What it does

Scaffold Exercises is an agent skill from fossasia/eventyay-interpretation. Create exercise directory structures with sections, problems, solutions, and explainers that pass linting. Use when user wants to scaffold exercises, create exercise stubs, or set up a new course section.

Its SKILL.md is about 900 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Development, covering Linting and formatting. It works with pnpm. The repository describes itself as: A plugin for live interpretation of video streams. The licence is Apache-2.0.

When your agent uses it

User wants to scaffold exercises
Create exercise stubs
Set up a new course section

Example prompts

“/scaffold-exercises”

Workflow steps

5 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

Parse the plan - extract section names, exercise names, and variant types
Create directories - mkdir -p for each path
Create stub readmes - one readme.md per variant folder with a title
Run lint - pnpm ai-hero-cli internal lint to validate
Fix any errors - iterate until lint passes

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 1ca0139. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
- pnpm
- git
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use pnpm and git, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Scaffold Exercises loads about 898 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 56 tokens; SKILL.md has 294 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it: ~56
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches: ~898

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

name: scaffold-exercises
description: Create exercise directory structures with sections, problems, solutions, and explainers that pass linting. Use when user wants to scaffold exercises, create exercise stubs, or set up a new course section.

Scaffold Exercises

Create exercise directory structures that pass pnpm ai-hero-cli internal lint, then commit with git commit.

Directory naming

Sections: XX-section-name/ inside exercises/ (e.g., 01-retrieval-skill-building)
Exercises: XX.YY-exercise-name/ inside a section (e.g., 01.03-retrieval-with-bm25)
Section number = XX, exercise number = XX.YY
Names are dash-case (lowercase, hyphens)

Exercise variants

Each exercise needs at least one of these subfolders:

problem/ - student workspace with TODOs
solution/ - reference implementation
explainer/ - conceptual material, no TODOs

When stubbing, default to explainer/ unless the plan specifies otherwise.

Required files

Each subfolder (problem/, solution/, explainer/) needs a readme.md that:

Is not empty (must have real content, even a single title line works)
Has no broken links

When stubbing, create a minimal readme with a title and a description:

# Exercise Title

Description here

If the subfolder has code, it also needs a main.ts (>1 line). But for stubs, a readme-only exercise is fine.

Workflow

Parse the plan - extract section names, exercise names, and variant types
Create directories - mkdir -p for each path
Create stub readmes - one readme.md per variant folder with a title
Run lint - pnpm ai-hero-cli internal lint to validate
Fix any errors - iterate until lint passes

Lint rules summary

The linter (pnpm ai-hero-cli internal lint) checks:

Each exercise has subfolders (problem/, solution/, explainer/)
At least one of problem/, explainer/, or explainer.1/ exists
readme.md exists and is non-empty in the primary subfolder
No .gitkeep files
No speaker-notes.md files
No broken links in readmes
No pnpm run exercise commands in readmes
main.ts required per subfolder unless it's readme-only

Moving/renaming exercises

When renumbering or moving exercises:

Use git mv (not mv) to rename directories - preserves git history
Update the numeric prefix to maintain order
Re-run lint after moves

Example:

bash

git mv exercises/01-retrieval/01.03-embeddings exercises/01-retrieval/01.04-embeddings

Example: stubbing from a plan

Given a plan like:

Section 05: Memory Skill Building
- 05.01 Introduction to Memory
- 05.02 Short-term Memory (explainer + problem + solution)
- 05.03 Long-term Memory

Create:

bash

mkdir -p exercises/05-memory-skill-building/05.01-introduction-to-memory/explainer
mkdir -p exercises/05-memory-skill-building/05.02-short-term-memory/{explainer,problem,solution}
mkdir -p exercises/05-memory-skill-building/05.03-long-term-memory/explainer

Then create readme stubs:

exercises/05-memory-skill-building/05.01-introduction-to-memory/explainer/readme.md -> "# Introduction to Memory"
exercises/05-memory-skill-building/05.02-short-term-memory/explainer/readme.md -> "# Short-term Memory"
exercises/05-memory-skill-building/05.02-short-term-memory/problem/readme.md -> "# Short-term Memory"
exercises/05-memory-skill-building/05.02-short-term-memory/solution/readme.md -> "# Short-term Memory"
exercises/05-memory-skill-building/05.03-long-term-memory/explainer/readme.md -> "# Long-term Memory"
