What it does

This is an instruction file that tells an AI agent how to design a course as one continuous lecture: a single teacher voice explains a subject across slide pages, with dense content, long spoken narration built around real cases, and few quizzes. Once installed, when someone asks for a masterclass or systematic walkthrough, the agent plans the course in that structure rather than as short fragmented pages. It works alongside a broader course-building skill, and it hands practice-focused requests to a separate workshop style.

Great for

  • Educators or creators who want an AI-generated lecture-style course on a conceptual subject
  • Learners who prefer listening to a long explanation over doing exercises
  • Developers building a course-generation pipeline who want a consistent lecture format

Skip it if

  • Hands-on training or exercise-based learning, which the file routes to a different skill because a lecture cannot be used for practice
  • Courses centred on manipulating a mechanism, which the file routes to another interactive skill

Try asking

  • “Create a masterclass lecture on how interest rates affect bond prices, using real historical cases”
  • “Make a systematic walkthrough of how public-key cryptography works, as a lecture”
  • “讲透 the principles of supply chain management in a long-form lecture”

  3. 3

    Ask for the task

    No special command needed — the agent reads the skill's description and loads it when your request matches. Try one of the prompts above.

Get better results

  • Name a specific subject and audience so the agent can pick real cases to recur across the lecture.
  • Check that the agent follows the stated density and narration guidance, since the output quality depends on the surrounding stage-design skill.
  • If you want practice rather than a lecture, ask for that directly so the workshop style is used instead.
