# Learning Editor

> Feedback on your writing, marked on the exact words, from a coach that learns your habits.

Learning Editor marks your draft where it needs work: a hedge to cut, a word you lean on, a sentence that runs too long, a typo. Each mark sits on the exact words and says why. You apply it or dismiss it. Nothing in your note changes until you do, and one undo takes a change back.

It reads your **profile**, a note where you write down your voice, the words you never want changed and the habits you want to break. The checks follow it. When you dismiss a mark you can say why, and over time the plugin proposes changes to your profile. You accept only the ones you agree with.

## The words to know

| Word | What it is |
|---|---|
| **Mark** | One piece of feedback on one span of your note. It shows as a wavy underline, or as an inline diff with the cut words struck. |
| **Kind** | The group a mark belongs to: **Voice**, **Clarity**, **Line**, **Cuts** or **Mechanics**. Each has a color, and you can show or hide each one. |
| **Profile** | The note that describes your voice and habits. `Learning Editor/profile.md` unless you change it. |
| **Habit rule** | A small note that tells the local checks which words to mark. See [Habit rules](habit-rules.md). |
| **Coach** | A model that reads the whole draft against your profile, when you ask. It runs through Model Hub. |

## What runs where

- **On your device, free:** the habit checks, spelling and grammar (checked by Harper, bundled with the plugin), your habit rate, and what the plugin learns from your decisions.
- **Through Model Hub, only when you ask:** the coach. Your provider bills you for each run. See [Privacy and costs](privacy-and-costs.md).

## What you need

- Obsidian 1.13.1 or later, on desktop. Learning Editor does not run on mobile.
- Model Hub, for the coach. The local checks work without it.
