AI Prompt Commands & Parameters

435 commands & parameters · 13 AI tools · official sources only

AI tools are increasingly driven by what you type, not what you click: slash commands steer coding agents, @ mentions attach context, and generation parameters shape images and video. This section is a structured reference for that typed layer - the commands, parameters, and prompt syntax of AI tools - built the same way as our keyboard shortcuts reference: every entry is a literal token taken from official documentation, with a description and a usage note, and every table links its source.

This is deliberately not a prompt gallery. There are no prompt templates or example prompts here; those age fast and are easy to find elsewhere. What is hard to find is a maintained, machine-readable list of what a tool actually accepts: which slash commands exist in Claude Code today, what every Midjourney parameter does, or how A1111 attention weighting is spelled. That is what these pages hold, and the same data is available as JSON through our public API.

Keyboard shortcuts for these tools remain in the Shortcuts section - the two references are linked both ways, so a platform page in one section points to its counterpart in the other.

Prompt Syntax & Weights (15)

Command / SyntaxWhat it doesNotes
(word)Increase attention to word by a factor of 1.1Wrap any prompt token in parentheses.
((word))Increase attention by 1.21 (1.1 x 1.1)Stack parentheses to multiply the effect.
[word]Decrease attention to word by a factor of 1.1Square brackets reduce emphasis; no numeric weight allowed.
(word:1.5)Set an explicit attention weight on wordWeights work with () only. Default weight is 1.1.
(word:0.25)Decrease attention by an explicit factorValues below 1 reduce influence (0.25 = quarter strength).
\(word\)Use literal parentheses characters in the promptEscape with backslashes: anime_\(character\).
BREAKFill the current 75-token chunk with padding and start a new chunkMust be uppercase. Controls how long prompts are split.
[from:to:when]Prompt editing: swap from one text to another mid-samplingwhen is a step number or a 0.0-1.0 fraction of steps.
[to:when]Add text to the prompt after a fixed number of stepsAdds the to text once step when is reached.
[from::when]Remove text from the prompt after a fixed number of stepsDrops the from text once step when is reached.
[cow|horse]Alternating words: swap tokens every other sampling stepStep 1 uses cow, step 2 horse, and so on.
prompt1 AND prompt2Composable diffusion: combine multiple promptsAND must be uppercase. Supports weights: a cat :1.2 AND a dog.
<lora:filename:multiplier>Apply a LoRA at the given strengthFilename without extension; multiplier usually 0-1. Not allowed in the negative prompt.
<hypernet:filename:multiplier>Apply a Hypernetwork at the given strengthSame syntax family as LoRA extra networks.
embedding-filenameTrigger a Textual Inversion embedding by its filenamePlace the embedding's filename anywhere in the prompt.

Frequently Asked Questions

What counts as a prompt command on this site?

A literal, typeable token from official documentation: slash commands, @ mentions, chat variables, generation parameters, and prompt syntax operators. We do not collect prompt templates or example prompts.

How is this different from the keyboard shortcuts pages?

The Shortcuts section covers keys you press and terminal CLI invocations. This section covers what you type inside an AI tool's prompt to control it - commands, parameters, and syntax.

Where does the data come from?

Each platform lists its source: official docs pages, vendor help centers, or the project's own wiki. Every table links its source, and nothing is invented.

Developers: this data is available as JSON at /api/v1/prompts/all.json and per platform at /api/v1/prompts/<key>.json.
