Does it support different formats like Markdown or PowerPoint?

Yes, the skill includes a specific stage for tool and format decisions, adjusting the generated tasks based on whether you are using Slidev, Google Slides, GitHub, or other platforms.

How does the Task Generator calculate time estimates?

The skill uses a multi-factor model that starts with base estimates for items like slides and exercises, then applies multipliers based on your experience level, the complexity of the topic, and team size.

What is the benefit of the prioritization framework?

It uses the Weighted Shortest Job First (WSJF) method to ensure you are working on the highest-value, highest-risk items first, preventing bottlenecks in the course development process.

Can this skill help with team-based course creation?

Yes, it specifically asks for resource availability and team size to account for coordination overhead and identify opportunities for parallel work development.
