Install Cs Foundations
Pick your agent. Every command is ready to paste.
npx skills add foryourhealth111-pixel/Vibe-Skills --skill cs-foundationsThe open skills CLI detects your agents (Claude Code, Cursor, Codex and 70+ more) and installs to the right folder. Add -g to install globally.
01
Install it
Run the command above, or upload the folder in Claude.
02
Ask naturally
Describe the task. Your agent loads cs-foundations when the request matches its description.
03
Name it if needed
If it does not trigger, say “use the cs-foundations skill”. In Codex, type $cs-foundations.

Quick Start
Computer science is built on mathematics. Master these fundamentals:
Core Topics
Discrete Mathematics
- Set theory and operations
- Logic and proof techniques
- Combinatorics and counting
- Number theory basics
- Relations and functions
Computational Thinking
- Problem decomposition
- Abstraction and generalization
- Pattern recognition
- Algorithmic thinking
Formal Logic
- Propositional logic
- Predicate logic
- Proof by induction
- Truth tables and logical equivalence
Learning Path
Week 1: Logic Basics
- Boolean algebra
- Truth tables
- Logical operators
- Inference rules
Week 2: Proof Techniques
- Direct proof
- Proof by contradiction
- Mathematical induction
- Strong induction
Week 3: Set Theory
- Set operations (∪, ∩, complement)
- Cartesian product
- Relations
- Equivalence relations
Week 4: Functions
- Function notation
- Domain, codomain, range
- One-to-one and onto
- Function composition
Week 5: Combinatorics
- Counting principles
- Permutations
- Combinations
- Pigeonhole principle
Week 6: Number Theory
- Modular arithmetic
- Prime numbers
- GCD and Euclidean algorithm
- Congruence
Practice Problems
- Prove by induction that 1+2+...+n = n(n+1)/2
- Prove √2 is irrational
- Show A ∪ (B ∩ C) = (A ∪ B) ∩ (A ∪ C)
- Count functions from {1,2,3} to {a,b}
- Solve: x ≡ 5 (mod 12) and x ≡ 3 (mod 8)
Troubleshooting
| Issue | Root Cause | Resolution |
|---|---|---|
| Proof stuck | Missing case or wrong direction | Check base case, verify induction step |
| Set operation confusion | ∪ vs ∩ mix-up | Draw Venn diagram |
| Counting error | Overcounting duplicates | Distinguish P(n,r) vs C(n,r) |
| Modular arithmetic error | Forgot wraparound | Work with remainders explicitly |
Key Concepts
- Axioms: Statements we assume true
- Theorems: Statements we prove
- Lemmas: Helper theorems
- Corollaries: Results that follow easily
Why It Matters
These foundations enable:
- Understanding algorithm correctness
- Analyzing computational complexity
- Designing new algorithms
- Proving algorithm properties
- Understanding what's computable
Interview Prep
- Explain mathematical induction
- Prove that a function is injective
- Count permutations with constraints
- Solve modular equations
- Apply pigeonhole principle
Tips for Cs Foundations
- • Start a fresh session after installing so your agent picks up the new skill.
- • This skill ships scripts. Read them before the first run, and run it in a project without secrets first.
- • It bundles reference files. The agent reads them only when needed, so they cost no context until then.
- • It is part of a pack with 30 skills. Install only the ones you need with --skill to keep triggers precise.
- • If two skills overlap, mention the one you want by name.
Questions about Cs Foundations
