What Are ChatGPT Slash Commands?

A ChatGPT slash command is a short keyword, like /eli5 or /photorealistic, that you type at the start of a message to tell the AI what kind of result you want. Instead of rewriting the same long instruction every time, you write the shortcut once and add your request after it.

They are prompt shortcuts, not built-in ChatGPT commands. ChatGPT reads them as ordinary text, so they work best once it knows what each one means. The library above has 500 of them, sorted into five categories, and it is free to use.

How to Use These Slash Commands

  1. Search or filter the list above, or leave it on “All” to browse everything.
  2. Click “Copy” on the command you want.
  3. Paste it at the start of your message and add your request after it, for example /proofread followed by your paragraph.
  4. Teach ChatGPT the shortcuts once. Star the commands you use, open the Picked filter, click “Copy shown as instructions,” and paste the result into Custom Instructions, a Project, or a Custom GPT.

Slash Command Examples

  • /eli5 how does a mortgage work for a plain-language explanation.
  • /photorealistic a red vintage car parked on a wet street at night for a realistic image.
  • /rewrite plus a paragraph, to get the same meaning in cleaner wording.
  • /swot plus a business idea, for a structured strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats table.
  • /cinematicphoto /goldenhour /bokeh a lighthouse at dusk to combine several image styles in one request.

The Five Command Categories

  • Image Prompts & Visual Styles (100 commands): Photo looks, lighting, lenses, camera angles, film stocks, art styles and 3D renders for image prompts.
  • Visual Thinking & Strategy (100 commands): Diagrams, explainers and strategy frameworks like SWOT and premortems that make an idea easier to see.
  • Content & Marketing (100 commands): Hooks, scripts, captions and platform formats for Reels, Shorts, TikTok, LinkedIn and more.
  • Writing, Productivity & Coding (100 commands): Rewriting, tone, planning formats and developer helpers, from proofreading to SQL and regex.
  • Creative & AI Workflows (100 commands): Brainstorming, decision-making, expert personas and prompt-workflow commands.

Tips for Getting Better Results

  • Pick a small set. Twenty commands you actually use beat five hundred you never remember.
  • Combine two or three commands, not ten. Stacking too many styles or instructions makes the output muddy.
  • Add specifics after the command. The shortcut sets the style or format, your request supplies the subject, audience and length.
  • Treat the first answer as a draft. Follow up with another command, like /shorten or /polish.
  • Need a custom prompt instead? Try one of our interactive prompt generators.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are these built-in ChatGPT slash commands?

No. They are prompt shortcuts: a short word at the start of your message that tells ChatGPT what kind of output you want. ChatGPT reads them as ordinary text, so they work best once you have told it what each one means.

How do I make ChatGPT understand these slash commands?

Use the "Copy shown as instructions" button to copy a definition for every command currently shown, then paste it into Custom Instructions, a Project, or a Custom GPT. Custom Instructions have a character limit, so star the commands you use and copy only your picks.

Can I use these commands in Claude, Gemini, or Copilot?

Yes. They are plain text with nothing ChatGPT-specific in them, so any chat-based AI assistant that has been given the definitions will follow them.

Can I combine more than one slash command?

Yes. Two or three usually work well together, for example /cinematicphoto /goldenhour /bokeh followed by your subject. Stacking many commands tends to make the result muddy.

Which slash commands should I start with?

For images, try /imageprompt and /photorealistic. For writing, try /rewrite, /shorten and /proofread. For thinking, try /eli5, /summarize and /actionplan.

Is this slash command library free?

Yes. It is completely free, has no sign-up, and runs in your browser. Your searches are not sent anywhere, and the commands you pick are stored only in your own browser.
