exercise-builder
Add exercises to each tutorial module (inputs, expected outputs, verification steps) and update `outline/module_plan.yml`.**Trigger**: exercises, practice, verification checklist, 教程练习, 可验证作业.**Use when**: 已有模块计划(`outline/module_plan.yml`),需要为每个模块补齐至少 1 个可验证练习以形成 teaching loop。**Skip if**: 还没有 module plan(先跑 `module-planner`)。**Network**: none.**Guardrail**: 每个练习必须包含 expected output + verification steps;避免只给“思考题”无验收。
When & Why to Use This Skill
The Exercise Builder is a specialized Claude skill designed to enhance educational content by automatically generating verifiable exercises for tutorial modules. It ensures every lesson includes a complete teaching loop by providing clear prompts, expected outputs, and detailed verification checklists, making learning measurable and actionable for students and professionals alike.
Use Cases
- Technical Course Authoring: Automatically generate hands-on practice labs for software tutorials to ensure learners can verify their progress with concrete outputs.
- Internal Training Standardization: Update corporate training manuals with 'Definition of Done' checklists and practical exercises to validate employee skill acquisition.
- Interactive Documentation: Transform static API or product documentation into a series of verifiable tasks that guide users through real-world implementation steps.

Exercise Builder
Goal: attach at least one verifiable exercise to every module so the tutorial has a teaching loop.
Inputs
outline/module_plan.yml
Outputs
- Updated
outline/module_plan.yml
Exercise schema (recommended)
For each module, add an exercises list. Each exercise should contain:
promptexpected_outputverification_steps(a checklist)
Workflow
- Read
outline/module_plan.ymland enumerate modules. - For each module, design ≥1 exercise that directly verifies the module objectives.
- Ensure every exercise has an expected output and a verification checklist.
- Update
outline/module_plan.ymlin place.
Definition of Done
- Every module in
outline/module_plan.ymlhas ≥1 exercise. - Every exercise includes
expected_output+verification_steps.
Troubleshooting
Issue: exercises are open-ended with no verification
Fix:
- Convert them into “do X → observe Y → verify Z” with concrete artifacts.
Issue: exercises drift from the running example
Fix:
- Re-anchor each exercise to the module’s
running_example_stepsso the tutorial stays coherent.
