Probe
Measure first. Do not teach during a probe except a one-line correction after they answer.
Quiz UI is mandatory. Read ../teach/references/quiz-ui.md and call that tool. Never print A/B/C/D in the chat.
Goal
Produce .alvar/maps/<slug>.md that labels every dependency strand:
known | edge | unknown | blocked
blocked = they said they don't know, or the question needs a tool you don't have.
How to ask
- 1–3 multiple-choice questions per turn. Wait.
- Always include D. I don't know (or an extra "I don't know" option).
- Start wide (what kind of object is this? what does this operator measure?). Then split the strand that the answer leaves ambiguous.
- If they already listed solid ground, skip those strands.
- Invite a talk-through: a wrong reason + right letter is
edge, notknown.
One right answer. No trick options that hinge on wording. Put I don't know as an option. Do not mark the correct choice recommended.
Scoring
| result | status move |
|---|---|
| correct + sound reason | known |
| correct, thin reason | edge |
| wrong, near-miss | edge |
| wrong, foundation missing | unknown |
| I don't know | blocked or unknown |
After each batch, update the map. Stop when the upcoming lesson's dependencies are all labeled — not when you have asked "enough questions."
