Where are custom commands stored?

Project-specific commands are stored in .claude/commands/, while global personal commands are stored in ~/.claude/commands/.

Can custom commands execute shell scripts?

Yes, you can include inline bash execution using backticks and an exclamation mark (e.g., !`git status`) to provide Claude with real-time repository context.

What is the purpose of YAML frontmatter in commands?

Frontmatter allows you to define metadata like descriptions for the /help menu, restrict which tools the command can use, and specify which AI model should handle the request.

How do I pass arguments to a custom command?

You can use $ARGUMENTS to capture the entire input string or positional variables like $1, $2, and $3 to capture specific space-separated words from the user's input.

What is a Claude Code slash command?

A slash command is a Markdown file stored in a specific commands directory that Claude executes as a system-level prompt when invoked during an interactive session.

開発者ツール

Streamlines the creation, configuration, and organization of custom slash commands to automate repetitive Claude Code workflows.

概要

This skill provides a comprehensive framework for building powerful, reusable slash commands in Claude Code, allowing developers to standardize complex prompts and automate routine tasks. It offers deep guidance on utilizing YAML frontmatter for configuration, capturing dynamic user input via positional arguments, and enriching AI context through inline bash execution and file references. By following these patterns, users can transform Claude Code into a highly customized development environment tailored to specific project requirements and team standards.
