Reassign the “Easy” button to skip 1-N learning steps.
Those using the standard “Easy” button functionality do not need to install this add-on.
If your learning process consists of many steps, for example: “Learning steps” = 15s 15s 15s 3m 15s 15s 10m 15s 1h 6h 1d 3d 7d 21d, then it makes sense to change the default behavior of the “Easy” button, as this button interrupts the learning process and skips to the next day, as if for review. The ability to skip some steps when pressing the “Easy” button was needed. In the example above, everything is a step, even ”15s,” which here serves as a loop (“Auto Advance”: 4; 8; Wait for audio - False; Show Answer, Answer Good) for at least 3 cards, which is necessary for better memorization of complex phrases. Although ”15s” is a step, for easy maps, you need to skip longer steps, not shorter ones that act as repetitions.
In an attempt to meet all the requirements, I created this second version of the add-on and implemented a configuration file:
“A_Help?”: “After changes, you don’t need to restart Anki.”
“K_ease”: 3, “K_ease?”: “Multiplier that is applied to a review card’s interval when you rate it Easy.”
“N_lear”: 1, “N_lear?”: “Skipping N learning steps.”
“T_ignore”: 60, “T_ignore?”: “Ignore steps that are <= T seconds.”
If you have any questions or comments, please email me at: andreykaiu@gmail.com (I don’t think there will be any.) since this add-on version 1 was downloaded only 5 times :)

I’ve been looking for an add-on that does exactly this. Thank you! Comment from author Thanks for the feedback. I’m not sure I’ll finish this add-on later.
