Claude cli has this, called learning mode, and you can make custom modes to tweak it more

  Ah, cool. Is this meant to be used for learning specifically, or just something that can be toggled whenever you're using Claude to help you with anything?

    https://openai.com/index/chatgpt-study-mode/ https://openai.com/index/chatgpt-study-mode/ Openai released study mode. I don't think it's anything special beyond a custom prompt that tells it to act as a teacher. But it's a good example of what these bots can do if you prompt them right. The bots as they stand seem to be sycophantic and make a lot of assumptions (hallucinations) rather than asking for more clarification or instruction. This isn't really a core truth to bot behaviour, and is more based around adhering to American social norms for corporate communication - deference to authority etc. You can prompt the bots to behave more usefully for coding - one of my tricks is to tell the bot to ask me clarifying questions before writing any code. This prevents it from making assumptions around functionality that I haven't specified in the brief. For non-coding use cases, I like exploring ideas with the bot, and then every now and then prompting it to steel-man the opposing view to make sure I'm not getting dragged down a rabbit hole. Then I can take the best of these ideas and form a conclusion - hegelian dialectics and all that.

  Can you describe how to access this feature? I can't find anything about this online, and I asked Claude on command line and nothing comes up for "learning mode" Seems very cool.

    update: perhaps it is the verbose flag, e.g. `claude --verbose` you were talking about? I like this a lot...
