docs(command-development): clarify model field accepts full model strings

[sjnims]

Summary

Clarifies that the model frontmatter field in slash commands accepts both shorthand values and full model IDs.

Problem

Fixes #49

The command-development skill documentation only showed shorthand model values (sonnet, opus, haiku), but official Claude docs show full model IDs are also valid. This caused potential confusion about accepted formats.

Solution

Updated documentation to explicitly show both formats:

• Shorthand: sonnet, opus, haiku
• Full model ID: claude-sonnet-4-5-20250929, claude-haiku-4-5-20251001, etc.

Added clarification that shorthand names use the current default version of each model family.

Alternatives Considered

• Only update the reference file: Decided to update both SKILL.md and frontmatter-reference.md for consistency
• Use older model IDs from the issue: Updated to use current 4.5 model IDs (as of December 2025)

Changes

• skills/command-development/references/frontmatter-reference.md: Updated model field values and validation fix text
• skills/command-development/SKILL.md: Updated model field type and values

Testing

• Linting passes (markdownlint)
• Documentation is accurate per official Claude docs

PR Review: Clarify Model Field Documentation

Reviewing PR #57: docs(command-development): clarify model field accepts full model strings

Summary

✅ Looks good - This PR effectively addresses issue #49 by clarifying that the model frontmatter field accepts both shorthand and full model ID formats.

---

What's Good

1. Accurate and Comprehensive: Both files (SKILL.md and frontmatter-reference.md) are consistently updated with the same information, maintaining documentation coherence.

2. Clear Format Examples: The PR provides concrete examples:

   • Shorthand: sonnet, opus, haiku
   • Full model IDs: claude-sonnet-4-5-20250929, claude-haiku-4-5-20251001

3. Important Clarification Added: The note "Shorthand names use the current default version of each model family" helps users understand the relationship between shorthand and full IDs.

4. Validation Fix Updated: The error message in the validation section was appropriately updated to show both accepted formats (line 448 in frontmatter-reference.md).

5. Clean Changes: Minimal, focused diff that addresses exactly what was needed without scope creep.

6. Markdown Linting: All markdown files pass markdownlint validation with no errors.

---

Suggestions

No significant issues found. The documentation changes are accurate, well-structured, and follow the existing documentation patterns.

Minor consideration (optional, not required):

• The examples use specific model IDs like claude-sonnet-4-5-20250929. While these are current as of December 2025, consider that model IDs may evolve. The examples are fine as-is since they demonstrate the format, and the text "etc." appropriately indicates these are examples rather than an exhaustive list.

Checklist Verification

• Plugin component structure: Skill documentation follows proper format with frontmatter
• Markdown quality: No linting errors detected
• Consistency: Both SKILL.md and frontmatter-reference.md updated consistently
• Accuracy: Information aligns with official Claude documentation
• User-facing impact: Changes improve clarity without breaking existing usage

---

Recommendation: ✅ Approve and merge

This PR successfully resolves issue #49 by documenting both accepted formats for the model field, improving the developer experience for command creation.

Addressed the review suggestion about model ID currency:

Added a blockquote note to frontmatter-reference.md that:

1. States the examples reflect December 2025 releases
2. Notes that Anthropic releases new model versions periodically
3. Points to official docs URL for current model IDs

This makes the documentation evergreen - when Claude loads this skill, it can reference the official docs for the most up-to-date model names rather than relying on potentially stale examples.

> **Note:** Model ID examples above reflect December 2025 releases. Anthropic releases new model versions periodically. For current model IDs, consult [Claude Models Overview](https://docs.anthropic.com/en/docs/about-claude/models).
