Slash Commands

Memoh bots support slash commands that are intercepted before the LLM runs. They are intended for fast inspection and control tasks such as viewing settings, switching providers, checking session status, or creating a fresh session.

Slash commands work in channel adapters and in the built-in Web UI chat. They do not consume model tokens just to parse the command itself.

Command Model

Most commands follow a resource-group pattern:

text

/resource [action] [arguments...]

Examples:

text

/schedule list
/model current
/schedule create morning-news "0 9 * * *" "Send a daily summary"

Key ideas:

resource is the command group, such as schedule, model, or status.
action is the specific operation, such as list, get, set, or latest.
arguments are positional values after the action. Use quotes when a value contains spaces.
Some groups have a default action, so /settings is equivalent to /settings get, and /status is equivalent to /status show.

Two commands are top-level instead of resource groups:

/new — create a new session for the current conversation route
/stop — abort the currently running generation for the current conversation

Built-in Help

The slash system has layered help built into it:

Command	Meaning
`/help`	Show the top-level command list
`/help <group>`	Show actions inside one group
`/help <group> <action>`	Show detailed usage for one action

Examples:

text

/help
/help model
/help model set

This is the fastest way to discover the exact live command surface for your current Memoh version.

Parsing Rules

Slash commands support a few convenience forms:

Mention-prefixed commands work in group chats, for example @BotName /help.
Telegram bot suffixes are accepted, for example /help@MemohBot.
Quoted strings are preserved as one argument, for example:

text

/schedule create morning-news "0 9 * * *" "Send today's top stories"

If the text does not resolve to a known command, Memoh treats it as a normal chat message instead of a slash command.

Permissions

Read-only actions are available to users who can already chat with the bot. Write actions such as set, create, update, delete, enable, and disable are owner-only.

In /help output, owner-only actions are marked with [owner].

Session Commands

`/new`

Creates a fresh session for the current conversation route. It is the fastest way to reset conversational context without deleting old history.

Supported forms:

/new — use the default session type for the current context
/new chat — force a normal chat session
/new discuss — force a discuss session

Default behavior:

Web UI local chat defaults to chat
Direct messages default to chat
Group conversations on channel adapters default to discuss

/new discuss is not supported in the built-in Web UI local channel. Use a channel adapter such as Telegram or Discord if you want explicit discuss sessions.

See Sessions for how chat and discuss differ.

`/stop`

Stops the current in-progress generation for the current conversation. This is useful when:

the bot is still streaming and you already have what you need
a tool loop is taking too long
you want to interrupt the current turn before sending a follow-up

Status And Inspection Commands

`/status`

Shows session-level runtime stats for the current conversation:

message count
current context usage
cache hit rate
cache read/write tokens
used skills in the session

Actions:

Action	Usage
`show`	`/status` or `/status show`
`latest`	`/status latest`

Use show for the currently active conversation route. Use latest when you want the newest session for the bot even if the current route has no active session.

`/access`

Shows the current identity and permission context that Memoh is using for the command:

channel identity
linked user
bot role
whether write commands are allowed
channel / conversation / thread scope
evaluated chat ACL result

Usage:

text

/access

This command is useful when debugging ACL rules, linked accounts, or why a write command was denied.

`/usage`

Shows token usage for the last 7 days.

Actions:

Action	Usage
`summary`	`/usage` or `/usage summary`
`by-model`	`/usage by-model`

text

/model list
/model list OpenAI

/model set gpt-4o
/model set OpenAI gpt-4o

`/memory`

Context Compaction Command

`/compact`

Triggers immediate session context compaction for the current session. This is different from memory compaction:

context compaction reduces the active prompt/history footprint of one session
memory compaction rewrites long-term memory entries in the memory provider

Actions:

Action	Usage
`run`	`/compact` or `/compact run`

Use this when the current conversation has grown long and you want Memoh to summarize older turns before continuing. See Context Compaction.
