Tutor Setup

Converts PDFs, codebases, or web sources into structured Obsidian study vaults. The smart part is auto-detection: drop it in a folder with package.json and you get onboarding docs for new developers; point it at PDFs and you get concept notes with practice questions. Worth noting it enforces pdftotext for extraction instead of letting Claude read PDFs directly, which saves you from token bloat. The quality checklist and mandatory source mapping are thorough, maybe overly so, but that's the point if you're serious about turning raw material into actual study infrastructure. Ships with templates for MOCs, quick references, and exam traps.

Files

Tutor Setup — Knowledge to Obsidian StudyVault

CWD Boundary Rule (ALL MODES)

NEVER access files outside the current working directory (CWD). All source scanning, reading, and vault output MUST stay within CWD and its subdirectories. If the user provides an external path, ask them to copy the files into CWD first.

Mode Detection

On invocation, detect mode automatically:

Check for project markers in CWD:
- package.json, pom.xml, build.gradle, Cargo.toml, go.mod, Makefile, *.sln, pyproject.toml, setup.py, Gemfile
If any marker found → Codebase Mode
If no marker found → Document Mode
Tie-break: If .git/ is the sole indicator and no source code files (*.ts, *.py, *.java, *.go, *.rs, etc.) exist, default to Document Mode.
Announce detected mode and ask user to confirm or override.
