What I do

I help you create new scratch files in the .agents/scratches/ directory. Each scratch file gets:

• A unique three-word identifier (e.g., calm-teal-cloud )

• Frontmatter with the current date and formatted title

• Content you provide

How to use

Run the script with a slug and content:

npx tsx scripts/create-scratch.ts "note-name" "Scratch content here"

Or use heredoc for multi-line content:

npx tsx scripts/create-scratch.ts "note-name" << HEREDOC Multi-line scratch content goes here HEREDOC

File format

Files are created as: {three-word-id}-{slug}.md

Example: calm-teal-cloud-note-name.md

The file includes frontmatter:

date: 2026-01-13 title: Note Name

Your content here

When to use me

Use this skill when you need to create a temporary note, exploration document, or scratch pad for ideas. The unique ID ensures no filename conflicts, and the frontmatter provides metadata for organization.
