study-notes-synthesizer
Turn lecture notes, slides, and readings into one exam-ready study guide — synthesis, not summary. Use when asked to make a study guide, combine my notes, prep me for the exam, or organize this course material. Produces a structured guide: core concepts with plain-language explanations, connections between topics, worked examples where the subject has them, self-test questions, and an honest list of gaps in the source notes.

# Study Notes Synthesizer Skill The difference between notes and knowledge is structure: knowing *how the pieces connect* and *what you'd be asked*. This skill synthesizes messy course materials into a guide built for retrieval — and is honest about what the notes don't cover, because the gap you don't know about is the exam question you miss. ## What This Skill Produces - **The concept map in prose** — core ideas explained plainly, each linked to what it builds on - **Connections** — where topics relate, contrast, or get confused with each other - **Self-test questions** — retrieval practice at three depths (define / apply / compare-and-why) - **The gaps list** — what the syllabus implies but the notes never cover ## Required Inputs Ask for these if not provided: - **The materials** — notes, slides, readings, past papers (paste in any order; messy is fine) - **The course and level** — "Intro Micro, undergrad" calibrates depth - **The exam format** if known — multiple choice, essays, problems — the guide's emphasis follows it - **What feels shakiest** — the guide leads with the student's declared weak spots ## Framework 1. **Synthesize, never sequence** — organize by concept depend

Where does this skill come from?
From mohitagw15856/pm-claude-skills, a repository with 1,255 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.
