gradeobjectGrade range object with 'start' and 'end' representing INFERRED grade level or range. Values '0'-'15'. End >= start. ALWAYS infer grade from conversation context even when using selected text. GRADE MAPPING: K/Pre-K/Kindergarten → '0' | Elementary → '0'-'5' | Primary/Lower Elementary → '0'-'2' | Upper Elementary → '3'-'5' | Middle School/Junior High → '6'-'8' | High School → '9'-'12' | Freshman→'9', Sophomore→'10', Junior→'11', Senior→'12' | AP/Advanced Placement → '10'-'12'. INFER FROM COMPLEXITY: sight words/basic→K-2 | simple definitions→3-5 | subject-specific terms→6-8 | technical vocabulary→9-12. Example: {start: '6', end: '8'}, {start: '9', end: '9'}
subjectstringThe subject area INFERRED from the flashcard topic. Users rarely specify subjects directly—you must determine it from context. ALWAYS infer subject from conversation context even when using selected text. KEYWORD MAPPING: ELA/Language Arts/Reading/Writing/Grammar/Vocabulary → English | Math/Algebra/Geometry/Calculus/Trigonometry → Mathematics | Coding/Programming/Computer Science → Computers | PE/Gym/Fitness/Sports → Physical Ed | Music/Band/Choir/Drama/Theater/Dance → Performing Arts | Art/Drawing/Painting → Arts | Spanish/French/German/Foreign Language → World Languages | Civics/Government/Economics → Social Studies | US History/World History/Ancient History → History | Maps/Continents/Countries/Climate → Geography | Photosynthesis/Cells/DNA/Genetics/Ecology → Biology | Elements/Reactions/Periodic Table → Chemistry | Force/Motion/Energy/Gravity → Physics | General Science/Earth Science/STEM → Science. Examples: 'algebra terms' → Mathematics, 'cell biology' → Biology, 'Spanish vocabulary' → World Languages, 'grammar rules' → English.
