Study Group Handoff Agent

Merge a study group's split outlines into one consistent, accurate outline.

Study Group Handoff Agent: what goes in, what the agent does and what you get

What it does

Study groups split outlines by topic, and the pieces end up in different formats, with different rule statements and no clear owner. The agent assigns outline sections, collects each member's draft, and checks format, citation style and rule statements against the syllabus and casebook. It lists contradictions between sections, such as two members stating a test differently. It sends each member a fix list and re-checks after edits. It repeats this until the merged outline is consistent. The group leader approves the merged outline before it is shared. Edge case: two members state the elements of adverse possession differently, so the agent quotes both and the casebook.

How it works

Follow the arrows from top to bottom. The orange dashed arrow is the loop: when a check fails, the agent goes back and tries again.

How it decides

A section passes when it matches the format, its rule statements agree with the casebook and with other sections. Conflicts are shown to both authors with the source text.

  • Casebook text decides a conflicting rule statement
  • Missing sections are chased 2 days before the deadline
  • A member gets at most 5 fixes per round
  • Format errors are fixed before content conflicts are reviewed

Make it yours

Every agent is a starting point. You choose these settings for your own situation.

  • Format rules for the outline
  • Days before deadline to chase (default 2)
  • Maximum fixes per member per round
  • Sources treated as final authority

What keeps you in control

It always asks you first

  • Group leader approves the merged outline
  • Group leader approves reminders to members

Hard limits

  • Never rewrites a member's content without them
  • Never shares the outline outside the group

It stops when

  • Done: merged outline approved
  • Stop: deadline passes with open conflicts, so the leader decides

An example run

What happensThe group had five sections due on Friday. The agent found that two members wrote the adverse possession elements differently, one with five and one with four. The check failed, so it quoted both and the casebook page and sent fix lists. After edits, the sections agreed on four elements with an exception noted. The leader approved the merged outline.
