AI Engineering from Scratch skills

Interactive lesson tutor for the AI Engineering from Scratch curriculum. Reads LEARNING.md, fetches the next lesson, teaches it section by section in the terminal, quizzes at the end, and records progress. Works cloned or entirely over raw.githubusercontent.com — no setup required. Trigger phrases: "next lesson", "teach me", "continue the course", "let's learn", "resume learning"

AI-native tutor and onboarding workflow for the MCPA (Model Context Protocol Associate) certification in AI Engineering from Scratch. Use when a learner wants to prepare for the MCPA, resume their certification path, learn the next lesson interactively, run and verify practical labs, take the diagnostic or a full mock, or remediate weak exam domains from GitHub with Claude Code, Codex, ChatGPT, Cursor, or another agent.

Hands-on project tutor for the AI Engineering from Scratch Projects section. Guides a learner through one stage of a real project per session: read the stage lesson, predict, write the code, run the stage grader, reflect, and record progress in PROJECTS-LEARNING.md. Gives hints, never full solutions. Trigger phrases: "build a project", "next project stage", "continue my project", "start the research report agent".

AI-native tutor and onboarding workflow for the four independent Claude certification tracks in AI Engineering from Scratch. Use when a learner wants to choose a Claude certification, prepare for CCAO-F, CCDV-F, CCAR-F, or CCAR-P, resume a certification path, learn the next lesson interactively, run and verify practical labs, build scored artifacts, take a diagnostic or mock exam, or remediate weak exam domains from GitHub with Claude Code, Codex, ChatGPT, Cursor, or another agent.

Interactive quiz that maps your AI/ML knowledge to a starting point in the 523-lesson, 20-phase AI Engineering from Scratch curriculum. Trigger phrases: "where should I start", "find my level", "what do I know", "which phase", "assess my knowledge", "placement test", "skip ahead"

Check deployment evidence and recovery conditions.

Topic router for the AI Engineering from Scratch curriculum. Give it a topic, a question, or a bug you are fighting, and it points at the exact lessons that teach it, plus the right next command. Trigger phrases: "where do I learn", "which lesson covers", "course guide", "I'm stuck on", "what should I do next", "teach me MCP", "teach me Agent Skills", "where do I prepare for a Claude certification"

Focused interactive tutor for the Agent Skills Engineering path in AI Engineering from Scratch. Start or resume this route when a learner wants to create, discover, invoke, secure, evaluate, package, or port Agent Skills. Teaches one lesson per invocation and records evidence in AGENT-SKILLS-LEARNING.md.

One-time onboarding for the AI Engineering from Scratch curriculum (523 lessons, 20 phases). Interviews the learner, runs the placement quiz, and writes LEARNING.md, a persistent study plan the learn skill drives. Trigger phrases: "start learning", "set up the course", "begin the curriculum", "onboard me", "create my learning plan"

Phase quiz for AI Engineering from Scratch. Trigger with "quiz me", "test phase", "check my understanding", "do I know phase 3", or `/check-understanding <phase>`.

Focused interactive tutor for the Model Context Protocol (MCP) path in AI Engineering from Scratch. Start or resume this route when a learner wants to build, secure, debug, verify, or operate MCP clients, servers, transports, gateways, registries, or conformance gates. Teaches one lesson per invocation and records wire evidence in MCP-LEARNING.md.
