Omh Jit Learn

Jit Learn

This is a Hermes-native jit-learn workflow skill.

Why This Exists

jit-learn exists to choose what is worth learning for the user's present problem and convert credible sources into an immediate application path, instead of returning a generic self-help shelf or a popularity list.

Do Not Use When

• The user asks OMH to learn from workflow outcomes, missed routes, or evaluation traces; use workflow-learning.
• The learning goal is already chosen and the user wants a multi-week syllabus, instructional sequence, or assessment plan; use curriculum-design.
• The user supplied a paper, PDF, arXiv entry, or excerpt and wants it explained; use paper-learning.
• The requested output is a typed source candidate inventory or acquisition status rather than a fitted learning brief; use source-finder.
• The research question and target are already scoped and the user wants current facts, citations, or source synthesis rather than choosing what to learn; use research.

Examples

Good example:

• Prompt: What should I learn next to solve my current onboarding blocker? Recommend books, podcasts, creators, and courses I can apply this week.
• Expected behavior: Ask one confirmation question, confirm the immediate target, then prepare a source-backed four-section learning brief ranked by fit and time-to-first-value.
• Why: The user needs target selection and immediate transfer, not a generic curriculum or popularity-ranked resource list.

Bad example:

• Prompt: Design a six-week Python syllabus with weekly assessments.
• Expected behavior: Route to curriculum-design because the target is already chosen and the requested output is a sequenced curriculum.
• Why: Just-in-time target selection should not displace an explicit curriculum-design request.

Completion Checklist

• At least one confirmation question was answered, no turn contained more than one question, and the shared interview ceiling was respected.
• Urgency/trigger, current level, application window, and the target statement are explicit before research.
• Every admitted recommendation is source-gated and popularity signals did not influence admission or rank.
• Books, Podcasts, Creators, and Courses are present with complete fields or an honest empty-section reason.
• Competing targets, filtered-out defaults, unresolved gaps, and one starting action are visible.
• The final status says the brief is prepared and does not claim consumption, learning, application, progress, or blocker resolution.

Recovery Notes

• If a required readiness dimension remains unclear, ask the one answer that most changes the target while the shared round budget remains.
• If the shared interview ceiling is reached, proceed with explicit assumptions and gaps rather than asking another question.
• If sources or links cannot be checked, leave the affected section empty with the retrieval reason instead of adding a generic recommendation.
• If the target becomes a syllabus, supplied-paper explanation, source inventory, already-scoped research question, or OMH self-improvement request, preserve the sibling boundary and route accordingly.

Workflow Lane

• Current lane: Research and company ops (product-docs, source-finder, web-research, research, model-optimization, inference-serving, model-finetuning, research-brief, +20 more) - research, signals, ops, and briefings.
• If intent belongs to another lane, hand back to oh-my-hermes or name the adjacent workflow.

Use When

Use when selecting the highest-leverage immediate learning target for an active blocker before preparing a source-backed Markdown brief for direct application.

Strong routing signals: `jit-learn`, `learn next`, `learn now`, `blocker-specific learning target`, `highest-leverage learning target`, `immediate learning payoff`, `immediately applicable learning brief`, `source-backed learning brief`, `학습 주제`, `도움 되는 학습 주제`, `당장 적용할 학습 목표`, `책 팟캐스트 크리에이터 강의 학습 브리프`

Catalog Metadata

Category: research Phase: learning-target Hermes role: researcher Quality tier: source-gated Reasoning demand: standard

Quality bar:

• Resolve urgency/trigger, current level, and application window with one question per turn, while stopping early once all three are clear after the mandatory first answer.
• Confirm one target in the form Learn X now so I can do/decide Y in context Z by T. before source research.
• Prefer primary, institutional, and credible practitioner sources; rank by specific fit, authority, currency, time-to-first-value, and direct transfer rather than popularity.
• Keep Books, Podcasts, Creators, and Courses visible even when no candidate passes, and explain every empty section instead of padding it.
• For each admitted resource, state title, format, creator/publisher, link, source class, time to first value, specific fit, first application, and applicable link/access/currency caveats.
• Close with competing targets considered, filtered-out defaults, unresolved gaps, and exactly one recommended starting action.

Handoff policy:

Keep reviewed-context interpretation, the bounded one-question-at-a-time interview, target selection, source research, and Markdown brief preparation in Hermes. Do not create a learner profile, take an external action, or claim that a recommendation was consumed, learned, applied, or resolved the blocker.

Required inputs:

• reviewed context
• urgency
• current level
• application window
• time/format constraints

Expected outputs:

• confirmed target statement: Learn X now so I can do/decide Y in context Z by T.
• source-backed Markdown learning brief
• Books section, including an explicit no-qualifying-candidate reason when empty
• Podcasts section, including an explicit no-qualifying-candidate reason when empty
• Creators section, including an explicit no-qualifying-candidate reason when empty
• Courses section, including an explicit no-qualifying-candidate reason when empty
• for every recommendation: title, format, creator/publisher, link, source class, time to first value, specific fit now, first application, and caveats
• competing learning targets, filtered-out defaults, unresolved gaps, and one recommended next action

Artifact expectations:

• prepared Markdown learning brief with observed source links and explicit retrieval gaps when a wrapper captures it

Safety rules:

• Always ask at least one confirmation question before research, exactly one question per turn, even when the initial request appears complete.
• Use the shared deep-interview ceiling of 6 rounds and its early-stop discipline; do not create a second interview budget.
• Use only the current conversation and reviewed or explicitly approved OMH context; never claim hidden Hermes memory or create a persistent learner profile.
• Admit recommendations only from primary, institutional, or credible practitioner evidence whose authority, currency, availability, and link can be checked; report retrieval gaps instead of inventing support.
• Never use bestseller status, ratings, follower counts, charts, generic popularity, or unsupported reputation as admission or ranking evidence.
• Do not purchase, download, enroll, subscribe, contact a creator, bypass a paywall, write to an external system, or imply any external action occurred.
• A prepared brief is not evidence that the user consumed a resource, learned, made progress, applied the advice, or resolved the original blocker.
