Commands Plugin Slash Command Authoring

Use this skill when the user wants a reusable /command for Agent Zero's built-in _commands plugin.

Source Of Truth

  • Slash commands are file-backed, not database rows.
  • Each command uses:
    • one config file: <slug>.command.yaml
    • one content file:
      • text template: <slug>.txt, or
      • python hook: <slug>.py
  • Required config keys:
    • name
    • description
    • type (text or script)
  • Optional config keys:
    • argument_hint
    • include_history (script commands)
  • Preserve unknown config keys when editing existing commands.

Scope Resolution

Choose the target folder from the requested scope:

  • Project: usr/projects/<project>/.a0proj/plugins/_commands/commands/
  • Global fallback: usr/plugins/_commands/commands/

If the user does not specify a scope, prefer the active chat scope when it is clear. Otherwise use the global scope.

File Rules

  • Config file format: <slug>.command.yaml
  • Slash command name should be lowercase and hyphenated, for example explain-code
  • For text commands, keep the .txt template concise and directly reusable
  • For script commands, implement run(payload) in the .py file
  • If the command expects trailing input, use {raw}, {args.positional.0}, or {args.flags.some_flag}

Use the bundled templates in template.command.yaml and template.command.txt when creating a new text command from scratch.

Editing Workflow

  1. Determine scope and final slash command name.
  2. Check whether a command file already exists in that scope.
  3. If it exists, load the file first and preserve unknown frontmatter keys.
  4. Update YAML config and template/script content.
  5. Save the file in the correct scope folder.
  6. Report:
    • the saved config path
    • the saved content path
    • the slash command name in /name form

Output Contract

After saving, explicitly state the final file path and the exact slash command invocation, for example:

  • Saved config: /a0/usr/plugins/_commands/commands/explain-code.command.yaml
  • Saved content: /a0/usr/plugins/_commands/commands/explain-code.txt
  • Invoke with: /explain-code
