What it does

When installed, the agent can build a multi-week study plan for a bar exam, a specific law school exam, or a semester. It asks about your exam date, subjects, weak areas, realistic weekly hours, life commitments, and days off, then lays out phases and a daily session schedule. The plan is saved to a file and updated as you log study sessions, and it can also show today's schedule, progress trends, or a condensed cram mode.

Great for

  • Law students preparing for the bar exam who want a structured, adaptive schedule
  • Students who tend to lose track of what to study and need a shared plan other study tools can follow
  • Students juggling jobs or caregiving who want a plan sized to their real week

Skip it if

  • Anyone wanting guaranteed exam content: the skill itself notes that past question frequency is not a prediction and that its time estimates are general guidance, not doctrine
  • Users not on a Claude-based setup with the expected plugin config folder, since it reads and writes files in a specific location

Try asking

  • “Build a study plan for my bar exam in July, I can study about 20 hours a week”
  • “Update my study plan based on my practice session history this week”
  • “Show me what I'm scheduled to study today and which subjects are slipping”
  • “Switch my plan into cram mode for the last three weeks before the exam”

Get better results

  • Be honest about weekly hours and life commitments; the skill will push back on over-ambitious plans.
  • Log your sessions so the --update and --status modes can adjust priorities based on real history.
  • Treat time estimates and cram-mode priorities as starting points and verify against your prep course and official materials.
