Commands
Slash commands to use with your assistant — copy from here or from Guide in the app.
Your assistant creates and updates carousel files in your folder. Casper shows and approves the result. These commands are typed in assistant chat (Cursor, Claude Code, Codex, ChatGPT) — not in Casper itself.
The Guide section in the Casper sidebar has the same blocks ready to copy. Prefer Guide when you are unsure — it always matches your installed version.
Start here
Not sure which command to use? In Cursor / Codex, run /casper-help first — it routes you to the right workflow and shows copyable briefs.
| Step | Command | When |
|---|---|---|
| Find your command | /casper-help | You are unsure what to ask or which slash to use (agent chat only). |
| New carousel | /create-slide | First message for a new deck — theme, length, tone, 4:5 format. |
| Brand voice | /create-soul | Questionnaire → repository/SOUL.md (tone, CTAs, vocabulary). |
| Apply your notes | /apply-comments | After you left comments in the inspector. |
| Edit existing deck | /edit-slide | Change copy, layout, or pages on a deck that already exists under slides/. |
| New look | /create-theme | Extract a reusable visual theme from a deck or brief. |
/create-slide
Scopes the deck (theme, page count, layout strategy), writes a short plan, then
builds the screens under slides/<id>/.
/create-slide for "Product launch — Instagram 4:5, 7 screens, waitlist CTA"
/create-slide from repository/launch-notes.md — same brief, use that file as source/apply-comments
Reads comment markers you saved from the canvas and updates only those regions.
/apply-comments/edit-slide
Edits an existing deck — copy, layout, page order, or theme on pages already under slides/<id>/. Does not run full /create-slide scoping. For inspector markers only, prefer /apply-comments.
/edit-slide on slides/product-launch — tighten CTA on screen 3
/edit-slide rename deck title to "Q3 launch"/create-soul
Defines or refines repository/SOUL.md — tone, audience, vocabulary, and
default CTA. Your assistant asks a few questions first, then writes the file.
/create-soul/create-soul refine — warmer tone, pt-BR, CTA to my newsletter/create-theme
Creates a shared theme your assistant can reuse on the next deck. New themes
are written to themes/custom/ so they survive kit sync — they appear in
the Themes gallery with id custom/your-name.

Ask your assistant to pick ids from catalogs you can see in Casper:
| Sidebar | Helps with |
|---|---|
| Composition | Page skeletons for /create-slide. |
| Themes | Visual direction for new decks. |
| Examples | Reference carousels to imitate. |
| Infographic layouts / styles | /generate-infographic — see Infographics. |
| Assets | Images already in your project. |
See Themes and layouts and Assets.
What Casper does not use
You do not run npx, npm install, or terminal scaffolds to produce
carousels. Install the Casper app, open your folder, use the commands above
in your assistant.
