Per-card sibling setting?

There are a few years I created in my fork of Anki a “sibling” (more like cousin) card burying feature. Last week, I published it as an addon so I can eventually share some of my anki decks that use this burying feature. I think this will really help you: Source Siblings Bury Cousins addon (support thread)

Basically, you need to install the add-on, create a field called Sibling for each note (cards), and put a key like anatomy card on it. Then, in every anki note you do not want to see in the same week, add the field Sibling with the content anatomy card. This will create a buried group anatomy card where every note with the anatomy card keyword will not show on the same week. You can create other groups as human bone cards, and every note on this “group” will not show up in the same week.

This is a manual process as it requires you to run the command Tools -> Bury all siblings cards before starting studying, but after that, you can sync with Anki Web and study on other devices such as AnkiDroid. This bury technique, works for every note with the field Sibling; they do not need to be from the same note type.
