What it does
This prompt instructs the AI to act as a professional chef and nutritionist to produce a customized recipe for a specified dish and serving size, tailored to the user’s flavor preferences, dietary restrictions, required main ingredients, excluded ingredients (with alternatives), available cooking equipment, and preferred cuisine/presentation style. The result is a structured, step-by-step recipe including an introduction, precise ingredient measurements, timed preparation instructions, plating guidance, and a notes section with substitutions, side-dish pairings, flavor-boosting tips, estimated calories per serving with lighter-adjustment options, and a summary of nutritional benefits aligned to the stated needs.

Models and options
This skill's modality is: text.
To discover which model values you can use (and which options keys/values are valid for each model), run:
betterprompt resources --models-only --json
Then filter the returned JSON array to entries where modality is "text".
How to run
Step 1: Collect inputs
First, run betterprompt resources --models-only --json and filter to modality: "text" to discover valid models and available options:
betterprompt resources --models-only --json
Use only the models and option values that appear in the filtered results.
Then collect all inputs from the human:
- Required text inputs:
Dish_namePersonal_tastePreferred_styleMain_ingredientsCooking_equipmentnumber_of_servingsHealth_restrictionsIngredients_to_avoid
- Optional: model and options.
- Present the human with the default model
gpt-4oand its available options. Look upgpt-4oin thebetterprompt resourcesoutput (filtered to modality"text") and show itsavailableOptionsas:key: val1, val2 (default), val3 | key2: .... Mark a value(default)if it matches these defaults:{}. - If the human does not specify, defaults are used: model
gpt-4o, options{}. Other models from the resources call are also available.
- Present the human with the default model
If any required text input is missing, ask the human for what's missing. Do not assume or fabricate values.
Step 2: Run via BetterPrompt CLI
Use the frontmatter's name as the positional argument (for this skill, use cook-based-on-your-personal-preferences).
Command form:
betterprompt generate cook-based-on-your-personal-preferences \
[--input <key>=<value>] \
[--model <model>] \
[--options <options JSON>] \
[--json]
Notes:
- Pass each text input as a separate
--input <key>=<value>flag. - If the human does not mention a model, omit
--modeland BetterPrompt will use the default model:gpt-4o. - If the human does not mention options, omit
--optionsand BetterPrompt will use the default options:{}. - If the run times out, the response will include a
runIdyou can use to fetch the result later.
Example (using defaults shown above):
betterprompt generate cook-based-on-your-personal-preferences \
--input Dish_name=<value> \
--input Personal_taste=<value> \
--input Preferred_style=<value> \
--input Main_ingredients=<value> \
--input Cooking_equipment=<value> \
