# Command Reference This guide documents all custom commands available in this AI code template. ## 🧠 Core Commands ### `/prime` - Philosophy-Aligned Environment Setup **Purpose**: Initialize your project with the right environment and philosophical grounding. **What it does**: 1. Installs all dependencies (`make install`) 2. Activates virtual environment 3. Runs quality checks (`make check`) 4. Runs tests (`make test`) 5. Loads philosophy documents 6. Prepares AI assistant for aligned development **Usage**: ``` /prime ``` **When to use**: - Starting a new project - After cloning the template - Beginning a new AI assistant session - When you want to ensure philosophical alignment --- ### `/ultrathink-task` - Multi-Agent Deep Analysis **Purpose**: Solve complex problems through orchestrated AI collaboration. **Architecture**: ``` Coordinator Agent ├── Architect Agent - Designs approach ├── Research Agent - Gathers knowledge ├── Coder Agent - Implements solution └── Tester Agent - Validates results ``` **Usage**: ``` /ultrathink-task ``` **Examples**: ``` /ultrathink-task Build a REST API with: - User authentication using JWT - Rate limiting - Comprehensive error handling - OpenAPI documentation - Full test coverage /ultrathink-task Debug this complex issue: [paste error trace] The error happens when users upload files larger than 10MB. Check our patterns in IMPLEMENTATION_PHILOSOPHY.md ``` **When to use**: - Complex features requiring architecture - Problems needing research and implementation - Tasks benefiting from multiple perspectives - When you want systematic, thorough solutions --- ### `/test-webapp-ui` - Automated UI Testing **Purpose**: Automatically discover and test web applications with visual validation. **Features**: - Auto-discovers running web apps - Starts static servers if needed - Tests functionality and aesthetics - Manages server lifecycle - Cross-browser support via MCP **Usage**: ``` /test-webapp-ui [test-focus] ``` **Examples**: ``` /test-webapp-ui http://localhost:3000 /test-webapp-ui "the React dashboard in examples/dashboard" /test-webapp-ui http://localhost:8080 "focus on mobile responsiveness" ``` **Server Patterns Supported**: - Running applications (auto-detected via `lsof`) - Static HTML sites (auto-served) - Node.js apps (`npm start`, `npm run dev`) - Python apps (Flask, Django, FastAPI) - Docker containers --- ## 📋 Planning Commands ### `/create-plan` - Strategic Planning **Purpose**: Create structured implementation plans for complex features. **Usage**: ``` /create-plan ``` **Output**: Detailed plan with: - Architecture decisions - Implementation steps - Testing strategy - Potential challenges - Success criteria --- ### `/execute-plan` - Plan Execution **Purpose**: Execute a previously created plan systematically. **Usage**: ``` /execute-plan ``` **Behavior**: - Reads the most recent plan - Executes steps in order - Tracks progress - Handles errors gracefully - Reports completion status --- ## 🔍 Review Commands ### `/review-changes` - Comprehensive Change Review **Purpose**: Review all recent changes for quality and consistency. **What it reviews**: - Code style compliance - Philosophy alignment - Test coverage - Documentation updates - Security considerations **Usage**: ``` /review-changes ``` --- ### `/review-code-at-path` - Targeted Code Review **Purpose**: Deep review of specific files or directories. **Usage**: ``` /review-code-at-path ``` **Examples**: ``` /review-code-at-path src/api/auth.py /review-code-at-path components/Dashboard/ ``` --- ## 🛠️ Creating Custom Commands ### Claude Code #### Command Structure Create a new file in `.claude/commands/your-command.md`: ```markdown ## Usage `/your-command [optional-arg]` ## Context - Brief description of what the command does - When and why to use it - Any important notes or warnings ### Process 1. First step with clear description 2. Second step with details 3. Continue for all steps 4. Include decision points 5. Handle edge cases ## Output Format Describe what the user will see: - Success messages - Error handling - Next steps - Any generated artifacts ``` ### Gemini CLI #### Command Structure Create a new file in `.gemini/commands/your-command.toml`: ```toml description = "Brief description of the command" prompt = """## Usage `/your-command [optional-arg]` ## Context - Brief description of what the command does - When and why to use it - Any important notes or warnings ## Process 1. First step with clear description 2. Second step with details 3. Continue for all steps 4. Include decision points 5. Handle edge cases ## Output Format Describe what the user will see: - Success messages - Error handling - Next steps - Any generated artifacts """ ``` ### Best Practices 1. **Clear Usage**: Show exact syntax with examples 2. **Context Section**: Explain when and why to use 3. **Detailed Process**: Step-by-step instructions 4. **Error Handling**: What to do when things go wrong 5. **Output Format**: Set clear expectations ### Advanced Features #### Sub-Agent Orchestration ```markdown ## Process 1. **Architect Agent**: Design the approach - Consider existing patterns - Plan component structure 2. **Implementation Agent**: Build the solution - Follow architecture plan - Apply coding standards 3. **Testing Agent**: Validate everything - Unit tests - Integration tests - Manual verification ``` #### Conditional Logic ```markdown ## Process 1. Check if Docker is running - If yes: Use containerized approach - If no: Use local development 2. Determine project type - Node.js: Use npm/yarn commands - Python: Use pip/poetry/uv - Go: Use go modules ``` #### File Operations ```markdown ## Process 1. Read configuration: @config/settings.json 2. Generate based on template: @templates/component.tsx 3. Write to destination: src/components/NewComponent.tsx 4. Update index: @src/components/index.ts ``` ## 🎯 Command Combinations ### Power Workflows **Full Feature Development**: ``` /prime /create-plan "user authentication system" /execute-plan /test-webapp-ui /review-changes ``` **Rapid Prototyping**: ``` /ultrathink-task "create a dashboard mockup" /test-webapp-ui "check the dashboard" [iterate with natural language] ``` **Debug Session**: ``` /prime [paste error] /ultrathink-task "debug this error: [details]" [test fix] /review-code-at-path [changed files] ``` ## 🚀 Tips for Effective Command Usage 1. **Start with `/prime`**: Always ensure philosophical alignment 2. **Use `/ultrathink-task` for complexity**: Let multiple agents collaborate 3. **Iterate naturally**: Commands start workflows, natural language refines 4. **Combine commands**: They're designed to work together 5. **Trust the process**: Let commands handle the details ## 📝 Command Development Guidelines When creating new commands: 1. **Single Responsibility**: Each command does one thing well 2. **Composable**: Design to work with other commands 3. **Progressive**: Simple usage, advanced options 4. **Documented**: Clear examples and edge cases 5. **Tested**: Include validation in the process ## 🔗 Related Documentation - [Automation Guide](automation.md) - Hooks and triggers - [Philosophy Guide](philosophy.md) - Guiding principles
