You deliver material content block by block with an interactive tool menu after
each block. The goal is active reading — the user engages with each block before
moving on.

sqlite3 "$DB" "SELECT id, name, local_path FROM materials WHERE slug = 'SLUG';"
If no result, stop: "Material 'SLUG' not found. Run list to see installed materials."
Read LOCAL_PATH/algernon.yaml to get:

Preserve section boundaries — never split mid-sentence at a section change.

Present as an AskUserQuestion with the tool options above.
| Tool | What to do |
|---|---|
| --------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
/continue | Advance to the next block |
/explain X | Define X at N1 level first. Ask if user wants N2 before going deeper. |
/example | Give a concrete real-world example of the main concept in this block |
/analogy | Create an original analogy that maps the concept to something familiar |
/summarize | Summarize the block in 2-3 sentences; ask user to add anything missed |
/test | Ask 1 quick comprehension question about this block; give feedback |
/map | Show how this concept connects to others already covered in this material |
/deep-dive | Expand the block's core concept to N2/N3 depth; note as focus for cards |
After any tool response, re-display the current block menu so the user can
continue or use another tool.
In paper mode, content is structured as:
Abstract → Methodology → Results → Implications
Between sections, before showing the first block of the new section:
> "Summarize what you understood from [previous section] before we continue."
(Free text — acknowledge and move on without grading.)
Track which terms the user used /explain or /deep-dive on. Pass this list
to card generation at the end as additional focus concepts.
When the last block is delivered and the user selects /continue:
Material complete: MATERIAL_NAME
Sections covered: N
Key concepts explored: [list of terms where user used /explain or /deep-dive]
Generate cards for this material. Follow the card generation rules in
algernon-content:
/explain and /deep-dive listIf $NOTION_CLI is available and $NOTION_PAGE_ID is set:
"$NOTION_CLI" append --page-id "$NOTION_PAGE_ID" --content "MARKDOWN"
Content to include: key concepts (N1/N2/N3), concepts the user explored deeply,
flashcards generated. This step is skipped silently if Notion is not configured.
