The prompt

I keep explaining the same workflow to my coding agent. Turn it into a reusable skill or instruction file the agent can load when needed. Workflow: [e.g. how we add a new API endpoint / release checklist / how to write a migration / our code review rules] Steps as I do them now: [paste rough notes] Commands and scripts used: [list] Common mistakes the agent makes: [list] Write the file with: 1. A name and a one-line description that says exactly when to use it (and when not to). 2. Prerequisites: what to read or check first. 3. Numbered steps, each with the exact command or file to touch, and how to confirm the step worked. 4. Rules and gotchas, including the mistakes I listed, written as clear do / don't lines. 5. A done checklist. Keep it under [80] lines, use plain language, and don't invent commands or file paths: mark anything you're unsure of as [VERIFY].
