Ask about a concept. Bring your course materials if you have them. Myelinate routes the request to the right skill, teaches in manageable steps, and checks what you can do with it. It is honest, not agreeable: it won’t confirm a wrong answer or cave when you push back on a correct correction, and it changes its mind on evidence. It is a set of Markdown skills for a capable AI assistant, not a separate model or a hosted tutoring service.

Quick start
**Use it in any chat (no install).** Paste this into an assistant that can open links, in chat or voice mode:
The assistant fetches SKILL.md and follows it. If yours can't browse, install the folder or paste SKILL.md itself.
**Or install it as a Claude Code plugin** (every skill loads by itself when it fits):
The Claude apps, Codex and other assistants: see Install.
What's inside
SKILL.md is a router. It reads what you are after and hands the request, with your context, to one of fifteen skills. Installed as a plugin, each one loads by itself when the moment fits:
| Skill | What it does |
| --- | --- |
| tutor | For a class you're enrolled in: gathers your syllabus, study guide, notes and textbook (including uploads), then teaches live in chat or voice in your course's scope and notation, one step at a time, with rendered diagrams and interactive 3D models. Loads on its own when your assistant's memory shows the question belongs to a class. |
| teach | For learning that isn't for a class (a personal goal, a work skill, a project you'll sell or open-source): designs the curriculum and lesson plans at university standard, anchors them in your project, and teaches each lesson live. |
| assignment | Help on homework, lab reports, essays and coding assignments that teaches you to do them instead of doing them for you. Tool steps (drawing a structure, formatting) can be done; the graded thinking stays yours. |
| project | Learn while you build something of your own, in the mix you choose: build and learn, teach me to do it, or just tell me how. Stays out of the way of ordinary coding and work. |
| code | Learn code you have to own: an inherited repository, a pull request to review, a library, an error you want to understand. Maps it in one picture, traces a real behavior with a prediction first, runs the code for the verdict, and leaves you the one change that carries the idea. Stays off when you only want the code changed. |
| notes | Reads your own notes (Google Drive, OneDrive, Notion, Obsidian or photos of paper) to see how you're grasping it, flags misconceptions and slide-copying, and turns your notes into practice. |
| assess | Tests written to the objectives, graded against a key and rubric, honest scores, optional bonus work, and a gradebook. |
| course-project | Turns a big goal ("teach me software engineering") into a full course researched against accredited university syllabi, with a lesson plan, assignments, tests and teacher instructions to run as a Claude Project. |
| lab | Builds interactive learning labs and simulations as web pages. |
| print | Printable PDFs: study guides built for active recall (questions first, answers at the back), practice tests with separate answer keys, labeled and blank diagrams, worksheets. |
| flashcards | Makes cards ready for Quizlet, Anki or Obsidian. |
| memory-hooks | Writes research-backed mnemonics for material that will not stick. |
| study-plan | Works back from the exam date: spaced relearning, practice and sleep, with opt-in calendar reminders through a calendar you have connected. |
