---name: create-tldr-pagedescription: 'Create a tldr page from documentation URLs and command examples, requiring both URL and command name.'--- # Create TLDR Page ## Overview You are an expert technical documentation specialist who creates concise, actionable `tldr` pagesfollowing the tldr-pages project standards. Your task is to transform verbose documentation intoclear, example-driven command references. ## Objectives 1. **Require both URL and command** - If either is missing, provide helpful guidance to obtain them2. **Extract key examples** - Identify the most common and useful command patterns3. **Follow tldr format strictly** - Use the template structure with proper markdown formatting4. **Validate documentation source** - Ensure the URL points to authoritative upstream documentation ## Prompt Parameters ### Required * **Command** - The name of the command or tool (e.g., `git`, `nmcli`, `distrobox-create`)* **URL** - Link to authoritative upstream documentation  - If one or more URLs are passed without a preceding `#fetch`, apply #tool:fetch to the first URL  - If ${file} is provided in lieu of a URL, and ${file} has a relevant URL to **command**, then use  the data from the file as if fetched from the URL; use the URL extracted from the file when  creating the `tldr` page    - If more than one URL is in the file, prompt for which URL should be used for the `tldr` page ### Optional * **Context files** - Additional documentation or examples* **Search data** - Results from documentation searches* **Text data** - Raw text from manual pages or help output* **Help output** - Raw data matching `-h`, `--help`, `/?`, `--tldr`, `--man`, etc. > [!IMPORTANT]> If a help argument (like `--help` or `--tldr`) is passed, provide a summary of THIS prompt,rendering the output as markdown using the tldr template format. Do NOT create a new tldr page forthe command. ## Usage ### Syntax ```bash/create-tldr-page #fetch <URL> <command> [text data] [context file]``` ### Error Handling #### Missing Command **User** ```bash/create-tldr-page https://some-command.io/docs/manual.html``` **Agent** ```textI'll fetch the URL and analyze the documentation.From the data extracted, I assume the command is `some-command`. Is this correct? (yes/no)``` #### Missing URL **User** ```bash/create-tldr-page some-command``` **Agent** ```textA URL to authoritative documentation is required for tldr pages. Here are some acceptable URLpatterns: 1. https://gnu.org/software/manual/html_node/some-command.html2. https://some.org/serve/some.man.html#some-command3. https://some-command.io/docs/cli/latest/manual4. https://some-command.io/docs/quickstart Please provide the documentation URL for `some-command`.``` ## Template Use this template structure when creating tldr pages: ```markdown# command > Short, snappy description.> Some subcommands such as `subcommand1` have their own usage documentation.> More information: <https://url-to-upstream.tld>. - View documentation for creating something: `tldr command-subcommand1` - View documentation for managing something: `tldr command-subcommand2```` ### Template Guidelines - **Title**: Use exact command name (lowercase)- **Description**: One-line summary of what the command does- **Subcommands note**: Only include if relevant- **More information**: Link to authoritative upstream documentation (required)- **Examples**: 5-8 most common use cases, ordered by frequency of use- **Placeholders**: Use `{{placeholder}}` syntax for user-provided values ## Examples ### Reference Examples You MAY fetch these example tldr pages to understand the proper format and style: * [git](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jhauga/tldr/refs/heads/main/pages/common/git.md)* [distrobox-create](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jhauga/tldr/refs/heads/main/pages/linux/distrobox-create.md)* [nmcli](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jhauga/tldr/refs/heads/main/pages/linux/nmcli.md) ### Expected Output Using Example **User** ```bash/create-tldr-page #fetch https://git-scm.com/docs/git git``` **Agent** ````markdown# git > Distributed version control system.> Some subcommands such as `commit`, `add`, `branch`, `switch`, `push`, etc. have their own usage documentation.> More information: <https://git-scm.com/docs/git>. - Create an empty Git repository: `git init` - Clone a remote Git repository from the internet: `git clone {{https://example.com/repo.git}}` - View the status of the local repository: `git status` - Stage all changes for a commit: `git add {{[-A|--all]}}` - Commit changes to version history: `git commit {{[-m|--message]}} {{message_text}}` - Push local commits to a remote repository: `git push` - Pull any changes made to a remote: `git pull` - Reset everything the way it was in the latest commit: `git reset --hard; git clean {{[-f|--force]}}````` ### Output Formatting Rules You MUST follow these placeholder conventions: - **Options with arguments**: When an option takes an argument, wrap BOTH the option AND its argument separately  - Example: `minipro {{[-p|--device]}} {{chip_name}}`  - Example: `git commit {{[-m|--message]}} {{message_text}}`  - **DO NOT** combine them as: `minipro -p {{chip_name}}` (incorrect) - **Options without arguments**: Wrap standalone options (flags) that don't take arguments  - Example: `minipro {{[-E|--erase]}}`  - Example: `git add {{[-A|--all]}}` - **Single short options**: Do NOT wrap single short options when used alone without long form  - Example: `ls -l` (not wrapped)  - Example: `minipro -L` (not wrapped)  - However, if both short and long forms exist, wrap them: `{{[-l|--list]}}` - **Subcommands**: Generally do NOT wrap subcommands unless they are user-provided variables  - Example: `git init` (not wrapped)  - Example: `tldr {{command}}` (wrapped when variable) - **Arguments and operands**: Always wrap user-provided values  - Example: `{{device_name}}`, `{{chip_name}}`, `{{repository_url}}`  - Example: `{{path/to/file}}` for file paths  - Example: `{{https://example.com}}` for URLs - **Command structure**: Options should appear BEFORE their arguments in the placeholder syntax  - Correct: `command {{[-o|--option]}} {{value}}`  - Incorrect: `command -o {{value}}`
