Flashcard drill
Run a flashcard session for $ARGUMENTS (exam id + optional domain).
Load cards
Valid exam ids: associate-foundations, developer-foundations, architect-foundations,
architect-professional. Read ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/data/<exam-id>.json (a { cards: [...] }
object). Inside the anthropic-university repo, content/<exam-id>/flashcards.json works too. If no
exam id was given, list the four tracks and ask.
Session contract
- Show the front only until the user answers or says
flip.
- Self-grades:
got it / almost / missed (aliases: 2 / 1 / 0 or g / a / m).
- Commands:
shuffle, domain <id>, stats, stop.
- Unofficial study aid — keep the loop quick.
Drill loop (Leitner-style)
- Shuffle the cards (optionally filter to the requested domain). Prefer unknown/shaky cards first if
you already have grades from earlier in the session.
- Show the front only. Let the user attempt recall, then reveal the back.
- Ask them to self-grade: got it / almost / missed.
- Keep three buckets in memory:
- missed → re-queue soon (after ~2 cards)
- almost → re-queue later in the session
- got it → retire for this session (surface again only if time allows)
- Continue until the user stops or every card is retired. Prioritize the missed/almost buckets so
weak cards get more reps.
- Every ~8 cards, print a one-line
stats: reviewed / still shaky / domains of misses.
Wrap up
Report:
- Cards reviewed
- How many are still shaky (missed/almost)
- Which domains those cluster in
- One suggested next step (
/exam-coach:quiz-me <exam-id> <domain> or read that domain in the study
guide)
Keep it motivating and terse.
