Slash commands are pre-packaged playbooks you trigger from the composer. Type / to open the command picker, pick one, then add your prompt.

How they work

1

Type a forward slash

Anywhere at the start of the textarea, type /. The command picker opens above the composer.
2

Filter with more characters

Keep typing to narrow the list. /res filters to /research.
3

Pick one

Use Arrow Up/Down + Enter, or click the row.
4

Type your message

The command becomes a chip in the composer. Type your actual prompt after it. Press Enter to send.
Eluu sends the slash and the command name as part of your message — your colleague sees /research <your prompt>.

Built-in commands

Two commands are available in every chat.

/research

Sends your colleague into deep-research mode. It plans, searches, reads documents, and synthesises before replying. Good for:
  • Competitive analysis (/research compare our pricing to Notion AI's)
  • Customer discovery (/research what is Acme Corp working on this quarter)
  • Topic surveys (/research what's happened in agentic infrastructure since April)

/create-plan

Asks your colleague to produce a multi-step execution plan before doing anything. Good for:
  • Complex tasks where you want to review the approach before commit (/create-plan migrate our HubSpot pipeline to Salesforce)
  • Ambiguous asks where you want the colleague to surface assumptions (/create-plan rebuild our weekly report)
Use /create-plan when you want to inspect the plan; skip it if you trust the colleague to go directly.

Per-colleague commands

Beyond the two built-ins, every colleague can define its own commands. These appear below the built-ins in the picker, with the colleague’s choice of name and description. To add a command to a colleague, edit the colleague (Colleagues → pick one → Edit) and go to the Abilities step. The Custom Playbooks section is where you define commands. A custom command is two things:
  • A name (without the slash) — e.g. weekly-brief.
  • A prompt — the instructions the colleague follows when invoked.
Once you save it, /weekly-brief appears in the picker for that colleague.
Custom commands are scoped to the colleague that owns them. A command on Sofia is not visible when chatting with another colleague.

Removing a command after you’ve picked it

The selected command becomes a dismissible chip before the textarea. To remove it:
  • Click the × on the chip.
  • Or press Backspace at column 0 of the textarea.

Quick actions

When you open a new chat, the four most-used commands appear as quick-action cards above the composer. Clicking one is the same as typing /{name} — it pre-fills the chip so you can add your prompt.

When not to use slash commands

If your prompt is direct and self-contained, you don’t need a command. /research and /create-plan are tools — pick them when the framing they impose helps.
