Use this as the body of the skill / rules file in any client. It’s the same text everywhere - only the install location changes.Download slashy.md
Ready-made skill file. Save into the location for your client below.
Install in your client
- Claude Code
- Claude Desktop
- Cursor
- Codex CLI
Save as Paste the skill contents above. Claude Code picks it up automatically on next session start. Test by asking “what’s in my inbox?” - Claude should call Slashy tools.
~/.claude/skills/slashy.md:Verifying the skill works
Start a fresh session in your client and run a test prompt:“What are the top 3 emails I should reply to today?”The AI should call
list_messages or a similar Slashy tool - not answer from general knowledge or ask what your inbox looks like. If it doesn’t, check:
- The Slashy MCP server is connected (
claude mcp list, Cursor MCP panel, etc). - The skill / rules file is in the right location and saved.
- You started a new session after installing (Claude Code and Codex load skills at startup).
Combine with your own prompts
The skill is the baseline - it turns Slashy on by default. For specific workflows you run repeatedly (meeting prep, weekly follow-up sweep, inbox triage), add separate prompts or additional skills layered on top. See Using Slashy MCP for ready-made example prompts.Next steps
