# Slash commands

> Use deterministic chat commands for model selection, status, usage, resets, help, and compaction.

Slash commands are chat messages that begin with `/`.

SuperEmber handles supported commands before the model sees the message. This makes common control actions predictable and keeps them out of the agent's reasoning path.

## Slack Commands

In Slack, type commands in the same direct message or thread where you talk to SuperEmber.

These are message commands, not Slack workspace-level registered slash commands. If you are in a channel, mention SuperEmber before the command when the channel requires mentions for routing.

## Model Selection

Use `/model` to inspect or change the model for the current agent.

| Command               | What it does                                                                         |
| --------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| `/model`              | Shows the current model and suggested models.                                        |
| `/model default`      | Resets the agent to the platform default model.                                      |
| `/model <alias>`      | Sets a suggested model by alias, such as `gemini`, `mimo`, `deepseek`, or `minimax`. |
| `/model <model-slug>` | Sets any valid supported chat model slug that SuperEmber can validate.               |

The platform default can change as models and routing evolve. Use `/model` or the dashboard model picker to see the current default and supported choices.

Model selection is stored on the agent. For a personal Slack agent, this behaves like a per-user preference. For a shared agent, it changes that agent for everyone using it.

Expensive models burn credits faster. The dashboard model picker shows context and price hints where available.

## Other Commands

Command availability can vary by chat host and agent template. When exposed, these commands are deterministic:

| Command                   | Aliases     | Purpose                                                      |
| ------------------------- | ----------- | ------------------------------------------------------------ |
| `/help`                   | `/commands` | Show available commands and enabled capabilities.            |
| `/new`                    | `/clear`    | Start a fresh conversation while retaining previous history. |
| `/reset`                  | -           | Start a fresh conversation to free up the context window.    |
| `/usage`                  | `/cost`     | Show token and cost usage for the agent.                     |
| `/status`                 | `/whoami`   | Show the current chat status.                                |
| `/stop`                   | -           | Report detached drive cancellation status.                   |
| `/compact [instructions]` | -           | Request immediate conversation compaction when supported.    |

If a command is not enabled in the current chat, SuperEmber treats it like a normal message or replies with the relevant command help.
