Can I use shell commands inside my custom Claude commands?

Yes, you can use bash execution by prefixing backticks with an exclamation mark to include real-time terminal output in your command's context.

Where should I store my custom command files?

Project-specific commands go in .claude/commands/, while personal commands for all your projects should be stored in ~/.claude/commands/.

What is the difference between a Claude Command and a Skill?

Commands are user-initiated via a slash (e.g., /review), whereas Skills are automatically triggered by the model based on the conversation context.

How do I pass arguments to a custom slash command?

You can use $1, $2, or $ARGUMENTS within your command file to capture inputs provided by the user when they invoke the command.

Is it possible to limit what tools Claude can use during a command?

Yes, the allowed-tools field in the command's YAML frontmatter allows you to strictly define which capabilities, like Bash, Read, or Write, Claude can access.

Enables the creation of custom slash commands to automate repetitive workflows and reusable prompts within Claude Code.

소개

The Claude Command Authoring skill provides a comprehensive framework for extending Claude Code's functionality through user-initiated slash commands. It guides developers through the entire lifecycle of command creation—from discovery and design to implementation and validation. By utilizing frontmatter configurations, dynamic arguments, and integrated bash execution, users can build powerful shortcuts for code reviews, git operations, and environment deployments, effectively tailoring the AI's behavior to their specific project requirements.
