Adding a New Tool

1. Create a directory with the tool name:

   Tool Name/
   

2. Add prompt files:

   • Use descriptive names: Prompt.txt, System Prompt.txt, etc.
   • For multiple prompts: Agent Prompt.txt, Chat Prompt.txt
   • Include version if applicable: Prompt v1.2.txt

3. Add tool definitions (if available):

   • Use JSON format: Tools.json, Agent Tools.json
   • Include the full schema

4. Create a README.md in the directory:

   # Tool Name
   
   Brief description of the tool.
   
   ## Contents
   - List of files and what they contain
   
   ## Models Used
   - AI models the tool uses
   
   ## Links
   - Official website
   - Documentation
   

5. Update the main README.md:

   • Add entry under "Available Files"
   • Keep alphabetical order within categories

6. Update metadata (if possible):

   • Edit scripts/generate_metadata.py
   • Add tool information to TOOL_INFO dictionary

File Naming Conventions

• Text files: Use .txt extension
• JSON files: Use .json extension
• Documentation: Use .md extension
• Spaces: Allowed in file names (e.g., Agent Prompt.txt)
• Versioning: Include version in filename if multiple versions exist

Quality Standards

1. Completeness: Include the full system prompt, not excerpts
2. Accuracy: Verify the prompt is current and correctly extracted
3. Attribution: Note the source, date, and version if known
4. Privacy: Remove any API keys, secrets, or personal information

Commit Messages

Use clear, descriptive commit messages:

- Added new system prompt for Claude Code 2.0
- Includes tool definitions
- Updated README with new entry

Follow conventional commits format:

• feat: New tool or feature
• update: Update to existing prompt
• fix: Corrections or bug fixes
• docs: Documentation changes
• refactor: Restructuring without functional changes

🔍 Verification Process

Before submitting:

1. Run validation:

   python scripts/validate.py
   

2. Check links:

   • Ensure all README links work
   • Verify directory names match exactly

3. Test search:

   python scripts/generate_metadata.py
   python scripts/search.py --text "your tool"
   

4. Format check:

   • Ensure files are UTF-8 encoded
   • Remove trailing whitespace
   • Use consistent line endings (LF)

🚫 What NOT to Submit

• Incomplete prompts: Partial or fragmentary prompts
