## How to use this with Claude
At the start of a study session, point Claude at the relevant lesson file(s)
under the current book folder (e.g. `A1.1/course-book/lesson-05.md` and
`A1.1/workbook/lesson-05.md`), or the whole `A1.1/INDEX.md` for a running
(e.g. `A1.1/lektion-05.md`), or the whole `A1.1/INDEX.md` for a running
summary. Ask Claude to only use vocabulary/grammar that appears in those
files (or earlier lessons) when creating exercises, example sentences, or
corrections — this keeps practice within what I've actually learned.

Each lesson is one combined file rather than separate course-book/workbook
files, because *Menschen*'s workbook exercises constantly reference course
book sections (e.g. "KB 2b") and share the same grammar — splitting them
apart would just duplicate content.
## Adding a new lesson
1. Upload photos or a PDF of the course book / workbook pages for that lesson.
2. Claude extracts content into `lesson-XX.md` using `_template.md`.
1. Get the course book pages, workbook pages, and (if available) the
official Hueber Transkriptionen PDF pages for that lesson — as PDFs,
photos, or a folder path.
2. Claude extracts/summarizes content into `lektion-XX.md` using
`_template.md`: vocabulary (from the workbook's Lernwortschatz page),
grammar boxes, communication patterns, a brief summary of what each
exercise practices (not full exercise text), audio transcripts, and
answer key highlights.
3. Review and correct anything Claude got wrong or over-summarized.
4. Update `INDEX.md` with a one-line entry for the lesson.
5. Commit.
## Audio (listening exercises)
Hueber (the publisher) releases official **Transkriptionen** PDFs for both
the Kursbuch (course book) and Arbeitsbuch (workbook) — these are the
primary source for audio content, not the *Lösungsschlüssel* (answer key,
found at the back of the workbook, which is a different thing). Raw audio
files are **not** stored in this repo (see `.gitignore`); only transcripts
(text) are, since that's what gives Claude context.

Primary workflow — official transcripts:
1. Get the Kursbuch and Arbeitsbuch Transkriptionen PDFs for the relevant book
(A1.1, A1.2, ...) — search "Menschen [level] Kursbuch/Arbeitsbuch
Transkriptionen pdf Hueber", or check the publisher's site.
2. Send/upload the pages for a lesson the same way as course book/workbook
content — Claude extracts the per-track dialogue text into that lesson's
`.md` file under "Audio / Listening".
1. Get the Kursbuch and Arbeitsbuch Transkriptionen PDFs for the relevant
book (A1.1, A1.2, ...).
2. Extract the per-track dialogue text into that lesson's `.md` file under
"Audio / Listening", marked as official-sourced.
3. No review needed for accuracy — these are publisher-official text, not ASR.
Fallback workflow — local ASR (only if no official transcript exists for a
given track, e.g. supplementary listening material):
1. Get the audio files locally (publisher CD/app/download), any folder outside git.
2. Run `scripts/transcribe.py` (uses `faster-whisper` on GPU) to transcribe them:

pip install faster-whisper

python scripts/transcribe.py "<path-to-lesson-audio>" "A1.1/transcripts/lektion-XX"
```
3. Skim the `.txt` output for ASR mistakes (names, numbers, fast speech) and fix them.
4. Reference/paste the transcript into the lesson's `.md` file under "Audio / Listening",
flagged as ASR-generated (the template already does this), or point at the
`transcripts/lektion-XX/*.txt` path — transcripts are small text files so
committing them is fine.
