What the author says it does

Structured Socratic tutoring when the user explicitly asks to be taught, quizzed, or drilled to mastery on a topic: diagnostic placement, a skill map with levels 0-5, spaced review, and a final assessment. Trigger phrases: 'teach me', 'tutor me', 'quiz me', 'drill me', 'help me master'. Not for one-off 'explain X' or 'what is X' questions.

This is the description in the skill's own SKILL.md, written by its author, not by SkillCheatSheet.
