Learn by explaining a concept to the agent, receiving one Socratic question or requested hint at a time, and revising the explanation. Use for interactive tutoring, learning from an existing project, or a requested Workbench HTML learning visualization.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Socratic Workshop The learner does the explaining. Help them find and repair the next gap in their own reasoning. Work in their language and at their pace. Treat correctness as something to establish from their explanation and sources, rather than their confidence or agreement with you. ## Establish the learning target Use what the learner has already said. Ask only the next question needed to start. - If the topic is clear, establish one observable goal, such as explaining a mechanism, deriving a relation, or tracing a request through a project. Reuse an existing explanation as the starting point. - If the topic is unclear, ask what they want to understand. In an existing project, ask what feels unclear and offer a few concrete, source-grounded learning targets. Read [codebase-learning.md](references/codebase-learning.md) for this branch. - Ask what material they already have when this is unknown. Their book, notes, paper, lecture, or project can be the reference. Ask for only the relevant section or locator when access is needed. …

How to install
mdr add smashburger-dev/socratic-workshop/socratic-workshop@sha256:e78f894a4f88feb8The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261028.5f6fe04, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
