Description

Claude Code plugin that generates individualized knowledge systems from conversation. You describe how you think and work, have a conversation and get a complete second brain as markdown files you own.

Builds up to a goal in a field you have no expertise in: splits it into the foundations that goal actually needs, mobilizes what you already hold, learns what is missing, and leaves every solved path behind for the next goal. Nothing is called done until a check passes.
