Suggested Skills

Prompt

I am now getting pretty good at creating Claude Skills. I have one skill for creating MicroSims and another skill for creating learning graphs. Based on all the content in this current intelligent-textbooks GitHub repo, what other skills would you recommend? For each skill, suggest what the inputs and outputs would be. Suggest quality metrics for both inputs and outputs. For each skill list the inputs, outputs in level two headers. Use the template at /docs/skills/template.md for each Skill you recommend.

Skill Suggestion Response

I'll analyze the repository to understand the content structure and workflows, then recommend additional Claude Skills based on the patterns I find.
