What it does
Gap Analysis From Student Work is an agent skill from GarethManning/education-agent-skills. Analyse student work against criteria to identify specific gaps between current performance and learning objectives. Use when reviewing submissions, planning feedback, or diagnosing learning needs.
Its SKILL.md is about 4.7k 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, covering Lesson planning. 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
- Reviewing submissions
- Planning feedback
- Diagnosing learning needs
Example prompts
- “/gap-analysis-from-student-work”
Workflow steps
4 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- Correctly identifies the technique. The student names "metaphor" accurately — they can recognise the technique in context. This is a…
- Selects a relevant quotation. The quotation "the sea was a raging beast" is well-chosen — it's a clear, analysable example of the…
- Embeds the quotation correctly. The quotation is integrated into the sentence with quotation marks, not dropped in as a separate line…
- Attempts to discuss effect on the reader. The student has the right structure — technique → quotation → effect — which shows they…
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
Gap Analysis From Student Work loads about 4.7k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 57 tokens; SKILL.md has 1,729 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 1,729 words (~4,680 tokens).
“Analyses a student work sample against assessment criteria, identifies specific gaps (not just "needs improvement" but exactly WHAT is missing and WHY), classifies each gap by type (conceptual misunderstanding, procedural error, or communication/presentation issue), and generates targeted next teaching steps…”
