What Seed Data is
Seed Data is a slash command published in the jeremylongshore/tons-of-skills-marketplace repository on GitHub, which has about 2.8k stars. The repository describes itself as: “Model-agnostic agent-skills platform with a harness-free canonical layer, verified adapters, and the ccpi package manager. Explore at tonsofskills.com.”
A slash command is a reusable prompt saved as a markdown file and run by typing its name after a slash. In Claude Code, custom commands have been merged into skills: a file in .claude/commands/ and a skill folder in .claude/skills/ both create the same kind of command, and existing command files keep working.
Seed Data gives you a repeatable way to run the same instructions without retyping them, optionally with arguments.
How to install Seed Data
Claude Code
- Download seed-data.md from the repository.
- Save it to ~/.claude/commands/ (all projects) or .claude/commands/ (one project). As a skill, you can instead save it as ~/.claude/skills/<name>/SKILL.md.
- Run it by typing / followed by its name.
Claude Cowork
- Turn the command into a skill: create a folder with the file saved as SKILL.md and zip it.
- In Customize → Skills, click +, then upload the ZIP.
- Run it from any task with / and the skill name.
New to extending Cowork? Our plugins guide and Customize guide explain how skills, plugins, and connectors fit together.

Generate realistic, consistent test data for database seeding.
Seeding Strategies
- Faker Libraries: Use Faker.js, Faker (Python) for realistic data
- Relational Integrity: Maintain foreign key relationships
- Realistic Distributions: Natural data patterns
- Configurable Volume: Control record counts
- Idempotent Seeds: Safe to run multiple times
Example Seeder (Node.js/TypeORM)
import { faker } from '@faker-js/faker';
export class UserSeeder {
async run() {
const users = [];
for (let i = 0; i < 100; i++) {
users.push({
email: faker.internet.email(),
firstName: faker.person.firstName(),
lastName: faker.person.lastName(),
createdAt: faker.date.past()
});
}
await User.save(users);
}
}When Invoked
Generate seed scripts with realistic data for testing and development.
Before you install
- Read the whole file first. Skills, commands, and subagents are instructions Claude will follow, so make sure they match what you want.
- Check which tools, scripts, or MCP servers it uses. Local servers and scripts run with your permissions.
- Try it in a test project or a copy of your files before pointing it at real work.
- Pin the version you tested, and review changes before updating.
- Watch for instructions that fetch web content or run shell commands; those are where prompt injection risks start. See our prompt injection guide.
