Saved skills & slash commands

The gap between a power user and a true operator is the library. Every procedure you run repeatedly should become a verb you can invoke by name. That's the unit of compounding leverage — and it's why the most effective people accumulate dozens of custom commands.

A good skill follows a simple shape: load the relevant state, verify it, then act. Make it idempotent so it's safe to re-run.

Try it now

Pick a sequence you run often and ship it as a named command:

I do this same sequence often: [describe the steps]. Turn it into a reusable slash command I can invoke by name. Follow the load-state → verify → act shape, and make it idempotent so it's safe to re-run.

You've got it when…

You invoked a working custom command by name and it ran the whole procedure end to end. Each one you build makes the next workflow cheaper.
