learn
The orchestrator and entry point. Sets up the workspace, captures your start and target level, and routes to the next step.
Companion app · in development
Learn anything, to mastery.
An evidence-based learning loop that runs on your own Claude: research, teaching, assessment, spaced review, and a capstone.
A portable, evidence-based way to actually learn.
Point Lyceum at calculus, the cello, contract law, or Rust. It researches the domain into a teachable map, places you at the right level, and builds a curriculum ordered by what depends on what.
Retrieval practice
Spaced repetition
Interleaving
Deliberate practice
Mastery learning
Backward design
Mastery gating
You advance only when you have actually demonstrated competence, not when you feel ready.
Durable memory
Recall first, then review on a schedule, so what you learn stays learned long after the lesson.
Nine coordinated skills, in order.
Each step reads the course state, does its job, and writes it back, so the loop is resumable, transferable, and honest about what you have mastered.
02
research-topic
Deep research into a teachable knowledge map: concepts, prerequisites, misconceptions, and authentic tasks.
03
placement-test
A roughly ten-item adaptive test that recommends the right level for you to start from.
04
build-curriculum
A backward-designed curriculum across your level band, ordered by a prerequisite graph.
05
teach-lesson
Teaches the current module concrete-first, checks understanding, closes with free recall, and seeds reviews.
06
create-assignment
A level-appropriate assignment and rubric, calibrated to the edge of your ability.
07
assess-understanding
Grades a submission, gives feedback that teaches, updates mastery, and schedules reviews.
08
review-session
Spaced-repetition review of everything that is due, the biggest long-term retention lever in the loop.
09
capstone
An authentic, defended, rubric-scored mastery project, and certification.
It is a cycle, not a checklist. Steps 05 to 08 (teach, assign, assess, review) repeat per module, with assessment and review feeding back into teaching until you reach mastery. Then the course closes at the capstone.
Built so your progress cannot lie or vanish.
A few architectural ideas keep Lyceum durable, honest, and yours.
01
State, not conversation
Every step reads manifest.json, acts, and writes it back. Routing is computed from disk, so a course can pause, resume across sessions, and survive a context reset.
02
Your folder is the save file
All course state lives in plain files you can copy anywhere. Move a course between machines by copying a folder. No account, no lock-in, no database to lose.
03
One writer for mastery
Only assessment and review write mastery scores, so feeling fluent never inflates the data. The curriculum is data, not hardcoded logic, so Lyceum stays fully subject-agnostic.
