# What slash commands can I use in the AI Agent?

> Type / in the AI Agent's message box to fill in a ready-made request: plan your week, get a report, repurpose a text, ask why a post worked, or get ideas.

**Plans:** Pro and Business, and the free trial.

Slash commands are shortcuts for requests people make all the time. Type `/` in the AI Agent's message box and pick one. The Agent fills in a full request for you. You can change it before you send it.

## The five commands

| Command | What it asks for | What you add |
| - | - | - |
| `/plan-week` | A plan for next week across all your accounts | Nothing |
| `/report` | An engagement summary for a period | The period. It starts as `last 30 days`. |
| `/repurpose` | One post for each network, from a text you paste | The text |
| `/why` | What made a post work | The post. It starts as `my top post last month`. |
| `/ideas` | Five post ideas about a topic | The topic |

Here's the request each one writes for you:

* **`/plan-week`:** "Plan next week's posts across all my connected accounts: one idea per day, with the best time for each."
* **`/report`:** "Give me an engagement summary for the last 30 days: what grew, what dropped, and my three best posts."
* **`/repurpose`:** "Repurpose this for each of my connected networks, within each network's length limit:" Your text goes below it.
* **`/why`:** "Why did my top post last month work?"
* **`/ideas`:** "Give me 5 post ideas about coffee for my accounts." Your topic goes where "coffee" is.

## Use a command

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open the Agent">
    Click **Agent** in the sidebar.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Type / at the start of the box">
    The menu only opens when `/` is the first thing you type. Keep typing to narrow the list. For example, `/re` shows `/report` and `/repurpose`.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Pick a command">
    Click it, or use the arrow keys and press **Enter** or **Tab**. Press **Esc** to close the menu.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Fill in the blank">
    If the command needs something from you, that part is selected. Just start typing to replace it. For `/repurpose`, paste your text over `[paste the text here]`.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Press Enter to send">
    Picking a command doesn't send it. You can read and change the request first.
  </Step>
</Steps>

### Type the topic in one go

You can type what you want right after the command. For example, type `/ideas dog grooming` and pick **/ideas** from the menu. The request comes out as "Give me 5 post ideas about dog grooming for my accounts." The cursor goes to the end, ready to send.

The same works for `/report last 7 days` or `/why my last Reel`.

## Tips

* **Pick your accounts first.** The row of avatars at the top of the Agent sets which accounts it works with. `/plan-week` and `/repurpose` ask about all your connected accounts, but the avatars still decide what the Agent looks at.
* **The Agent may ask a question back.** For `/plan-week`, it may ask which account to plan for first. Answer in the box, or pick from the list it shows.
* **Commands only fill in text.** You can get the same result by typing the request in your own words. They don't do anything a normal message can't.
* **Planning makes drafts.** When the Agent writes posts for your plan, it asks before it schedules anything. See [Drafts and confirmations from the AI Agent](/help/ai/agent-drafts-and-confirmations).
