Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5 | $0.00099 | $0.04346 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00049 | $0.02173 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00020 | $0.00869 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00010 | $0.00435 |
Grade A, and why
command-development 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 4d ago.
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.
This is a copy
91% identical to command-development — 81 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

Command Development for Claude Code
Overview
Slash commands are frequently-used prompts defined as Markdown files that Claude executes during interactive sessions. Understanding command structure, frontmatter options, and dynamic features enables creating powerful, reusable workflows.
Key concepts:
- Markdown file format for commands
- YAML frontmatter for configuration
- Dynamic arguments and file references
- Bash execution for context
- Command organization and namespacing
Command Basics
What is a Slash Command?
A slash command is a Markdown file containing a prompt that Claude executes when invoked. Commands provide:
- Reusability: Define once, use repeatedly
- Consistency: Standardize common workflows
- Sharing: Distribute across team or projects
- Efficiency: Quick access to complex prompts
Critical: Commands are Instructions FOR Claude
Commands are written for agent consumption, not human consumption.
When a user invokes /command-name, the command content becomes Claude's instructions. Write commands as directives TO Claude about what to do, not as messages TO the user.
Correct approach (instructions for Claude):
Review this code for security vulnerabilities including:
- SQL injection
- XSS attacks
- Authentication issues
Provide specific line numbers and severity ratings.
Incorrect approach (messages to user):
This command will review your code for security issues.
You'll receive a report with vulnerability details.
The first example tells Claude what to do. The second tells the user what will happen but doesn't instruct Claude. Always use the first approach.

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.

command-development is a skill published in the GitHub repository mahmoud20138/Tradecraft (14 stars, last pushed 4mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 99 tokens to every session and 4,346 once invoked, about $0.0005 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. It is 91% identical to command-development, differing in 81 lines, and is treated as a copy.

ralph-loop-template
Generate an iterable checklist PROMPT file for Ralph Loop from a plan file or the current conversation, and output the ready-to-run /ralph-loop command.
code-history
Trace the git history of specific code — when a function, pattern, or file was added, modified, or removed, and the intent behind each change. Use when the user asks when or why a piece of code changed, wants the evolution of a function, or needs the commit or PR that introduced a behavior. Read-only; not for plain…
code-review-report
Turn code changes into a single-file HTML code review report that pairs the diff with context a diff can't show — design decisions, rejected alternatives, tradeoffs, unfinished work — plus prioritized review points. Use when preparing for review after finishing a sizable change, refactor, or feature, or whenever the…
commit-split
Split a pile of uncommitted changes into several context-scoped commits. Analyzes the diff first, proposes logical groups and a commit count, and once the user confirms the granularity, stages per file — down to hunks inside a single file when needed — and commits with messages matching the repo's convention. Use on…
