What it does
AI Facilitated Collaborative Learning Designer is an agent skill from GarethManning/education-agent-skills. Design AI-supported collaborative tasks that structure group interaction and address participation problems. Use when students struggle to collaborate effectively on group tasks.
Its SKILL.md is about 6.4k 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 Education. The repository describes itself as: 165 evidence-grounded AI skills for teachers, school leaders and EdTech builders—pedagogy, learning science, curriculum, assessment and regeneration. Claude, Codex and Hermes.
When your agent uses it
- Students struggle to collaborate effectively on group tasks
Example prompts
- “/ai-facilitated-collaborative-learning-designer”
Workflow steps
6 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- Individual thinking before group discussion (Phase 1). Every student arrives at the discussion with their own ideas. This prevents the…
- Round-robin sharing (start of Phase 2). The AI enforces "everyone speaks once before anyone speaks twice." This ensures quiet students…
- Rotating author structure (Phase 3). No single student can write the entire report. The rotation forces different people to hold the pen…
- Quality checker role. Person D's explicit job is to ensure integration — but also to notice if anyone has stopped contributing and to pull…
- Random presentation selection (Phase 4). Because any member could be selected, the group is incentivised to ensure everyone understands…
- AI participation monitoring. The AI detects extended silence from individual students and prompts the group to include them. This catches…
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 6bbbce4. 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
No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md.
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
AI Facilitated Collaborative Learning Designer loads about 6.4k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 56 tokens; SKILL.md has 2,496 words of instructions outside code blocks.
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.
SKILL.md
Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 2,496 words (~6,384 tokens).
“Designs a collaborative learning task with specific AI facilitation points — the places where an AI system supports the group process without replacing it. This skill addresses the fundamental challenge of collaborative learning: it CAN be one of the most…”
