brew-ai Commands & Mentions
Beyond free-form chat, the brew-ai composer supports slash commands for common actions and @-mentions that reference entities in the model you’re working on.
Slash Commands
Section titled “Slash Commands”Type / in the composer to open a filterable command menu.
| Command | What it does |
|---|---|
/explain |
Sends “Explain what this model does.” to the assistant. |
/schedule |
Sends “Help me create a scheduled task for this model.” to the assistant. |
/find |
Sends “Help me find a functional.” to the assistant. |
/execute-functional |
A local command: pre-fetches the published functional catalog, then reopens the @ picker (headed “Run a functional”) so you pick a functional to run instead of typing a message. |
/clear |
A local command: starts a new chat, resetting the active conversation. Nothing is sent to the assistant. |
Most commands just send their fixed prompt text to the assistant, the same as typing it yourself. /execute-functional and /clear are handled locally in the composer instead.
@-Mentions
Section titled “@-Mentions”Type @ to open a picker of entities from the model you’re chatting about: functionals, inputs, and outputs, filtered as you type. Picking one inserts a mention chip into your message rather than plain text.
Once a mention appears in the chat — in your own message or in the assistant’s — hovering it highlights the matching component on the canvas, and clicking it focuses the canvas on that component.
