Slash commands
Type / in Forge Code to browse commands, or run /help. Forge Code ships 120 commands in the menu:
72 run on your machine, 14 use your Forge Cloud account, 6 hand a
prepared prompt to the model, 19 are bundled skills, and 9 name services that Forge doesn’t offer and say what to use instead.
Your own commands go in .forge/commands/<name>.md.
