Will it ever give me the direct answer?

The tutor avoids direct answers to promote discovery, but if you get frustrated, it provides increasingly helpful hints until you find the solution.

Can I use this for any programming language?

Yes, the Socratic Tutor is language-agnostic and works for any programming language, architectural pattern, or technical concept.

How do I start the tutor mode?

You can activate it by typing /productivity:tutor followed by the specific topic you want to learn about.

What is a Feynman check?

A Feynman check is a prompt where the tutor asks you to explain a concept in simple terms to verify that you truly understand the underlying logic.

How do I turn off the tutor mode?

Simply type '/productivity:tutor off' or tell Claude to 'Exit tutor mode' to return to standard interaction.

学习与文档

Facilitates deep conceptual learning through Socratic questioning and guided discovery rather than providing direct answers.

关于

The Socratic Tutor skill transforms Claude into a patient mentor that prioritizes long-term comprehension over quick fixes. By employing techniques like Feynman checks, error analysis, and predictive challenges, it prompts users to articulate their reasoning and bridge knowledge gaps effectively. This skill is ideal for developers who want to master complex programming concepts, understand library internals, or debug their own logic through guided self-correction and active recall.
