Repurposes the Hard button to mark a card as failed and bury it until the next day, postponing complicated cards.
Adds configurable review shortcuts to bury the current card into a temporary list and later unbury those deferred cards from reviews or the deck overview.
Enables quickly adding, editing, deleting, and toggling preset tags during review using customizable keyboard shortcuts, with optional burying or suspending of cards or notes afterward.
Reschedules Anki cards using FSRS review histories, postpones or advances selected cards, balances daily workload, schedules breaks, disperses sibling cards, flattens backlogs, and reports memory and learning-step statistics.
Attaches short notes to flagged cards during review, shows them as banners, and provides a viewer with browser integration, professor responses, and CSV/Markdown export.
Lets you postpone a chosen deck, or all decks at once, by a specified number of days via the tools menu.
🃏 Skip cards you don't want to review at the moment — they'll come back at the end of your session!
Sometimes you're in the middle of a review session and come across a card you'd rather not tackle right now — maybe you're not in the right headspace for it, or you just want to save it for last. Skip Cards lets you do exactly that!
When you skip a card, it's temporarily set aside and automatically brought back after all your other cards have been reviewed. No cards are lost, no scheduling is affected — they simply wait their turn. 🕐
Install via the standard Anki add-on method:

Skip Cards is a simple Anki add-on that lets you defer cards during a review session. When you skip a card, it's temporarily set aside and automatically brought back after all your other cards have been reviewed — so nothing gets lost and your scheduling is unaffected. 🎯
1484305783Tools → Add-ons → Open Add-ons Folder).The add-on uses Anki's built-in bury_cards and unbury_cards scheduler methods to temporarily hide skipped cards during the session. Card IDs are tracked in memory and unburied once the queue is empty — no changes are made to Anki's spaced repetition algorithm. 🧠
def skip_card() -> None:
current_card = mw.reviewer.card
if current_card is not None:
mw.col.sched.bury_cards([current_card.id])
skipped_cards_id.append(current_card.id)
mw.reset()
def show_skipped_cards() -> None:
if skipped_cards_id:
mw.col.sched.unbury_cards(skipped_cards_id)
skipped_cards_id.clear()
Want to modify the code? Here's how to set up your development environment.
⚠️ Important: You cannot run add-ons directly from within PyCharm. Add-ons must be run from inside Anki itself.
1. Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/zHenryTM/Skip_Cards.git
2. Open the project in PyCharm and create a new project pointing to the cloned folder.
3. Install Anki's dependencies for type hints and code completion. Open the Python Console in PyCharm (bottom left) and run:
import subprocess
subprocess.check_call(["pip3", "install", "--upgrade", "pip"])
subprocess.check_call(["pip3", "install", "mypy", "aqt[qt6]"])
Wait for the installation to complete. You should now have full code completion for Anki's API. ✅
4. Link the add-on to Anki for testing. Copy the project folder into your Anki add-ons directory:
Tools → Add-ons → Open Add-ons Folder
5. Restart Anki after any changes to see them in effect. 🔁
