Documentation

README

Excerpt

textbook

写教材的主 skill（orchestrator）：驱动五阶段流程，管理 .progress.json 状态实现中断可续，在阶段间传递交接契约，最终交付一本有主线、有梯度、可评估的多章节 Markdown 教材。契约、落盘布局、状态机的权威定义见 references/handoff-contract.md（下称"契约文档"）。

学科差异（题型集、验证手段、认知动词、章内段义）不在本 skill 里分支，收拢在学科档案中：阶段 1 判定一次，落盘为 .progress.json 的 subject_profile，逐章原样透传。规格与索引见 references/subject-profile-spec.md。
