Not sure this answers this or your other SO question How do I build a Moose class at runtime, add a method to it, apply a role to it and instantiate it once? How would you approach this? at Building a Moose class at runtime and tuning it but have a look at:

• MooseX::SingletonMethod

It may do what you want. Or you may find it useful to peer into our it works.

The documentation does provide links to blog posts I made while coming to grips with building this module so you may find those helpful also.

Here is an brief code example of MooseX::SingletonMethod:

{
    package Foo;
    use MooseX::SingletonMethod;
    sub bar { say 'bar' }
}

my $baz = Foo->new;
my $bar = Foo->new;

$baz->add_singleton_method( baz => sub { say 'baz' } );

$baz->bar;   # => bar
$bar->bar;   # => bar

$baz->baz;   # => baz
$bar->baz;   # Throws can't find baz error
