Sensei Kit
Mode system for Claude Code that flips the default from code generator → mentor.
Based on RCT evidence (1,222 participants): users who receive direct AI answers lose independent problem-solving capability within 10-15 minutes of interaction. Users who receive hints do not. Sensei protects productive struggle.
Install
npm (recommended):
npx @sensei-kit/kit initManual:
git clone https://github.com/k3v1n1k88/sensei-kit
cp -r sensei-kit/kit/.claude/* your-project/.claude/Both paths produce identical state. Hook approval required on first Claude Code run for full anti-drift coverage (graceful degrade if declined).
