Use when lesson or course content is correct but forgettable and a concept has to LAND: profiles the learner, breaks the blocking false belief, then rebuilds it as epiphany story → named model → grounded analogy → proof → so-what. NOT outcomes, assessment or module order (that is `course-builder`), NOT slide visuals (that is `presentations`).

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 Storytelling — Make the Teaching Land

*Take a concept the student would forget and turn it into one they can't unhear. Profile the learner first, then run every concept through the Expert Secrets machine: epiphany story → named model → grounded analogy → proof → do-this-now → the so-what.*

This skill owns **the teaching narrative**: extracting what a course actually teaches, finding where it stays abstract, and rebuilding each concept so the realization happens *in the student*, emotionally, not just on the slide. It borrows Russell Brunson's *Expert Secrets* frameworks as a **teaching methodology** (this is method, not text reproduction).

Boundaries: `course-builder` decides what the course must prove — outcomes, assessment, module order — and hands you the skeleton; this skill makes each concept inside it land. `presentations` turns the landed lesson into a deck, `design` owns the pixels, `marketing` owns the words that sell the course, and a content-audit/review-content pass diagnoses an existing lesson (run it first, bring its findings here — that pass audits, this one rebuilds).

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add ericrisco/rsc-harness/course-storytelling@sha256:fa4f372abc689ca3

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260729.3ecb845, 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.
