lecture-note-companion

Follow the lecture chunk by chunk in conversation, then explicitly ask to write the note. The skill produces a structured classroom note organized by the lecture's conceptual sequence plus a separate cleaned full-transcript resource, linked bidirectionally in your vault.

Each mainline lecture chunk is decomposed into independent visual teaching units such as mechanisms, comparisons, or worked examples. One focused image is generated per unit using the imagegen skill, then reviewed and placed beside the section it explains.

Yes. Side questions are classified as sideways turns, answered directly with a small example, and explicitly connected back to the current mainline topic. The lecture outline and chunk sequence are preserved so the main thread is never lost.

Yes. When saving is requested, it loads the secondbrain-conversation-diary, secondbrain-diary, and obsidian-markdown skills, and uses obsidian-cli for vault discovery. Notes use Obsidian math delimiters, wikilinks, and embedded images.

The note is written only after an explicit request such as asking to save or organize the lecture into notes. Until then, the skill stays in live learning mode, explaining chunks and questions without producing the final document.

The skill only tracks content visible in the conversation, so unshared lecture material cannot be reconstructed. Homework is included only when explicitly assigned to the covered lecture, and bridges between sections are not invented beyond what the source material establishes.
