You should be adding it inside of the core configuration manager instead of interacting with the flat files directly. The flat files get overwritten every time a configuration is applied.

You should be able to create a file with the new command in the import dir, and run the reconfig script, or click reconfig in CCM and Nagios will import it...

To expand on what @gormank is saying, we have a document detailing this here. Probably a little more information than you need in that document, but still nice to be aware of.
