Generate FilamentPHP Action

Create FilamentPHP v4 actions for tables, pages, or modals with forms and confirmations.

Usage

# Simple action
/filament-specialist:action "publish post"

# Action with modal form
/filament-specialist:action "send email to user with subject and message" --modal

# Bulk action
/filament-specialist:action "export selected records to CSV" --type bulk

# Page header action
/filament-specialist:action "import data from CSV file" --type header --modal

# Action with confirmation
/filament-specialist:action "archive old records" --confirmation

Process

1. Consult Documentation

Before generating, read the actions documentation:

• Read /home/mwguerra/projects/mwguerra/claude-code-plugins/filament-specialist/skills/docs/references/actions/

2. Analyze Requirements

Parse the description to identify:

• Action purpose
• Required inputs (modal form)
• Confirmation needed
• Target (single record, multiple records, page-level)
• Result (notification, redirect, download)

3. Determine Action Type

Type	Use Case
Row Action	Act on single table record
Bulk Action	Act on multiple selected records
Header Action	Table-level action (create, import)
Page Action	Page header action
Modal Action	Standalone action with form

4. Generate Action

Create action with:

• Proper icon and color
• Form schema if needed
• Confirmation dialog if needed
• Action logic
• Notification/feedback

Output

Complete action code with:

• All necessary imports
• Icon and styling
• Form schema (if modal)
• Confirmation (if needed)
• Action handler
• Notifications
