Creates browser-executable JavaScript bookmarklets with strict formatting requirements. Use when users mention bookmarklets, browser utilities, dragging code to bookmarks bar, or need JavaScript that runs when clicked in the browser toolbar.

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

# Bookmarklet Creation

## Critical Requirements

### Comment Style - ABSOLUTE
**Use ONLY `/* */` comments. NEVER use `//` comments.**

Bookmark execution contexts fail with `//` style. Every comment must use block format.

```javascript
/* ✓ Correct */
const x = 5; /* inline */

/* ✗ Wrong - breaks bookmarklets */
// const x = 5;
const y = 10; // inline
```

### IIFE Wrapper
All bookmarklets must wrap in IIFE:

```javascript
(function() {
  /* bookmarklet code */
})();
```

### Protocol Prefix
All delivered bookmarklets must begin with `javascript:` protocol:

```javascript
javascript:(function() {
  /* bookmarklet code */
})();
```

This makes the code immediately usable without requiring manual modification during installation.

## Workflow

### 1. Generate Pretty-Printed Code

Create readable source with:
- 2-space indentation
- Descriptive variable names
- Block comments for key sections
- Logical organization
- **Prepend `javascript:` protocol to the code**

**This version with `javascript:` prefix gets stored in GitHub and shown to users, making it ready for installation without manual modification.**

### 2. Provide Installation

**Default approach - reference installer:**
…

Read the whole file at its exact version.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add oaustegard/claude-skills/creating-bookmarklets@sha256:9a23b60111613434

The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.3, 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.
