You are helping the user add a new command to their Obsidian plugin.

1. Ask the user for:

   • Command id (kebab-case)
   • Command display name
   • Whether it needs an editor callback (operates on editor content)
   • Whether it needs a check callback (conditional execution)
   • Hotkey (optional)

2. Read the main.ts file to understand the current plugin structure

3. Add the command using this.addCommand() in the onload() method:

   • For simple commands: use callback
   • For editor commands: use editorCallback with Editor and MarkdownView params
   • For conditional commands: use checkCallback with checking parameter

4. Implement the command logic based on user requirements

Example patterns:

• Simple command: Opens modal, shows notice, triggers action
• Editor command: Reads/modifies selected text or cursor position
• Check command: Only available in certain contexts (e.g., when markdown view is active)

Reference the instruct plugin for complex command examples.
