MCP Commands

MCP commands are generated dynamically from connected servers.

Pattern:

/mcp__[server]__[prompt] [args]

Examples:

/mcp__github__list_prs
/mcp__github__create_pr
/mcp__jira__create_issue
/mcp__linear__get_sprint

Use /mcp to connect servers and inspect the commands they expose. Reconnect picks up .mcp.json edits without restarting Claude Code.

Environment Variables

Variable What it does
CLAUDE_CODE_CERT_STORE=bundled Uses bundled CAs only instead of the OS certificate store
CLAUDE_CODE_DISABLE_BUNDLED_SKILLS Hides bundled skills, workflows, and built-in slash commands from the model
CLAUDE_CODE_ENABLE_AUTO_MODE=1 Enables Auto mode on Bedrock, Vertex, and Foundry for supported Opus 4.7 and Opus 4.8 setups
CLAUDE_CODE_ENABLE_FEEDBACK_SURVEY_FOR_OTEL Re-enables the session quality survey for enterprises capturing responses through OpenTelemetry
CLAUDE_CODE_PERFORCE_MODE=1 Makes Edit/Write/NotebookEdit fail on read-only Perforce files with a p4 edit hint
CLAUDE_CODE_SAFE_MODE Starts Claude Code with customizations disabled for troubleshooting
CLAUDE_CODE_SCRIPT_CAPS Limits per-session script invocations
CLAUDE_CODE_USE_MANTLE=1 Enables Amazon Bedrock powered by Mantle
DISABLE_UPDATES Completely blocks all update paths, including manual claude update; stricter than DISABLE_AUTOUPDATER
CLAUDE_CODE_SESSION_ID Session ID
CLAUDE_CODE_USE_POWERSHELL_TOOL Opts into or out of the PowerShell tool rollout; on Linux and macOS, set it to 1 when pwsh is available
CLAUDE_CODE_FORCE_SYNC_OUTPUT=1 Forces synchronized output on terminals where auto-detection misses it, such as Emacs eat
CLAUDE_CODE_DISABLE_ALTERNATE_SCREEN=1 Opts out of the fullscreen alternate-screen renderer and keeps the conversation in the terminal's native scrollback
CLAUDE_CODE_PACKAGE_MANAGER_AUTO_UPDATE Lets Homebrew or WinGet installations run package-manager upgrades in the background, then prompt for restart
CLAUDE_CODE_ENABLE_GATEWAY_MODEL_DISCOVERY=1 Enables gateway /v1/models discovery for the /model picker
OTEL_LOG_TOOL_DETAILS=1 Adds tool parameters such as Bash commands and MCP or skill names to tool decision telemetry events
OTEL_RESOURCE_ATTRIBUTES Adds custom labels to OpenTelemetry metric datapoints, such as team or repository labels

Remote Control, /schedule, Claude.ai MCP connectors, and notification preferences are disabled when ANTHROPIC_API_KEY, apiKeyHelper, or ANTHROPIC_AUTH_TOKEN is set.

Notes

  • /vim was removed in v2.1.92. Use /config for editor mode settings.
  • /tag was removed in v2.1.92.
  • As of v2.1.118, /cost and /stats are merged into /usage; both still work as shortcuts.
  • /simplify now runs a cleanup-only review and applies simplification, reuse, efficiency, and structure fixes. Use /code-review --fix when you want bug-hunting fixes.
  • /extra-usage was renamed /usage-credits; the old command remains an alias.
  • The old CLAUDE_CODE_OPUS_4_6_FAST_MODE_OVERRIDE path is now a no-op.
  • If you customized the old modelPicker:setAsDefault keybinding, rename it to modelPicker:thisSessionOnly; the d action was replaced by s.
  • The dynamic workflow trigger keyword was renamed from workflow to ultracode; use /workflows to view larger background runs.
  • Managed settings can now set requiredMinimumVersion and requiredMaximumVersion so Claude Code refuses to start outside an approved version range.
  • disableBundledSkills and CLAUDE_CODE_DISABLE_BUNDLED_SKILLS can hide bundled skills, workflows, and built-in slash commands from the model.
