Ask what a “power move” looks like in ChatGPT or Gemini, and people will point to a slash command or an @ mention. Ask what the equivalent is in Claude, and the honest answer is: there isn’t one. No hidden claude commands line layer, no special syntax sitting under the chat box waiting to be triggered.
What Claude does have is a model that follows a consistent instruction the same way every time you give it; which turns out to be just as useful. Build your own shorthand (“POLISH” always means the same kind of edit, “SOCRATIC” always means the same teaching style) and you get the reliability of a command system without Claude actually needing one.
Note: A few directives below do map to real, built-in features — Projects, Artifacts, connectors, and web search are marked as they come up. Everything else is disciplined phrasing, not syntax.
200 Claude commands, broken down by use case.
