async-learning-teacher
Transform saved links, papers, articles, posts, videos, and reference collections into approachable AI teaching artifacts for later study. Use when a user wants to queue learning material, create a readable explanation from a source, teach a paper or post step by step, or run an interactive tutor that validates understanding over multiple sessions.
npx skills add tamdogood/builder-essential-skills --skill async-learning-teacher --agent claude-code
Same command for any agent — swap --agent for codex, cursor, copilot.
Weekly change comes from our own snapshots, not the repository page — it measures attention, not adoption.
# Async Learning Teacher ## Mission Convert raw learning captures into approachable teaching artifacts so a user can queue interesting resources now and study them later with less friction than reading the original source cold. Use this skill for: - Single links: blog posts, essays, papers, tweet threads, videos, documentation pages, or notes. - Reference sets: 5-10+ links about one domain or topic. - User-supplied pasted text when a link is unavailable, paywalled, deleted, or hard to scrape. - Ongoing tutoring sessions where the agent should validate understanding before moving forward. ## Modes Choose one mode from the user's request. ### Quick Teaching Use `quick-teach` for one source or a small tightly related set of sources. Intent: ```markdown Teach me this resource. Break it down step by step. Write each step like a chapter in a book. Write it all out at once. For subtle or difficult concepts, break things down further and use examples. ``` Produce a complete teaching artifact in one response or one saved document. ### Interactive Tutor Use `interactive-tutor` for broad topics, reference collections, or requests that explicitly ask to validate understanding. Intent: ```markd

How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add tamdogood/builder-essential-skills --skill async-learning-teacher --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From tamdogood/builder-essential-skills, a repository with 90 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
