Click on "Install Server".
Wait a few minutes for the server to deploy. Once ready, it will show a "Started" state.
In the chat, type
@followed by the MCP server name and your instructions, e.g., "@Interleaved Learning MCP Servercreate a 60-minute study plan for calculus, physics, and statistics using the ABCABC pattern"
That's it! The server will respond to your query, and you can continue using it as needed.
Here is a step-by-step guide with screenshots.

📚 Documentation
What is Interleaved Learning?
Interleaved learning is a cognitive strategy backed by decades of research that involves mixing different topics during study sessions instead of focusing on one topic at a time (blocked practice).
Research-Backed Benefits
Benefit | Improvement |
Long-term retention | Up to 43% better |
Concept discrimination | Significantly improved |
Knowledge transfer | Enhanced application |
Problem-solving | More flexible approaches |
"Interleaving is one of the most powerful learning strategies available, yet remains underutilized." — Rohrer & Taylor, 2007
