Create Prompt
Generate a new prompt at specified level.
Arguments
$1: Level (1-7)
$ARGUMENTS: High-level description of prompt purpose (after level)
Instructions
You are creating a new agentic prompt at the specified level.
Step 1: Parse Arguments
Extract:
- Level from
$1 (1-7, default to 2 if not specified)
- Description from remaining arguments
If no description provided, STOP and ask user for prompt purpose.
Step 2: Determine Level Requirements
Based on level, identify required sections:
| Level |
Required Sections |
| 1 |
Title, High-Level Prompt |
| 2 |
Title, Variables, Workflow, Report |
| 3 |
Title, Variables, Workflow (with control flow) |
| 4 |
Title, Variables, Workflow (with delegation) |
| 5 |
Title, Variables, Workflow (accepts prompt input) |
| 6 |
Title, Variables, Workflow, Specified Format |
| 7 |
Title, Variables, Workflow, Expertise |
Step 3: Design Variables
Determine:
- Dynamic variables (what user provides)
- Static variables (fixed values)
- Default values where appropriate
Step 4: Design Workflow
Create numbered steps appropriate for the level:
- Level 1: Simple sequential instructions
- Level 2: Input -> Process -> Output pattern
- Level 3: Add conditionals, loops, STOP conditions
- Level 4: Add Task tool delegation
- Level 5: Accept prompt file as input
- Level 6: Include template generation
- Level 7: Include expertise accumulation
Step 5: Generate Prompt
Create the prompt following the level structure.
Step 6: Save and Report
Output
Generate the prompt and provide summary:
## Prompt Created
**Name:** [kebab-case-name]
**Level:** [level]
**Location:** .claude/commands/[name].md
### Structure
- Sections: [list]
- Variables: [count] dynamic, [count] static
- Workflow: [count] steps
### Usage
```bash
/[name] [arguments]
Next Steps
- Test the prompt
- Refine based on results
- Consider upgrading if needed
Notes
- See @seven-levels.md for level definitions
- See @prompt-sections-reference.md for section guidelines
- See @variable-patterns.md for variable conventions
- Use @prompt-level-selection skill if unsure about level
