Commands & Workflows
Commands (also called slash commands or workflows) are executable prompt files that AI IDEs can run on demand. They're different from rules/configurations — commands are action-based prompts you invoke with /command-name.
What are Commands?
While blueprints like AGENTS.md or .cursorrules define persistent rules and context for your AI assistant, commands are on-demand prompts that perform specific tasks when invoked.
Rules & Configs
Always active, define behavior and context. Examples: AGENTS.md,.cursorrules, CLAUDE.md
Commands
On-demand actions triggered by /command. Examples: security audit, code review, refactoring tasks
Supported Platforms
LynxPrompt supports commands across multiple AI IDEs. Each platform uses a different directory structure:
| Platform | Directory | Invocation |
|---|---|---|
| Cursor | .cursor/commands/*.md | /command-name |
| Claude Code | .claude/commands/*.md | /command-name |
| Windsurf | .windsurf/workflows/*.md | /workflow-name |
| GitHub Copilot | .copilot/prompts/*.md | /prompt-name |
| Continue.dev | .continue/prompts/*.md | /prompt-name |
| OpenCode | .opencode/commands/*.md | /command-name |
Managing Commands with CLI
The LynxPrompt CLI automatically detects command files and lets you push, pull, and convert them between platforms.
Push a command to LynxPrompt
lynxp push .cursor/commands/security-audit.mdThe CLI auto-detects this is a Cursor command and sets the type accordingly.
Convert between platforms
lynxp convert .cursor/commands/audit.md --target claudeConverts to .claude/commands/audit.md
Detect all commands in a project
lynxp detectScans your project for all configuration files and commands.
Creating Commands
Commands are Markdown files with instructions for the AI. They can include variables using [[VARIABLE]] syntax.
Example: Security Audit Command
# Security Audit Perform a comprehensive security audit of the codebase. ## Tasks 1. Check for hardcoded secrets 2. Review authentication flows 3. Identify SQL injection risks 4. Check for XSS vulnerabilities 5. Review dependency versions ## Output Provide a markdown report with: - Severity levels (Critical, High, Medium, Low) - File locations - Recommended fixes
Finding Commands on Marketplace
Commands are available in the Blueprints marketplace. Use the type filter to show only commands:
Command blueprints are marked with a ⚡ badge showing the target platform (e.g., "Cursor Command", "Claude Command").
Exporting Commands
When downloading a command blueprint, you can choose which platform format to export to. The download modal shows the target filename and directory.
Export to any supported platform
Download a Cursor command as a Claude command, Windsurf workflow, or any other format.
