GoKawiilJane Street publishes Socratic Tutor teaching skill specification
Jane Street released a specification for a 'Socratic Tutor' skill designed to guide AI assistants through structured teaching sessions rather than one-off answers. The design calls for breaking topics into 4-10 subskills, running a diagnostic quiz to place a learner's starting level on a 0-5 scale, then teaching via questions rather than lectures, with progress tracked in an ASCII skill map. It activates only when a user explicitly asks to be taught, quizzed, or drilled, and defers to normal answers for simple questions.
