Rolit CLI
Slash commands
Every slash command available in rolit chat, with usage and what it changes.
Type / in the rolit chat composer to see suggestions. Use Up and Down to pick one, Tab to complete it, and Enter to run it. /help prints the full list.
Some commands change the tools the agent is given. Those changes are saved in .rolit/config.json and apply to the next chat session, because the tool list is fixed when a session starts. Commands that restart the session in place (/todo, /settings, /setup on|off, /lsp install) keep your history.
General
| Command | What it does |
|---|---|
/status | Shows login, project, run, and stream status. |
/tools | Shows the local tool profile and each connected MCP server. A server that failed to connect is listed with its error. |
/thinking [none|low|medium|high] | Shows or sets the model's reasoning effort. It applies to the next request without restarting. /reasoning is an alias. |
/context | Breaks the prompt down into system prompt, tool schemas, and messages, next to the gateway's token count for the last turn. |
/compact [aggressive] | Folds older history into a checkpoint at the next safe boundary instead of waiting for the automatic threshold. aggressive keeps a smaller recent tail to recover more room in one pass. |
/model [model id] | With no argument, opens a searchable picker over the available chat models. With an id, sets it directly. Applies to the next message. |
/permissions | Shows the current approval mode. |
/settings | Opens workspace feature toggles: Scheduler, Todo, and Decision (all on by default) plus a Permissions row. |
/todo [on|off] | Shows or changes planning mode (a session checklist). Restarts the session in place. |
/debug | Toggles the debug log view. Start rolit with --debug or ROLIT_DEBUG to capture logs. |
/select | Toggles selection mode: drag over transcript lines and release to copy them. Alt+M does the same. |
/copy [code|all|excerpt <words>] | Copies the latest response. code copies its last code block, all the whole transcript, and excerpt <words> the first paragraph containing those words. /cp and /yank are aliases. |
/voice | Toggles live dictation into the composer (Cmd+Z does the same). Run it again to stop. |
/summary [play|on|off] | Recaps the session now (same as Ctrl+S), spoken aloud when audio generation is on. on and off save the setting and apply immediately. /recap is an alias. |
/approvals | Reviews pending publish, send, and spend actions. See below. |
Settings details
/settings scheduler|todo|decision on|off sets a toggle without opening the panel, and /settings permissions shows the approval mode. Preferences are saved per workspace.
- Scheduler off hides the scheduling tools, blocks
/schedule, and stops new local scheduled runs. Existing runs finish and saved tasks are kept. - Todo off removes the checklist behavior.
rolit chat --todoand--no-todooverride the saved preference for one launch. - Decision off removes the
decision.apply,decision.status, anddecision.cancelchat tools and stops that workspace's running decision runs. Finished batches are kept.rolit decidestill works because you run it yourself.
