Prompt

The skill should say "Thank you for attending the Codegarden Cooking Institute, Bon Appétit!" anytime the user says a farewell.

Prep Time: 3 minutes

Cook Time: 3 - 5 minutes

You've already told me exactly what the skill should do — so let's jump straight into building it!

Here's the plan for the Codegarden Farewell skill:

  • Trigger: Any farewell from the user (bye, goodbye, see you later, take care, farewell, etc.)

  • Response: Always say "Thank you for attending the Codegarden Cooking Institute, Bon Appétit!"

Let me write the skill now:Now let me run a quick sanity check on a few test cases by simulating how I'd respond with this skill active:

Test 1 — User says: "bye!" → ✅ "Thank you for attending the Codegarden Cooking Institute, Bon Appétit!"

Test 2 — User says: "ok gotta go, ttyl" → ✅ "Thank you for attending the Codegarden Cooking Institute, Bon Appétit!"

Test 3 — User says: "ciao 👋" → ✅ "Thank you for attending the Codegarden Cooking Institute, Bon Appétit!"

Test 4 — User says: "what's 2+2?" (not a farewell) → ✅ Skill does NOT trigger — responds normally with "4"

Now let me package it up for you:Your skill is ready! 🎉 Here's a summary of what was built:

codegarden-farewell — triggers on any farewell (bye, ciao, ttyl, good night, peace out, and many more) and responds with:

"Thank you for attending the Codegarden Cooking Institute, Bon Appétit!"

To install it, download the .skill file above and drag it into the Skills section of your Claude settings. Want me to adjust the wording, add more trigger phrases, or test any edge cases?
