Slash Command Creator FAQs

Question 1

When should I use custom slash commands?

Accepted Answer

You should use custom slash commands whenever you have a prompt or workflow you use frequently, such as performing specific types of code reviews, generating PR descriptions, running test suites, or enforcing project-specific coding standards.

Question 2

Can I execute shell commands within a slash command?

Accepted Answer

Yes. By using the '!' prefix and defining 'allowed-tools' in the file's frontmatter, you can execute bash commands (like 'git diff' or 'npm test') and automatically include their output directly into your prompt context.

Question 3

What is the Slash Command Creator skill?

Accepted Answer

The Slash Command Creator is a framework for building reusable, custom commands in Claude Code. It allows you to trigger complex, structured prompts and scripts using a simple '/command-name' syntax, streamlining repetitive development tasks.

Question 4

What is the difference between project and personal commands?

Accepted Answer

Project commands are stored in '.claude/commands/' and are shared with your team via Git for project-specific workflows. Personal commands reside in your home directory and are available globally across every project you work on.

Question 5

How does argument handling work in this skill?

Accepted Answer

The skill supports advanced argument handling using $ARGUMENTS to capture all input, or positional variables like $1, $2, and $3. This allows you to pass specific data—like issue numbers, filenames, or priorities—directly into your custom prompts.
