Slash Commands

Slash commands are quick shortcuts you can type into the PostQode chat input to trigger specific built-in tools, manage context, create automation guidelines, or interact with the platform.

To use a slash command, simply type a forward slash (/) in the chat input, followed by the command name (e.g. /newtask).
