Athena: topic → pre-test → path → final exam into Obsidian

You want a bachelor-depth path without inventing a curriculum by hand.

What hurt

navydoc001 moved knowledge acquisition into a Grok Bot named Athena after an earlier OpenClaw + NotebookLM setup. Everything saves to Obsidian and a NAS. He published the prompt he uses.

What to install or create

Author-quoted prompt: give a topic; Athena sources books, websites, YouTube, and social media toward bachelor-equivalent depth; builds a pre-test for baseline knowledge; builds a pathway for your timeframe; finishes with a final exam. Tip-only outside the quoted prompt — do not invent extra curriculum rules.

Bots

  • Athena

    Builds degree-style learning paths with pre-test, pathway, and final exam; writes into Obsidian/NAS.

Plugins

  • None on day one. Follow the first-run steps.

Files

  • Obsidian vault (and optional NAS) as the save target.

Routines

  • None on the first run. Watch one manual pass first.

The prompt

Author-quoted Athena brief

Quoted from @navydoc001 https://x.com/navydoc001/status/2096403957560050084

Last line is our approval fence: Never send, post, spend, or buy without my explicit yes.

While I am working on consulting and social media, I would like to construct Athena. The intent is to give it a topic and it will source books, websites, youtube, and social media for the knowledge equivalent to a bachelors degree in that subject. It should develop a pre-test to determine what my current, baseline knowledge is, a knowledge acquisition pathway based on that and the indicated timeframe, and a final exam to ensure that the knowledge transfer was successful.

Everything is saved to Obsidian and the NAS.

Never send, post, spend, or buy without my explicit yes.

First run

  1. 1Read https://x.com/navydoc001/status/2096403957560050084 (full prompt also in the note on that post).
  2. 2Create an Athena bot and paste the author-quoted brief into the profile.
  3. 3Point Athena at your Obsidian vault (and NAS if you use one) as the only save target.
  4. 4Give one topic and a timeframe. Take the pre-test honestly, then follow the pathway.
  5. 5Sit the final exam Athena builds. Keep or discard sources yourself — do not auto-trust the reading list.

Approval fence

Do not buy courses, post publicly, or spend without your yes. Review sourced links before you trust them.

What to tweak

Steal the prompt and the Obsidian/NAS sink. You still judge whether the sources and exam are good enough.
