Alvarmethod

Alvarmethod is a portable collection of agent skills that implements Eero Alvar’s AI learning loop for Codex, Claude Code, Grok, Pi, OpenCode, Cursor, and other skills-CLI agents. Its full `teach` skill probes the learner with graded questions, builds a Mermaid dependency DAG, teaches one reasoning step at a time, and uses a native quiz tool to lock in each node; a failed quiz inserts a prerequisite before continuing rather than merely repeating the same material. The pack also includes separate skills for probing, maintaining a learner profile, generating a visual, and fact-checking claims before they are taught. It stores learner, map, session, and visual files in a `.alvar/` directory and can be installed globally or per project through the `skills` CLI or its installer. The repository states that the skills, installer, and documentation are released under the MIT license.
