FAQPage Schema

How do I generate ISO 11179-compliant glossary definitions from a concept list?▼

ISO 11179-compliant glossaries enforce precise, concise, and non-circular definitions. This Skill generates alphabetically sorted terms with ISO definitions, examples, and cross-references from a learning-graph concept list, outputting docs/glossary.md and a quality report measuring precision, conciseness, distinctiveness, non-circularity, and example coverage.

What input do I need to create a glossary with ISO 11179 standards?▼

You need a finalized learning-graph concept list, typically in docs/learning-graph/02-concept-list-v1.md format, and a course description. The Skill validates inputs and generates an ISO-compliant glossary with quality metrics.

Can I use glossary generation for intelligent textbooks and course materials?▼

Yes. This approach applies to intelligent textbooks and course contexts where concept lists and course descriptions exist. It produces alphabetically ordered, ISO-compliant terms suited for educational documentation and reference materials.

How do I validate glossary quality after generation?▼

The Skill produces a glossary-quality-report that evaluates precision, conciseness, distinctiveness, non-circularity, and example coverage. This report helps identify and fix definition issues before publication.

What makes ISO 11179 definitions different from standard glossary entries?▼

ISO 11179 definitions are strictly structured to be precise, concise, distinct from other terms, non-circular, and supported by examples. This standard ensures glossaries are unambiguous and suitable for formal documentation, learning systems, and technical references.

Do I need to manually format glossary terms and cross-references?▼

No. The Skill automatically enforces alphabetical ordering, applies level-4 headers, generates cross-references, and formats the output as docs/glossary.md, eliminating manual formatting work.
