I feel like this function needs to be more generic, that is - have a separate function for insertion of custom YAML frontmatter into prompt files, and then invoke it with the argument of invokable and a value of true.

I've refactored the code to extract the YAML frontmatter insertion logic into a separate, more generic function called insert_yaml_frontmatter. This function can now be reused for other field insertions in the future.

The new function takes four parameters:

  • body: The content to process
  • name: The name to use for the speckit.{name} entry
  • field_name: The field name to insert (e.g., "invokable")
  • field_value: The value for that field (e.g., "true")

This approach makes the code more maintainable and follows the DRY principle. When the agent is "continue" and a description is present, it still inserts the name: speckit.{name} and invokable: true fields into the YAML frontmatter of the prompt files, but now does so by calling the generic function with the appropriate parameters.

This also makes it easier to add other custom fields in the future without duplicating the AWK logic.

# Find description in body and write invokable: true in next line
if [[ -n "$description" ]]; then
# Insert name and invokable fields after the first --- delimiter
body=$(insert_yaml_frontmatter "$body" "$name" "invokable" "true")
fi
