Commands

Halo's input box passes content directly to the underlying Claude Code, so all native Claude Code commands are available.

Common Commands

Command	Description
/compact	Compress the current conversation context to free up token space
/stats	View token usage statistics for the current conversation
/clear	Clear the current conversation history

---

/compact: Context Compression

After a long conversation, the context gradually approaches the model's token limit. At that point, send:

/compact

Claude Code will automatically summarize and compress the conversation history, preserving key context and freeing up space to continue.

TIP

When the conversation is very long, you can also open a new space directly, paste the key history into the new conversation, and say "The above is the history — please continue" to resume the task.

General Agent Capabilities

Halo runs on Claude Code and has full Agent capabilities. Anything you can do on the command line can be done with natural language:

Show me all the files in the current directory

Organize the desktop files — sort documents, images, and code into corresponding folders

Use Apple Script to open the terminal and run git pull

Check system memory usage and tell me which processes are consuming the most

The AI will autonomously plan execution steps and call any available tools — shell commands, file operations, browser, and more.
