+# loops
+
+A colorful, interactive CLI that turns **Claude Code** or **Codex** into a personal tutor. It maps a topic, surveys it broadly, then takes you deep one area at a time, and it builds a folder of markdown notes with diagrams, equations and figures as you go.
+
+```bash
+npm i -g learn-loops
+loops
+```
+
+Requires Node 20+ and either the `claude` or `codex` CLI installed and logged in. If `loops` isn't found after install, add npm's global bin folder to your `PATH` (`npm prefix -g`, then `<that>/bin`).
+
+## How it teaches
+
+1. **Profile first**: the first run asks how you learn (examples vs. theory, diagrams, tone, quiz difficulty, Socratic or not, session length) and tailors every prompt.
+2. **Launch screen**: each time you start, a quick energy/time check-in, then reopen a topic you've started or begin something new.
+3. **Brain dump**: you write what you already know, which activates prior knowledge and sets the starting level.
+4. **Map**: the whole territory as areas, concepts and a prerequisite graph (`map.md`, mermaid mindmap + flowchart, also drawn in the terminal).
+5. **Survey**: a short lesson per area, so you get the basic idea of everything before depth.
+6. **Deep dive**: you pick an area; it plans 4-7 lessons that build on each other, each with worked examples and figures.
+7. **Every lesson**: guess first, read a small chunk, "explain it differently" on demand, predict-then-reveal, quiz with confidence ratings, then an **explain-it-in-your-own-words** teach-back to a persona (a curious 12-year-old, a skeptical expert...) who asks a follow-up.
+8. **Think deeper**: trade-offs, failure modes, scale and second-order effects, with push-back, rotating through different lenses; an end-of-area **application challenge** with no single right answer.
+9. **When you're stuck**: a short diagnosis finds the mental model that's wrong, re-teaches that, and re-tests it.
+10. **Remembering**: SM-2 spaced repetition, a warm-up before each session, interleaved mixed quizzes (weakest first, confident mistakes first), a **mistake journal**, and a **streak**.
+
+## Equations, physics diagrams and plots
+
+Technical lessons use real typesetting, not ASCII approximations:
+
+- **Equations** are written in LaTeX and rendered with [MathJax](https://www.mathjax.org) (physics, ams, mhchem and cancel packages: `\ket{}`, `\pdv{}{}`, `\vb{}`, `\ce{}`), then rasterised with [resvg](https://github.com/RazrFalcon/resvg). No browser or LaTeX install needed.
+- **Physical diagrams** (free-body, circuits, optics, fields) are drawn as SVG by the tutor, validated and sanitised, then shown inline.
+- **Function plots** are exact: the tutor supplies expressions, [mathjs](https://mathjs.org) evaluates them, and `loops` draws the chart.
+- **Inline display** works in iTerm2, WezTerm, Kitty, Ghostty and VS Code's terminal. Elsewhere you get a Unicode fallback: stacked fractions, roots, sums and bra-kets for equations, braille line art for plots. SVG diagrams need an image-capable terminal or the saved file.
+- Saved notes keep `$$TeX$$` (rendered by GitHub, VS Code and Obsidian) and write each figure to `figures/*.svg` with a normal image link.
+- Flowcharts, sequence, state and class diagrams (mermaid) are drawn in the terminal with [beautiful-mermaid](https://github.com/lukilabs/beautiful-mermaid).
+
+Override detection with `LOOPS_IMAGES=iterm|kitty|off`.
