and tying them to repository references. It updates by appending or extending definitions while deduplicating terms case-insensitively across build sessions.

A session learning glossary is a running, project-specific definitions list that prevents forgotten jargon. You need one when ambient lessons introduce new terms and you want to reliably answer what terms were covered during a build session or before a ship review.

You request a definition by stating the term and your app context. The glossary creates a project-anchored entry that defines the term in plain language and references where it appears in your repo, or marks it as not yet used.

Yes, glossary integration requires YAML frontmatter metadata discovery and optionally works with DEVLEARN.md when glossary mode is enabled. It creates glossary files at DEVLEARN_GLOSSARY.md or .devlearn/glossary.md.

Yes, the glossary supports lightweight quizzes triggered by user intent. These quizzes allow developers to review top terms and test their understanding of project-specific definitions covered during previous coding sessions.

The glossary relies on markdown files and manual intent triggers like define or glossary. It deduplicates terms case-insensitively but requires active user engagement to merge ambient session terms and maintain accurate repository references.
