The instruction itself

4 sections, as written by the author

Embedded commands installer

Install a predefined set of embedded project commands from repository assets into a user-selected target directory. This is an interactive skill.

What is covered in this Skill?

  • Interactive target selection (.github/commands, .claude/commands, .cursor/commands, or .codex/commands)
  • Deterministic copy of all embedded commands defined via XInclude from assets/commands
  • Idempotent re-installation with clear overwrite reporting
  • Support for four command framework destinations

Constraints

This skill installs only the embedded project commands bundle and must ask for destination before writing files.

  • MUST ask the user to choose one of four command destinations before installing
  • MUST copy all embedded command files from skill assets/commands/
  • MUST preserve file names from the reference content and report overwrite actions
  • MUST create the destination directory if it does not exist

When to use this skill

  • Install embedded commands
  • Bootstrap .cursor/command from project assets
  • Bootstrap .claude/commands from embedded commands
  • Copy project commands into .codex/commands
  • Install command suite into .github/commands
