About EduAgentsKit
EduAgentsKit is a free, open-source set of AI skills for the lesson-prep side of teaching, built so teachers stay in charge.
Why this project exists
Teachers spend a lot of time preparing: planning, writing, adapting, and formatting materials. Much of that work follows familiar patterns, and AI tools can help with first drafts. But teachers need helpers that fit how teaching actually works, that are open about what they do, and that never need student data.
EduAgentsKit exists to offer that: a shared, open set of skills that any teacher can read, change, and use with the AI tool their school allows. No server, no account, no code to run, just plain-text instructions in the open Agent Skills format.
What we believe
Teachers know best.
The tools support professional judgment. They never replace it.
Openness builds trust.
Anyone can read every skill.
Privacy comes first.
Good lesson prep shouldn’t need student data.
Free to use.
The kit costs nothing, so any teacher can try it.
Better together.
Teachers’ feedback shapes what gets built.
What EduAgentsKit is, and isn’t
| EduAgentsKit is | EduAgentsKit isn’t |
|---|---|
| Is: 11 free, open-source skills and 3 optional agents (MIT License) | Isn’t: An AI tool, chatbot, or app of its own: you bring your own AI tool |
| Is: Written for teachers’ preparation work | Isn’t: A tool for students to use directly |
| Is: Plain-text instructions you can read and edit | Isn’t: A guided app with forms. Results depend on the AI tool you use |
| Is: Standards-agnostic: works from the codes you give it | Isn’t: A source of standard codes. It never makes one up |
| Is: A starting point you review and adapt | Isn’t: A replacement for your judgment or your curriculum |
| Is: Built and improved in the open | Isn’t: A paid product or subscription |
How the project works
EduAgentsKit is developed in the open on GitHub by the EduAgentsKit contributors. Anyone can read every skill, report problems, suggest new skills, and propose changes. Every skill shares the same guardrails, and automated checks confirm each skill file is correctly formatted. [TBD: governance or maintainer model, if the owner wants to describe it (Q-GOV-1)]

Where things stand
The first version is public: 11 skills, 3 agents, setup notes for five AI tools, and three worked examples. It’s early (version 0.1.0 in the repository), and the skills haven’t been tested live in any AI tool yet. That’s the next step, and teachers’ reports will shape what changes. [TBD: roadmap link, if any (Q-STATUS-1)]
