Automated summary

This meta-command generates a new MBMM slash command file at `.claude/commands/mbmm_<name>.md` from a user-supplied name and desired behavior.

Strengths

  • Writes the YAML frontmatter automatically, including `description` and `argument-hint` where applicable.
  • Turns an informal behavior description into a structured, reusable prompt instruction.
  • Enforces a consistent naming convention (`mbmm_<skill_name>.md`) across generated commands.
  • Confirms file creation, making the result immediately verifiable.

Limitations

  • Only produces Claude Code command files under `.claude/commands/`, with no equivalent for other tools.
  • The generated prompt is neither validated nor tested: quality depends entirely on the behavior description given.
  • The `mbmm_` prefix is fixed and cannot be overridden through the arguments.
When to use it

Use it when you want to quickly scaffold a reusable custom slash command from a short description of the desired behavior.

When not to use it

Avoid it if you need a command for a tool other than Claude Code, or if you want to test and validate the prompt before saving it.

Safe
Quality score78/100

Examples

Commit message command
/mbmm_commit_message Generate a conventional commit message from the staged diff and show it before committing
PR review command
/mbmm_review_pr Review the current pull request diff, flag security issues first, then style problems
Test plan command
/mbmm_test_plan Draft a test plan for a feature described in $ARGUMENTS, listing edge cases and expected results

argument-hint: [skill_name] [desired_behavior] description: Meta-command to generate a new MBMM custom slash command.

Based on the user's request: $ARGUMENTS Create a new file named .claude/commands/mbmm_<skill_name>.md. Automatically write the YAML frontmatter (including description and argument-hint if applicable) and translate the desired behavior into a robust prompt instruction. Save the file and confirm the new command is ready to use.

From the file to a first result

The download contains exactly the content displayed on this page. This copy may differ from the latest version in the source repository.

View the source and supporting files

This download contains SKILL.md only. Any scripts, references, templates and dependencies are not included. Get the required files from the source, preserving their directory structure, before continuing.

1. Download the file

Download SKILL.md

From the root of a test project, save the file as .skill-downloads/generate-a-custom-slash-command-mtmi9ai9/SKILL.md, or use the command below. This folder is for inspecting the skill before installation.

Command for macOS/Linux or WSL: requires a POSIX shell and curl. On Windows without WSL, use the download button and create the folder manually.

mkdir -p '.skill-downloads/generate-a-custom-slash-command-mtmi9ai9' && curl --fail --show-error --location 'https://skills-guides.com/api/skills/generate-a-custom-slash-command-mtmi9ai9/download' --output '.skill-downloads/generate-a-custom-slash-command-mtmi9ai9/SKILL.md.part' && mv '.skill-downloads/generate-a-custom-slash-command-mtmi9ai9/SKILL.md.part' '.skill-downloads/generate-a-custom-slash-command-mtmi9ai9/SKILL.md'

2. Check prerequisites

Read SKILL.md before using it. If it references scripts or external services, inspect them and prepare the required access in your test environment.

No recognized prerequisites section in this file. This does not mean it is self-contained: libraries, tools and access requirements may be mentioned elsewhere in the content or source repository.

The platforms on this page are catalog indications. The paths below follow tool documentation; they do not prove this skill has been run in those tools. No minimum tool version is confirmed for this listing.

3. Load the skill

This file does not provide a usable name/description header for this native procedure. It remains available to download and inspect; use the manual method below.

Manual method or another tool: attach SKILL.md to a conversation, or open it in an agent that can read files. Include any required supporting resources. No universal folder is recognized by every tool.

4. Try a first task

Use a short, synthetic input: an API endpoint, a small document or an interface brief. In a new conversation, attach the file or give the agent its path, then adapt this request:

Read .skill-downloads/generate-a-custom-slash-command-mtmi9ai9/SKILL.md and apply its instructions to this example: [describe a test input]. Identify any missing files, dependencies or access. Produce the result requested by the skill without inventing data or running unreviewed scripts.

Expected result: output matching the skill instructions, or a precise list of missing prerequisites. A read confirmation alone does not validate a first use. If an external resource is unavailable, that path remains untested.
