What is a Claude Code slash command?

A slash command is a user-triggered, custom workflow within Claude Code that executes specific instructions, often involving tools like bash, read, or edit.

Can I restrict which tools a custom command can use?

Yes, this skill helps you define 'allowed-tools' in the command's frontmatter to control its capabilities and improve safety.

Where are these custom commands stored?

Commands are stored in .claude/commands/ for project-specific use or ~/.claude/commands/ for global availability across all projects.

How does this skill help with command creation?

It automates the generation of markdown command files, configures argument hints, and ensures proper YAML frontmatter for discoverability.

When should I use a command instead of a skill?

Use a command for user-initiated, specific workflows. Use a skill for capabilities that should be automatically available to Claude during its reasoning process.
