for example I want nav to mob1,then mob2…N
currently I type /nav spawn + paste mob name again and again.
and after I saw someone say "Lua run overseer" in general 1 without that "/",
I think I will make that mistake too in the future :(

for other constant cmd I just make a button but this kind of common used cmd with an variable I don't know how to handle safely.

so, any advice/suggestions plz and thank you.

Take a look here: https://www.redguides.com/community/threads/aliases-in-a-nutshell.84580/

You'd want to create an alias....although frankly /nav spawn isn't a whole lot of characters to type.

I changed my default output to my fellowship, that I am the only member of. Because I knew I would make that same mistake sometime
 
Hot buttons and common/repetitive tasks just make a Lua/Macro to do it.

Set up waypoints, click through those. Use your .cfg files to startup scripts without even thinking.

Might take a look at Alertmaster Lua - it has a list of all mobs you can right click on to nav to.

You can change the default chat channel so you can control where it goes if you do make this mistake. I set my default chat to Fellowship since only my alts are in the fellowship.
