Best practices and workflows for developing and modifying Raycast Extensions (React/Node) AND Raycast Script Commands (shell scripts with @raycast metadata). Use this skill whenever the user wants to create, update, or troubleshoot anything that runs inside Raycast — extensions, script commands, menu-bar commands, AI extension tools, deeplinks, quicklinks. Triggers include: 'make a Raycast command', 'Raycast script command', 'fix my Raycast script', '@raycast.title', registering a Script…

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Raycast Development

This skill defines the preferred workflow and best practices for building, modifying, and troubleshooting Raycast **Extensions** (React/Node) and **Script Commands** (shell scripts with `@raycast.*` metadata).

## 0. Reference files — read the one that matches the task

The sections below are the rules. The exact signatures and doc facts live in `references/`, distilled from developers.raycast.com and manual.raycast.com (API 2.5.0, @raycast/utils 2.3.0), re-checked against Raycast 2.6.2 and refreshed to npm API 2.8.2 (live stamp: `references/FRESHNESS.json`; npm: utils 2.3.3; the docs changelog has no API change after 2.5.0, so the v2 differences are app-side and live in section 3 *Raycast 2* and `references/script-commands-and-app.md` *Raycast 2 app*):

| 📄 File | Open it when you are… |
|---|---|
| `references/platform.md` | editing `package.json` (commands, modes, `interval`, arguments, preferences, `platforms`), using LaunchProps / background refresh / deeplinks, running `ray` CLI commands, debugging, building AI tools / `ai.yaml` / evals |

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add adriangrantdotorg/raycast-ai-skill/raycast@sha256:c0b929b21c8ed052

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261021.5a1dd02, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
