At a glance

Scaffold division name lists, ship hull names, ship class design names, and air wing name blocks for a country.

  • Works in 6 steps: Gather country data → Division names → Ship names → …
  • Asked to create namelists
  • SKILL.md covers 1. Gather country data, 2. Division names, 3. Ship names and 4. Design and air wing names, plus 2 more sections
  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md

What it does

New Namelist is an agent skill from MillenniumDawn/Millennium-Dawn. Scaffold division name lists, ship hull names, ship class design names, and air wing name blocks for a country. Use when asked to create namelists or unit/ship/squadron names for a TAG, e.g. "/new-namelist GHA".

Its SKILL.md is about 740 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

The repository describes itself as: Millennium Dawn and it's codebase. The licence is CC-BY-SA-4.0.

When your agent uses it

  • Asked to create namelists
  • Unit/ship/squadron names for a TAG

Example prompts

  • “/new-namelist GHA”
  • “/new-namelist”

Workflow steps

6 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Gather country data
  2. Division names
  3. Ship names
  4. Design and air wing names
  5. OOB templates
  6. Report

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit eef3a54. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

New Namelist loads about 739 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 56 tokens; SKILL.md has 370 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~56
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~739

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

description
Scaffold division name lists, ship hull names, ship class design names, and air wing name blocks for a country. Use when asked to create namelists or unit/ship/squadron names for a TAG, e.g. "/new-namelist GHA".

Syntax: /new-namelist <TAG>

Read docs/src/content/resources/unit-name-lists.md first. Templates, valid tokens, and the new-tag checklist are in .claude/docs/namelist-reference.md. They are not repeated here.

1. Gather country data

  • history/units/TAG_*.txt: starting templates and ships.
  • history/countries/TAG*.txt: name, region, language.
  • history/states/*.txt: whether the country owns a coastal state.

Decide the language for unit names (French, Spanish, Portuguese, English, or native Latin-script spelling), whether the country is landlocked, and how large its navy is.

If any of the three target files exist, warn before overwriting and offer to append.

2. Division names

Write common/units/names_divisions/TAG_names_divisions.txt with all seven groups. Aim for 6 to 10 ordered entries per group for a major country and 3 to 6 for a small one. Use real formation names where they exist.

3. Ship names

Write common/units/names_ships/TAG_ship_names.txt. Frigate and corvette are the minimum. Add the other types the OOB fields. Aim for 8 to 15 names per group, mixing real ship names with geographic features, battles, national heroes, rivers, and islands. Landlocked nations get no ship file.

4. Design and air wing names

Write or append common/units/names/00_TAG_names.txt:

  • Ship class names for the hull types the country uses. Follow the national tradition: dynasty names for Chinese submarines, islands for Turkish corvettes, Sanskrit weapon names for Indian corvettes, commanders for Korean destroyers, Aegean islands for Greek frigates.
  • The L_Inf_Bat block.
  • air_wing_names_template and a block for every air archetype, even with an empty unique. A missing block does not error. It silently falls back to a numbered generic. Add 8 to 15 real squadron names on the main fighter, strike, and CAS archetypes for a major nation.
  • Each generic_pattern must point at an existing loc key. Without a _CARRIER key, point the cv_ archetypes at AIR_WING_NAME_TAG_GENERIC.
Show full SKILL.md (90 more words)Show less

Landlocked nations take only the L_Inf_Bat and air wing blocks.

5. OOB templates

If the OOB defines templates, add division_names_group = TAG_<GROUP> to each division_template, and to each starting division:

division_name = { is_name_ordered = yes name_order = 1 }

Increment name_order per unit in the same group. It need not match an ordered key. If the OOB is minimal or generic, leave it and say so.

6. Report

Files created or changed, the seven division groups, ship groups and class types covered, air archetypes covered and any missing, whether the OOB was updated, and any name that still needs verifying.
