What it is
This is an Agent Skills package that makes an AI assistant answer questions in the style and reasoning framework of Zhang Xuefeng, a Chinese education commentator known for advice on gaokao applications, graduate exams and career planning. The README describes it as a set of mental models and decision heuristics distilled from books, interviews and public statements, not a quote collection. It is generated by a separate tool, Nuwa.skill, and is meant to be loaded into a compatible AI agent runtime.
- Ask the agent to analyze a major choice from a 'median outcome' perspective
- Get a structured take on whether a graduate exam is worth it given your undergraduate background
- Review the example dialogues in examples/ to see how the persona reasons
- Read the research files in references/research/ to trace where the claims come from
Great for
- Chinese students comparing majors or universities for the gaokao or application season
- Parents looking for a blunt, framework-based perspective on education choices
- People curious how a specific public figure's decision heuristics would apply to their situation
- Readers who want to study how a persona skill is structured (SKILL.md plus research files)
Not ideal for
- Anyone wanting authoritative, verified career or admissions data: the README is built from secondary and interview sources and states no statistics of its own
- Users who need a neutral or balanced view, since the persona is deliberately opinionated and the README itself notes contested reception
- People whose AI runtime does not support Agent Skills and who do not want to paste SKILL.md manually
How to get it
- 1
Install with a package manager
You'll need: An AI agent runtime that supports Agent Skills, such as Claude Code or Codex · Node.js and npx for the one-line installer (implied by the npx command)
Install via the cross-runtime CLI
npx skills add alchaincyf/zhangxuefeng-skillManual install into Claude Code skills folder
git clone https://github.com/alchaincyf/zhangxuefeng-skill ~/.claude/skills/zhangxuefeng-skill/ - 2
Run it
- Run the npx install command, optionally adding -a with your runtime name
- Open your AI agent (for example Claude Code) in a session
- Ask a question such as: 用张雪峰的视角帮我分析这个专业选择
- Check that the response uses the framework of median outcomes and family background as described in the README
- 3
Get the most out of it
- Give the agent concrete details (score, province, family situation, major) because the framework asks follow-up questions and relies on them
- Read examples/demo-conversation.md first to calibrate expectations
- Cross-check any employment or salary claims against official sources, since the persona relies on anecdotal framing
- Explore references/research/ to see the sources behind each mental model
Downloads
Strengths
- Clearly documented mental models and heuristics, so the reasoning is inspectable
- Installs through a standard cross-runtime command and also supports manual setup
- Ships research sources and example conversations alongside the skill
Trade-offs
- Persona-driven advice is strongly opinionated and may not reflect current policy or job market conditions
- Quality depends on the underlying AI runtime; the README does not benchmark outputs beyond its own examples
- The README is truncated in places and the license and author details are only partly shown
