Training Recommendation Engine
How It Works
MrC generates recommendations based on:
- What the student is currently working on (from board/asks)
- What level they’re at in each track
- What gaps their tasks imply
Recommendation Logic
If working on electrical tasks → Electrical Level 1 or 2
| Task tag | Recommended level |
|---|---|
| battery, wiring, PDB, breaker | Electrical Level 1 |
| board build, PCM, CAN, PWM, crimping | Electrical Level 2 |
| troubleshooting, diagnosis | Electrical Level 3 |
If working on mechanical tasks → Mechanical Level 1 or 2
| Task tag | Recommended level |
|---|---|
| chassis, actuator, drive | Mechanical Level 1 |
| advanced mechanisms | Mechanical Level 2 |
If working on pneumatic tasks → Pneumatics Level 1 or 2
| Task tag | Recommended level |
|---|---|
| compressor, tank, solenoid, cylinder | Pneumatics Level 1 |
| system design | Pneumatics Level 2 |
Level Completion Criteria
Electrical Level 1
- Can identify Battery, PDB, Main Breaker, PCM, Radio, Motor Controllers
- Understands wire gauge (AWG 6 = thick, AWG 14 = thin)
- Understands complete circuit = positive + negative wire
- Passed Electrical Level 1 test
Electrical Level 2
- Can build a complete board with PCM
- Understands CAN vs PWM signaling
- Demonstrated crimping skills
- Demonstrated soldering skills
- Passed Electrical Level 2 test
Mechanical Level 1
- Understands chassis fundamentals
- Can identify actuators
- Passed Mechanical Level 1 test
Pneumatics Level 1
- Can identify all pneumatic components
- Understands how air pressure works in the system
- Passed Pneumatics Level 1 test
Completions and Notifications
When a Student Says “I Finished X”
- Log the completion in their profile (Completions Log table)
- If it matches a training level → update their level status
- If it completes a badge requirement → notify via 2890-bot: “[Name] earned the [Badge Name] badge!”
- Recommend the next logical step
When a Student Mentions a Badge
- Add to Achievements Earned table in their profile
- Include date and any notes
MrC Notification Triggers
| Event | Action |
|---|---|
| Student earns first badge | Announce to 2890-bot: “[Name] just earned [Badge]! 🦅“ |
| Student completes a level | Announce: “[Name] is now Level [N] in [Track]!” |
| Student stuck on related task | Surface gap: “[Name] working on [task] but hasn’t started [recommended level]“ |
For 2890-bot: How to Route Questions
When a student asks “what should I work on?”:
- Check their profile in
/entities/students/[name].md - Look at their current task tags
- Match tags to recommended level above
- Tell them the next logical step
When a student asks a question they don’t know:
- Check if the answer is in the training slides
- If yes → give the answer + “you’re ready for Level X”
- If no → Oracle push to MrC
MrC’s Role
MrC monitors:
- Student questions that route through 2890-bot
- Board activity for task gaps
- Ferry system for knowledge delivery
MrC delivers:
- Personalized next-step recommendations
- Training material answers
- Gap surfacing when students hit blockers
