Build and maintain the Quarto course website the lecture decks hang off: landing page, week table, site theme, navbar, handout hook, publishing to GitHub Pages. TRIGGER on "course website", "syllabus page", "week table", "add week 4 to the site", "link the new deck on the site", "publish the course site", "GitHub Pages for my course". Writing or repairing a deck is teaching-lecture.

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

# Course website

One Quarto website project per course, per semester. It holds the page students
bookmark, a row for every week, the theme that makes the site and the decks read
as one system, and the publish path to GitHub Pages.

The boundary with `teaching-lecture` is hard. That skill owns a deck: slide
staging, the teaching blocks, figures, pacing, the fit gate. This skill owns the
site: `_quarto.yml`, `index.qmd`, the site theme, the navbar, handout wiring, and
publishing. `teaching-lecture` carries a short course-website section for the case
where someone arrives from the deck side. `teaching-lecture/SKILL.md` owns the
deck-level YAML and this skill owns only the site-level files.

The measured numbers below come from the example course this repo's `examples/`
lecture was extracted from; the mechanisms are what transfer to yours.

## Layout

```
~/teaching/<course>/
  _quarto.yml                  # project, website, navbar, format, post-render
  index.qmd                    # title, subtitle, instructor line, week table
  _extensions/starter/         # the deck format, installed once by `quarto add`

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add ericluo04/claude-academic-workflow/course-site@sha256:f0f6ce24970e2f31

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260906.c5244e4, 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.
