Overview

Slash commands are frequently-used prompts defined as Markdown files that Claude executes during interactive sessions. Understanding command structure, frontmatter options, and dynamic features enables creating powerful, reusable workflows.

Key concepts:

  • Markdown file format for commands
  • YAML frontmatter for configuration
  • Dynamic arguments and file references
  • Bash execution for context
  • Command organization and namespacing
