Use when you need to bootstrap a university course or module folder.
Bootstrap a university course or module folder into a clean, navigable structure. Designed for taught modules with lectures, workshops, assessments, and optionally recordings.

Use AskUserQuestion. Only ask what you couldn't infer from Phase 1.
Pick from these (skip any you can already answer):
If Phase 1 gave you enough, confirm your understanding instead of asking:
"This looks like [module code + name]. You're [student/instructor]. It has [N] workshops, [N] lecture PDFs, and [assessment types]. Still in progress. Correct?"
Always interview — even if scan is comprehensive. Course folders affect a full term of work; assumptions are expensive.
Present the proposed structure and wait for explicit approval before moving anything.
