References are stored in separate references.md files for token-efficient maintenance by AI agents.
When to Use This Skill
Use this skill when:
- Creating a new intelligent textbook that needs chapter references
- Adding references to an existing textbook
- Updating or expanding references for educational content
- A user explicitly requests reference generation

190quiz-generator
This skill generates interactive multiple-choice quizzes for each chapter of an intelligent textbook, with questions aligned to specific concepts from the learning graph and distributed across Bloom's Taxonomy cognitive levels to assess student understanding effectively. Uses serial execution (one agent) for token efficiency. Use this skill after chapter content has been written and the learning graph exists.
85story-generator
This skill generates graphic novel narratives about scientists, mathematicians, engineers, inventors, and other historical figures in science and technology, designed for intelligent textbooks. It creates compelling, historically accurate 12-panel stories with embedded image prompts and can also generate the panel images automatically via the Google Gemini API. Use this skill when the user wants to add a new historical-figure story to a textbook's Stories section, or when creating educational graphic novel content. Also use this skill when the user says "give me some ideas for graphic-novel stories" to generate a curated list of story ideas tailored to the textbook's subject matter.
51learning-graph-generator
Generates a comprehensive learning graph from a course description, including 200 concepts with dependencies, taxonomy categorization, and quality validation reports. Use this when the user wants to create a structured knowledge graph for educational content.
44faq-generator
This skill generates a comprehensive set of Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) from the course description, course content, learning graphs, concept lists, MicroSims, and glossary terms to help students understand common questions and prepare content for chatbot integration. Use this skill after course description, learning graph, glossary, and at least 30% of chapter content exist.
43chapter-content-generator
This skill generates comprehensive chapter content for intelligent textbooks after the book-chapter-generator skill has created the chapter structure. Use this skill when a chapter index.md file exists with title, summary, and concept list, and detailed educational content needs to be generated at the appropriate reading level with rich non-text elements including diagrams, infographics, and MicroSims.
