Reference

Every command

The whole slash-command surface, filterable, generated from the shipping binary.

Type / in a session for the palette: arrow keys select, Enter runs, Tab adds arguments, Esc closes. /help opens the same reference without leaving your session, and /help <topic> narrows it.

This list is generated from the ContextCode source, so it is what the binary actually ships.

Commands that appear at runtime

Three kinds show up in the palette that aren't in the list above:

  • /skill:<name> — one per skill, from your project and your workspace.
  • /mcp:<server> — one per connected tool server.
  • Your own — any markdown file in .contextcode/commands/.

See Skills and custom commands and Connecting other tools.

You rarely need them

Most commands have a plain-English equivalent that works just as well: "undo that", "run the build in the background", "what did we decide about retries". The commands are for when you know exactly what you want and would rather type six characters.
