Weekly change comes from our own snapshots, not the repository page — it measures attention, not adoption.
# Micro-Learning Design bite-sized learning experiences that fit into busy schedules. ## What is Micro-Learning? | Feature | Traditional | Micro-Learning | |---------|-------------|----------------| | Duration | 30-60 min | 2-10 min | | Format | Lecture, textbook | Video, quiz, interactive | | Focus | Multiple topics | Single concept or skill | | Schedule | Fixed time | On-demand, just-in-time | | Retention | Variable | High (spaced, focused) | ## Design Principles ### 1. One Concept Per Module Each micro-learning unit should teach exactly one thing: - One formula or rule - One step in a process - One concept or definition - One tool or technique ### 2. Structure Each Module ``` Hook (15s) → Why this matters Core (2-5 min) → The concept, demonstrated Apply (1-2 min) → Quick practice or scenario Check (30s) → One question to confirm understanding ``` ### 3. Mobile-First Design - Vertical video (9:16 aspect ratio) - Large text, high contrast - Touch-friendly interactions (tap, swipe) - Offline-capable - Progress sync across devices ## Engagement Patterns - **Streaks**: Daily login rewards (Duolingo model) - **Push notifications**: Reminders (not spam) - **Leaderboards**: Optional, op

How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add cosmicstack-labs/mercury-agent-skills --skill micro-learning --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 cosmicstack-labs/mercury-agent-skills, a repository with 364 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.
