Test and solidify understanding of new concepts using the Feynman Technique. Use when the user says "test me on [concept]", "Feynman [topic]", "I learned about [X]", or wants to practice explaining something they've learned. Creates a glossary of mastered concepts over time.

# Feynman Learning A structured workflow for deep learning through teaching. ## Purpose The Feynman Technique is based on Richard Feynman's insight: if you can't explain something simply, you don't understand it well enough. 1. User selects a Concept to learn and triggers Feynman Learning 2. User explains the Concept as if to a 12-year-old 3. Claude reviews for simplicity and accuracy; User iterates 4. Claude adds the refined explanation to a glossary Markdown file ## When to Use Trigger this skill when the user: - Says "test me on [concept]" or "Feynman [topic]" - Says "I learned about [X]" and wants to be tested - Wants to practice explaining something they've learned - Asks to add something to their learning glossary ## Workflow ### Step 1: Prompt for Explanation Ask the user to explain the concept as if teaching a curious 12-year-old. Emphasize: no jargon, use analogies, keep it simple. ### Step 2: Review Response Evaluate the explanation on two dimensions: **Simplicity** — Would a 12-year-old actually understand this? - Flag jargon or unexplained technical terms - Note missing analogies or examples - Identify overly complex sentence structures **Accuracy** — Is it technically correct? - Identify factual errors or misconceptions - Note oversimplifications that distort the truth - Flag missing crucial details ### Step 3: Iterate If the explanation needs work: - Provide specific, constructive feedback - Ask the user to try again - Repeat until both simplicity an
