Follow the "Create a course" procedure in `AGENTS.md` (Contributing section). Read
`docs/course-format.md` first, and write no file before the author approves the outline.
Every course credits its authors from `courses/authors.yaml` (default `lessonfolk` for the
maintainer's courses); never invent an author's links.
To change a course that already exists (add, revise or reorder lessons), use `edit-course` instead.
