The Best Slash Commands for AI Productivity

Typing a full prompt every time you want your AI to do something is slow. Slash commands fix that — type /morning and your agent runs a full morning briefing in one keystroke.

Here are the best slash commands to set up for daily productivity.

Built-in Commands in Noomachy

Noomachy ships with 10 built-in slash commands:

• /mac-info — system info (CPU, memory, disk, uptime)
• /clipboard — read your current clipboard
• /emails — last 10 emails summarized
• /unread — only unread emails from the last 7 days
• /today — today's calendar
• /week — next 7 days of calendar events
• /reminders — pending reminders
• /notes — your 20 most recent notes
• /morning — full morning briefing (calendar + emails + reminders)
• /focus — what you should focus on right now

Type any of these in chat and the agent runs them immediately.

Creating Your Own

Use /set to save a custom command:

/set deep-work Block out 2 hours of deep work time on my calendar starting now,
mute all notifications, and tell me what I should focus on.

Now /deep-work runs that exact prompt anytime.

The Best Custom Commands to Set Up

Here are battle-tested custom commands users have created:

/standup

Summarize what I worked on yesterday and what's on my plate today, formatted as a daily standup.

/inbox-zero

Triage my inbox: list urgent emails, suggest replies for the easy ones, archive newsletters.

/journal

Ask me three questions about my day and save my answers as a note titled with today's date.

/expenses

Search my emails for any receipts from the last 7 days and list them with amounts.

/research [topic]

Research [topic] using web search and Wikipedia, then save a summary as a new note. (Note: this one needs a placeholder system to be useful — Noomachy will auto-detect arguments after the slug.)

/end-of-day

What did I accomplish today? Look at my completed reminders and recent emails sent. Then ask me what tomorrow's top priority is.

/decision-log

Ask me about a decision I made today, why I made it, and what alternatives I considered. Save it as a note in the Decisions folder.

/weekly-review

Summarize the past week from my calendar, emails sent, and reminders completed. Surface anything important I missed.

How to Use Them

In Noomachy:

1. Open the Commands tab in the right panel
2. Click any command card to run it immediately (no copy-paste)
3. Or type /<command-name> in the chat input
4. Use /list anytime to see all available commands
5. Use /set to save a new one

The Productivity Effect

Once you have 10–15 well-tuned slash commands, your AI usage shifts. Instead of typing prompts, you fire shortcuts. The mental friction drops to near zero. Tasks that used to require opening 5 apps become a single /command.

This is the difference between an AI that's "useful" and one that's actually part of your daily flow.
