Directive — Slash Commands Reference
Complete reference for all Directive slash commands invoked in IDE chat.
Slash Commands Reference
Slash commands are invoked in IDE chat (GitHub Copilot, Cursor, Claude Code, Antigravity). The agent orchestrates the workflow on your behalf: it asks questions, reads and writes files, and calls directive change:* CLI commands internally.
→ Context commands — /dtsx-project, /dtsx-stack, /dtsx-discuss, /dtsx-evaluate, /dtsx-kickoff
→ Change lifecycle commands — /dtsx-new, /dtsx-continue, /dtsx-propose, /dtsx-apply, /dtsx-verify, /dtsx-reflect, /dtsx-learn, /dtsx-sync, /dtsx-archive, /dtsx-commit

Two-mode interaction model
- Slash commands — invoke the IDE agent. The agent orchestrates: asks questions, reads/writes files, calls CLI commands internally.
- CLI commands — call
directive <cmd>in the terminal. Operate on the filesystem without agent involvement. Provide data and instructions that the agent consumes.
