FAQPage Schema

How do I create a new slash command for my Claude plugin?▼

Create slash commands by running the create-command Skill, which generates a properly formatted command file at .claude/commands/{command-name}.md with auto-initialized plugin structure. The Skill validates your command name against the format ^[a-z0-9-]+$, collects a description, and provides local testing instructions.

What format and naming rules apply to slash commands in Claude plugins?▼

Slash command names must be lowercase alphanumeric with hyphens only, matching the pattern ^[a-z0-9-]+$. Slashes in the name are forbidden. The Skill enforces these constraints and generates the command file in the .claude/commands directory with proper template formatting.

Can I quickly set up a plugin structure when creating my first command?▼

Yes. The create-command Skill auto-initializes the plugin structure if it's missing, so you don't need to manually set up directories or configuration files before creating your first slash command.

How do I test a new slash command locally after creation?▼

The Skill outputs installation guidance with step-by-step instructions for testing commands locally in the Claude Code environment before publishing or deploying to production.

What does the create-command Skill do differently from manually writing command files?▼

The Skill removes complexity by automating file creation, template generation, name validation, and plugin initialization. It enforces proper formatting, standardizes command structure, and provides immediate installation steps—eliminating manual setup errors.
