## What it does

The plugin evaluates books and PDF files supplied by the user. It breaks down text into claims, reasons, and concrete evidence. Each extracted point receives one of four confidence ratings alongside an evidence ledger.

Users can switch between five analysis modes: `quick`, `deep`, `map`, `feynman`, and `book`. The `feynman` option explains difficult conclusions in plain words via teach-back exercises. The `map` mode organizes related concepts into structured knowledge diagrams.

It works only on local files. It will not search the open web for external material.

## Install
