What it does

Exam Simulator is an agent skill from mingchen666/Reviva. Create realistic mock exams from user-provided materials, syllabi, exam scopes, or searched public information. Supports exam structure, time limits, marks, answer keys, explanations, rubrics, hidden-answer simulation mode, grading, diagnostics, printable papers, and HTML exam pages.

Its SKILL.md is about 3.2k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 1 other file (for example `config.json`).

It sits in Education, covering Quizzes and assessments. The repository describes itself as: Local-first AI learning workspace — ask, note, review and create around your own materials. Wiki KB, Agents, Skills, creation tools.Private NotebookLM Alternative.AI….

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Quizzes and assessments

Example prompts

  • “/exam-simulator”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Practice Mode
  2. Simulation Mode
  3. Grading Mode
  4. Diagnostic Mode
  5. Printable Mode
  6. HTML Exam Mode

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 24bde40. 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, yaml and html).

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:

    • cdn.tailwindcss.com

    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

Exam Simulator loads about 3.2k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 75 tokens; SKILL.md has 1,367 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~75
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~3.2k

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.

SKILL.md

Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 1,367 words (~3,204 tokens).

“This skill helps the agent generate realistic, structured mock exams for educational and exam-preparation scenarios.”
