Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

claude-code-slash-commands scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 1mo ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/create_slash_command.sh), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Claude Code Slash Commands

Guide Claude through creating and configuring custom slash commands for Claude Code.

Purpose

Slash commands let users define frequently-used prompts as Markdown files that Claude can execute on demand. This skill helps create well-structured slash commands with proper frontmatter, arguments, bash execution, and other advanced features.

When to Use This Skill

Use this skill when:

  • Creating new custom slash commands (project or personal)
  • Adding arguments, bash execution, or file references to commands
  • Configuring frontmatter options (allowed-tools, model, argument-hint, etc.)
  • Troubleshooting slash command issues

Command Types

Project Commands

  • Stored at: .claude/commands/
  • Shared with the team (versioned in git)
  • Shown as (project) in /help

Personal Commands

  • Stored at: ~/.claude/commands/
  • Available across all projects
  • Shown as (user) in /help

Plugin Commands

  • Stored at: commands/ in plugin root
  • Distributed via plugin marketplaces
  • Shown as (plugin:plugin-name) in /help
  • Invoked with /plugin-name:command-name or just /command-name
  • Support all features (arguments, frontmatter, bash, file references)

Creating Slash Commands

Quick Creation with Helper Script

Use the bundled creation script for fast, templated command setup:

# Create project command with basic template
scripts/create_slash_command.sh my-command --project

# Create personal command with advanced template
scripts/create_slash_command.sh my-command --user --template advanced

# Create plugin command (auto-detects plugin from current directory)
scripts/create_slash_command.sh my-command --plugin

# Create plugin command for specific plugin
scripts/create_slash_command.sh my-command --plugin my-plugin-name

# Available templates: basic, arguments, bash, advanced

The script is located at: scripts/create_slash_command.sh

Plugin command creation:

  • Use --plugin to create commands in a plugin's commands/ directory
  • Auto-detects plugin when run from within a plugin directory
  • Or specify plugin name: --plugin my-plugin-name
  • Reminds you to register the command in marketplace.json

What ships with it

6 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
