"Validate the education plugin's quiz, report-library, and teach workspace-root configuration and explain how to change it through Claude Code's plugin configuration prompt. Use when: 'set up education', 'configure education', 'education setup', quiz offers feel wrong, report recall cannot find prior quizzes, or teach workspaces land somewhere unexpected. Actions: check (read-only verification, default and only action — this plugin's entire configuration is native userConfig, so there is nothing an apply could write)."

Purpose
Confirm how /education:quiz-me offers comprehension checks, where generated quiz reports are
stored, and where /education:teach roots its learning workspaces, without editing Claude Code
settings. quiz_policy, report_library_dir, and workspace_root are native userConfig
values. Claude Code prompts for them when the plugin is enabled and owns persistence.
Check-only per the uniform setup contract's userConfig-only carve-out: this plugin's entire
configuration surface is native userConfig, so check (the default and only action) verifies
and reports, and reconfiguration routes through Claude Code's native flow — an apply here
would have nothing to write except the pluginConfigs setup must never touch. Non-interactive:
report and recommend; never block on a question.
Official contract: https://code.claude.com/docs/en/plugins-reference#user-configuration.
check (read-only, the only action)
- Read the rendered
${user_config.quiz_policy},${user_config.report_library_dir}, and${user_config.workspace_root}values from this skill. Do not inspect or editsettings.json,settings.local.json, managed settings, orpluginConfigsdirectly. - Explain the effective
quiz_policy:off— quiz-me never offers a post-work quiz;on-request(default) — offers only when asked;always— offers after each completed change;above-threshold— offers when the change is large;- any other value is treated as
on-requestat runtime.
- Explain the effective report library root:
- empty or unexpanded
report_library_dir— reports live under the plugin's own persistent
data directory; - configured directory outside the consuming project — reports and recall search that checkout;
- configured directory that is
${CLAUDE_PROJECT_DIR}or nested under it — quiz-me's
repo-tree guard refuses it and falls back to${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_DATA}(same effective root
as unset).
- empty or unexpanded
- Explain the effective teach workspace root:
- empty or unexpanded
workspace_root— FIRST read the rung-3 pointer file${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_DATA}/workspace-root: when present and it names an existing directory,
report THAT path as the effective topic-mode root (it persists a prior one-time ask, and
also records the migration-offer outcome); when absent or invalid, report the documented
ladder (project declaration → this setting → one-time ask → OS DocumentsClaude Learning/
home for topic mode → plugin data); codebase-mode workspaces stay under plugin data by
default either way (their lessons can embed private-repo snippets; Documents roots are
often cloud-synced); - configured directory outside the consuming project — both modes root there;
- configured directory that is
${CLAUDE_PROJECT_DIR}or nested under it — teach's
repo-tree guard refuses it (a committed root requires a declaration in the project's own
CLAUDE.md or rules), falling back to the rest of the ladder.
- empty or unexpanded
- State the tradeoff instead of asking: machine-private plugin data (default) versus a dedicated
corpus checkout for long-lived recall across machines. For a repository-backed library,
inspect the consumer's artifact conventions and recommend one portable location. Never
recommend a machine-absolute team path. - If a recommended value differs from the effective one, direct the user to Claude Code's plugin
configuration prompt foreducation(interactive/plugin configure education@<marketplace>any time;
headless,--configapplies only on a fresh install — uninstall then reinstall to
reconfigure). Claude Code owns persistence. Do not hand-edit anypluginConfigskey. - Tell the user to rerun
checkafter reconfiguration — in a fresh session, since the rendered
values are injected at load — then verify and report the effective settings.
Output
Report the current effective quiz_policy, the effective report-library root, any recommended
changes, and whether the user must reconfigure through Claude Code. Do not claim a configuration
change until a rerun observes the new rendered values.
Boundaries
- Do not start a teach, explain, or quiz session; use
/education:teach,/education:explain,
or/education:quiz-me. - Do not write Claude Code settings.
- Do not invent an organization, repository, marketplace, or environment-variable prefix.
