What it does

Fluent Feedback Formatter is an agent skill from m98/fluent. Canonical feedback template for every learner answer in the Fluent system — celebrate correct parts, correct mistakes with category and brief explanation, show the full correct version, score out of 10, and classify severity (🔴 critical / 🟡 moderate / 🟢 minor). Use in every practice session (fluent-writing, fluent-vocab, fluent-speaking, fluent-reading, fluent-review) immediately after the learner submits an answer.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.2k 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. The repository describes itself as: The AI Language Learning Kit for Claude Code and others. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Linting and formatting

Example prompts

  • “/fluent-feedback-formatter”

Workflow steps

5 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Standard template
  2. Tag severity on every error
  3. Use these category labels
  4. Tone rules
  5. Hand score to SM-2

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 86fb80f. 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 (its code samples are markdown).

    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

Fluent Feedback Formatter loads about 1.2k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 112 tokens; SKILL.md has 505 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~112
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.2k

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.

Canonical feedback template for every learner answer in the Fluent system — celebrate correct parts, correct mistakes with category and brief explanation, show the full correct version, score out of 10, and classify severity (🔴 critical / 🟡 moderate / 🟢 minor). Use in every practice session (fluent-writing, fluent-vocab, fluent-speaking, fluent-reading, fluent-review) immediately after the learner submits an answer.

Feedback Formatter

Overview

Every practice session ends each turn with immediate feedback. Consistency matters — the learner builds mental models from the structure, and error patterns we mine from session files depend on predictable markers (❌, ✅, severity emoji). This skill defines the single feedback shape used across all Fluent practice skills.

When to Use

Load this skill whenever the tutor:

  • Grades a learner answer in any practice skill (fluent-learn, fluent-vocab, fluent-writing, fluent-speaking, fluent-reading, fluent-review).
  • Needs to classify an error by severity before writing to mistakes-db.json.
  • Needs to tag an error by category (grammar, vocabulary, prepositions, etc.).

Skip this skill for non-feedback output (greetings, summaries, progress reports).

Instructions

1. Standard template
markdown
{✅ or ❌} {one-line encouragement or gentle correction}

**Corrections:**
- ❌ "{wrong_part}" → **"{correct_part}"** ({category} — {brief_why})
- ✅ "{correct_part}" — {specific_praise}

**Correct version:**
"{full_correct_sentence}"

**Score: {X}/10** {emoji} {short_comment}

---

Skip the ❌ block if the answer is fully correct. Skip the ✅ block only if truly nothing was right (rare — usually at least word order or intent was right).

2. Tag severity on every error
SymbolSeverityMeaningExample
🔴CriticalBreaks communication or exam-blockerFormal/informal mix in formal email; wrong subordinate-clause word order
🟡ModerateNoticeable but understandablePreposition error, missing article
🟢MinorLow prioritySpelling, punctuation, accent marks

A single answer may contain multiple errors of different severity — tag each.

3. Use these category labels

These feed mistakes-db.json:

  • grammar — word order, conjugation, clause structure
  • formal_informal — u/je, uw/jouw, register mismatch
  • vocabulary — wrong word, English mixing, register-wrong synonym
  • spelling — minor
  • prepositions — om/op/in/bij/naar/etc.
  • articles — de/het, definite/indefinite
  • missing — omitted greeting, closing, required word
4. Tone rules
  • Encourage before correcting. Open with a ✅ or a warm ❌ ("Close! Let's tune one word."), not a bare Wrong..
  • Explain why, not just what. "Ik schrijf je" → "Ik schrijf u" (formal_informal — business emails require u) beats "Use u not je.".
  • Name the pattern. Helps the learner generalize: "This is the omdat word-order rule: verb goes last.".
  • Celebrate progress. "You didn't miss this last time — well done." when mistakes-db shows improvement.
  • Emojis on. The learner's profile has use_emojis: true by default. Keep them.

5. Hand score to SM-2

After scoring, feed the score into the SM-2 update via the fluent-sm2-calculator skill: quality = floor(score / 2).

Examples

See .claude/references/feedback-template.md for fully-rendered examples (mostly-correct answer with a minor slip; critical error with severity tagging). The reference file is the authoritative version — keep it and this skill in sync if updating.

Quick pattern:

  • Fully correct: open with ✅, skip ❌ block, list 1-2 ✅ strengths, show "Correct version" for echo, score 9-10/10.
  • Mistakes: open with warm ❌, list each correction with severity emoji + category + brief why, show full correct version, score with breakdown if the answer is long.

Critical Rules

  • Always use the template exactly. Deviations break session-file parsing downstream.
  • Severity tag is mandatory on every ❌ line. Drives spaced-repetition priority.
  • One score per answer. Total out of 10, with optional breakdown (grammar/vocab/structure) for long answers like writing tasks.
  • Never skip the "Correct version". Even if perfect, echoing the target form reinforces motor memory.

Why This Matters

Structured, consistent feedback:

  1. Lets the learner scan for what to fix at a glance.
  2. Makes session files parseable so PRACTICE.md analysis + /results mining work.
  3. Populates mistakes-db.json categories cleanly — which feeds spaced repetition, which drives the whole system.
