Commands & Snippets

Commands and snippets both save you from retyping the same thing. Commands are whole prompts you trigger with /; snippets are bits of text you drop into a message with #.

Commands

A command is a saved prompt you run with a slash, like /review. Manage them at Settings → Commands.

  1. Open Settings → Commands and create a command.
  2. Give it a name, a description, and the prompt text it should send.
  3. Optionally pin it to a specific agent or model.
  4. Choose personal or project scope.

In chat, type / as the first character of the message to bring up commands, then pick one. Your text can use placeholders:

  • $ARGUMENTS — whatever you type after the command
  • @filename — drops in the contents of a file
  • !`command` — drops in the output of a shell command

The built-in init and review commands can be reset but not deleted.

Snippets

A snippet is reusable text you reference inline with a hashtag, like #signoff. Manage them at Settings → Snippets.

  1. Open Settings → Snippets and create a snippet.
  2. Give it a name and the text it stands for. Add aliases if you want more than one trigger.
  3. Choose personal or project scope.

In chat, type # and pick a snippet. OpenChamber swaps in the full text before sending.
