What problem does it solve?
This Skill helps users choose a clear, tradition-specific learning sequence when they want to study a Buddhist school step by step instead of browsing disconnected summaries. It removes guesswork by mapping where to start, what to read next, and what to study after that based on current level and intent.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Tradition-aware sequencing: Builds a curriculum for schools such as Chan, Pure Land, Tiantai, Huayan, Madhyamaka, Yogācāra, Gelug, and Theravāda vipassana.
- Level-based guidance: Adjusts recommendations for beginners, intermediate readers, and advanced practitioners, including foundation, deepening, and long-term study phases.
- Guardrailed study planning: Highlights blind spots, avoids fabricated sources, and points users to the correct master skill or comparison route when a path is unavailable.
- Use Case: A user asks how to study Zen from zero; the Skill returns a staged path with primary texts, recommended master skills, likely misconceptions, and next-step directions.
Quick Start
Ask for a study path by naming the Buddhist tradition and your current level, for example: “I want a step-by-step curriculum for Chan Buddhism and I’m completely new.”
