TLDR

Things people build with this

USE CASE 1

Turn a jumbled list of learning goals, coding, finance, creativity, into a prioritized, dependency-ordered roadmap with a visual diagram.

USE CASE 2

Find the shared foundational skills that unlock progress across multiple unrelated-looking goals so you know where to start first.

USE CASE 3

Get a stage-by-stage attack order that flags which specific skill you can begin today and which to defer until prerequisites are done.

USE CASE 4

Run an independent AI critic pass on your learning plan to catch ordering gaps or missing prerequisites.

In plain English

This repository contains a skill for Claude Code, Anthropic's AI-powered coding tool, that helps people turn a vague collection of learning goals into a structured roadmap. The problem it addresses is common: you want to learn many things at once, maybe something creative, something financial, and something technical, and you cannot figure out where to start or in what order. The skill takes whatever you give it, a paragraph, rough notes, or an old document, and works through it in a few steps. It asks a small number of follow-up questions to clarify the key gaps, then breaks your goals down into the smallest learnable units, separating hard technical skills from mindset or thinking habits. It maps out which skills depend on which other skills, then generates a dependency diagram using a tool called Mermaid (a text-based chart format). The central idea is that goals which look unrelated on the surface often share the same underlying foundations. The skill tries to surface those shared building blocks and highlight them as high-leverage starting points, meaning that learning one thing unlocks progress across several of your goals at once. It then produces a stage-by-stage attack order and flags what you could start today versus what you should set aside until later. An optional step runs a separate AI as an independent critic to review the resulting plan and look for flaws. The skill only produces the plan, it does not track your progress or adjust over time. Installation involves copying one folder into your Claude Code skills directory. The README is written primarily in Chinese, with a short English summary. The license is MIT.

Copy-paste prompts

Prompt 1
I want to learn Python, personal finance, and digital illustration. Using the growth-path-planning approach, find the shared building blocks and give me a dependency-ordered learning roadmap with a Mermaid diagram.
Prompt 2
Here are my rough learning notes: [paste notes]. Break them into the smallest learnable units, separate hard skills from mindset habits, and generate a stage-by-stage attack order.
Prompt 3
Which of my goals, machine learning, technical writing, and business strategy, share the deepest foundational skills I should learn first to unlock progress across all three?
Prompt 4
Generate a dependency diagram in Mermaid format for these learning goals and flag the single highest-leverage skill I should start on today.
Prompt 5
Run an independent critic review on this learning roadmap and identify where the ordering has gaps, circular dependencies, or skills attempted before their prerequisites.
