Session Persistence

Quiz sessions are automatically saved to ~/.claude-quiz/:

~/.claude-quiz/
  sessions/
    2026-01-12_143052.json   # Individual session data
    2026-01-12_150623.json
  stats.json                  # Aggregate statistics

Session Data Includes:

  • Profile and topics selected
  • Questions answered (correct/incorrect/skipped)
  • Time taken
  • Category breakdown
  • Wrong questions with correct answers

Dynamic Question Generation

When the --dynamic flag is enabled and the Claude CLI is installed, the quiz can generate additional questions on-the-fly using claude -p:

node src/index.js -d

This requires:

  • Claude CLI installed (npm install -g @anthropic-ai/claude-code)
  • Active API key configured

Dynamic questions supplement the static pool when:

  • Static pool is exhausted for selected topics
  • User requests fresh questions
  • Variety is needed for repeated quizzes

Contributing Questions

We welcome question contributions! See templates/question-template.yaml for the format.

Quality Guidelines

Good questions test:

  • Practical application ("When should you...")
  • Decision-making ("Which approach is best for...")
  • Understanding ("Why does Claude...")
  • Troubleshooting ("What would you do if...")

Avoid:

  • Trivia ("What is the exact command syntax...")
  • Pure memorization ("List all keyboard shortcuts...")
  • Version-specific details that may change

Submitting Questions

  1. Fork the repository
  2. Add questions to the appropriate questions/XX-category.yaml file
  3. Follow the template format exactly
  4. Ensure doc_reference points to valid sections
  5. Submit a PR with description of added questions

Troubleshooting

"No questions available"

  • Check that selected topics have questions in questions/ directory
  • Verify YAML files are valid (use a YAML validator)
  • Try selecting different topics or "All topics"

"Cannot find module 'yaml'"

cd quiz
npm install

Quiz hangs on input

  • Ensure you're running in an interactive terminal
  • Try pressing Enter if stuck
  • Use Ctrl+C to exit and restart
