  • Markdown instructions

    A SKILL.md file the model loads on demand, so it only costs tokens when a request actually matches.

  • Works with any LLM

    AI skills are plain Markdown, not provider-specific code, so this works with GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model.

  • Self-contained

    Everything the model needs lives in the instructions — no extra files to sync.

  • Open source

    Published by genspark-ai on GitHub. Read the source before you install it.

Installation

Install the Quiz Maker AI skill in TypingMind to use it with any LLM, or drop it into another agent that reads SKILL.md.

1

Install in TypingMind

TypingMind installs a skill straight from its GitHub folder — it reads SKILL.md, bundles the resource files, and stores the result locally.

  1. Open the app and go to Plugins → Skills.
  2. Choose "Install from GitHub".
  3. Paste the skill folder URL below and confirm.
    https://github.com/genspark-ai/genoffice/tree/main/skills/recommended/quiz-maker
  4. Enable the skill in any chat where you want it available.
Plugins → Skills → Add skill → From GitHub URL, then paste the folder URL and press Continue.

Install in another agent

Any agent that reads the Agent Skills format can use this skill — copy the folder into that agent's skills directory.

Claude Code — .claude/skills
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/genspark-ai/genoffice.git /tmp/genoffice
mkdir -p .claude/skills
cp -r /tmp/genoffice/skills/recommended/quiz-maker .claude/skills/quiz-maker
Restart Claude Code after copying so it picks up the new skill.

Use it in TypingMind

Enable Quiz Maker in any TypingMind chat and the model takes it from there. Its name and description sit in the system prompt, and the moment a request matches, the model loads the full instructions itself — you never invoke it by hand, and it costs no tokens until it is actually used.

The model loads Quiz Maker on its own as soon as a request matches it.

Works with any AI model

AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so Quiz Maker is not tied to the model it was written for. Install it once in TypingMind and use it with GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama, or a local model you run yourself — all on your own API keys.

  • Loaded only when it is needed

    The system prompt carries just the name and description. The instructions are fetched on the first matching request, so an idle skill costs nothing.

  • Switch models mid-chat

    Because the skill is instructions rather than code, changing model does not break it — the next model reads the same SKILL.md.

Skill instructions

This is the SKILL.md content the model loads. Read it before installing — a skill is instructions your model will follow.

You are a test-writing specialist. The user gives you the knowledge points and the difficulty (optionally grade level, number of questions, time limit, preferred question types); you deliver a test paper document with its answer key and explanations, plus a question-type distribution table when needed.

Workflow

  1. Confirm the paper parameters (ask once for whatever is missing): grade level and subject, the list of knowledge points, total marks and time limit, question types and the count of each, difficulty split (for example easy:medium:hard = 5:3:2), and whether the paper must map to a textbook chapter. If the user only gives a topic without a count, default to a 30-minute classroom quiz of 12-15 questions.
  2. Draft the test blueprint first: list the distribution "knowledge point x question type x difficulty x marks" in the reply and have the user confirm before writing questions, so the coverage does not turn out skewed at the end.
  3. Write the questions: each one carries its number, marks, knowledge point and difficulty. Multiple-choice distractors come from typical mistakes, never "none of the above"; calculation questions must work out to integers or tidy results; open-ended questions get marking points, not just a model answer. Every knowledge point is covered by at least two question types.
  4. Build the document as a Word document with the document tools available here. Title it like "[Subject] [Scope] Test":
    • Paper section: header (subject / time limit / total marks / name line), then one section per question type with the count and marks in the section title, then each question with its number, stem and answer space.
    • Answer key and explanations under a separate level-1 heading (or as a separate Word document if the user asks): for each question the answer, worked steps, common-pitfall note and knowledge point.
    • The paper body contains no answers or hints of any kind.
  5. If the user wants a question-type distribution or coverage analysis, build it as an Excel workbook with the spreadsheet tools available here, with columns: question number / type / knowledge point / difficulty / marks / answer; at the bottom, formulas total the share of marks per difficulty and per knowledge point.

Rules

  • Questions are original or adapted, never copied from the textbook; for adapted questions the explanation notes the type of question they were adapted from.
  • Within a section order from easy to hard; the last section may hold a comprehensive question.
  • When a subject fact (formula, date, definition) is uncertain, swap the question rather than force it.
  • Correct options in multiple-choice spread evenly across A-D, never the same letter three questions running.
  • Section marks must sum to the total; check the arithmetic before delivering.

Output

  • Paper: the paper name is the level-1 heading, sections are numbered with Roman numerals (I, II, III), questions with consecutive Arabic numerals; multiple-choice options A-D one per line; blanks shown as underlines.
  • Explanations: numbered to match the paper, each in the form answer, explanation, common pitfall, knowledge point, with the worked steps on separate lines.
  • The blueprint is a table in the reply: rows are knowledge points, columns are question types, cells read "count/marks".
  • The reply body carries only the blueprint, the difficulty-split note and what can be adjusted; it does not paste the questions.

After delivering, say in a sentence or two how the difficulty is split and how the knowledge points are covered, and suggest what can be adjusted (adding or removing questions, reweighting a knowledge point).

Why use Quiz Maker on TypingMind?

Because you install it once and use it with any model. Quiz Maker is plain Markdown rather than provider-specific code, so the same skill runs on GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model — and you can switch model mid-chat without it breaking. TypingMind runs on your own API keys, so you pay providers directly instead of a per-seat subscription, and your skills and chats stay in your own storage.

How do I install Quiz Maker in TypingMind?

Open Plugins → Skills → Install from GitHub in TypingMind and paste https://github.com/genspark-ai/genoffice/tree/main/skills/recommended/quiz-maker. TypingMind reads its SKILL.md and installs it as a skill you can enable per chat.

Which AI models can use Quiz Maker?

Any model you connect in TypingMind. AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, and local models can all load this skill when a request matches it.

How many AI models can I use with Quiz Maker?

As many as you like. As long as a model supports skills, you can use Quiz Maker with it — GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama and more — all on TypingMind with your own API keys.

Is the Quiz Maker AI skill free?

Yes. It is published on GitHub by genspark-ai under the Apache-2.0 license. You only pay your own AI provider for the tokens you use.

What are AI skills?

An AI skill is a reusable instruction bundle that teaches an AI model how to do one specific task. It follows the open Agent Skills format: a SKILL.md file with a name and description, plus any scripts, templates or reference files the model may need. The model reads the instructions only when your request matches the skill, so an installed skill costs nothing until it is used.

How are AI skills different from plugins or MCP servers?

A plugin or MCP server gives a model new tools to call — code that runs somewhere and returns a result. An AI skill gives the model knowledge and process instead: how to approach a task, which steps to follow, what good output looks like. Skills are plain Markdown, so they need no server, no API key and no runtime, and they work with any model.
