# Reading List Curator

## Overview

Organizes a user-provided reading list by goal, sequence, workload, and decision criteria without adding unsolicited titles.

This skill belongs to the **Reading Planning & Habits** category and has priority **P1**.

## When to Use

Use this skill when the user asks to:

- reading list
- organize books
- what to read first
- reading queue
- book backlog

**Trigger keywords:** reading list, organize books, what to read first, reading queue, book backlog

## Required Inputs

- user-provided book list
- reading goal
- time horizon
- selection criteria or constraints

## Workflow

1. Collect the user's existing titles and goals.
2. Group books by topic, depth, urgency, and dependency.
3. Propose sequencing based on user criteria rather than outside recommendations.
4. Estimate workload and pacing from user constraints.
5. Provide decision rules for adding, pausing, or dropping titles.

## Output Format

The output includes:

1. List inventory
2. Grouping logic
3. Suggested sequence
4. Time/load estimate
5. Decision rules

## Safety & Compliance

- Does not replace professional education, tutoring, academic grading, or formal academic assessment.
- Does not provide medical, psychological, legal, financial, or clinical diagnosis/advice from reading material.
- Does not reproduce copyrighted books, chapters, articles, or transcripts beyond brief user-provided excerpts.
- Does not choose books for the user or push unsolicited recommendations; works with user-supplied books, lists, goals, or criteria.
- Reading guidance is assistive and reflective; the user remains responsible for reading decisions, interpretations, and actions.

Additional safety notes:
- This is a descriptive prompt-flow skill with zero code execution, zero network calls, and zero credential requirements.
- Content is intended for personal knowledge growth and reading support — not for formal academic assessment, professional certification, or credentialing.
- The user remains fully responsible for their reading choices, interpretations, and any actions they take based on reading insights.

## Acceptance Criteria

1. Uses only user-supplied titles unless explicitly asked to classify categories.
2. Explains sequencing criteria transparently.
3. Includes workload and pacing notes.
4. Does not claim any book is objectively required.
5. Leaves final read/drop decisions to the user.
