Voxta Chat commands
Slash-prefixed commands you can type in chat to inject events, notes, trigger events, capture vision, and more.
You can send slash commands in chat to do things you can't do with a normal message — inject narrated events, hidden notes, trigger scenario events, regenerate the last reply, capture a webcam frame, set flags.
Commands are case-insensitive and prefixed with /.
Message injection
| Command | What it does |
|---|---|
/event text | Inject a narrated event message. Visible to all, read by the narrator. |
/story description | Same as /event but the story writer generates the actual text from your description. |
/note text | Silent note — visible to both AI and user, not read aloud. |
/instructions text | Hidden from the AI, visible to you. |
/secret text | Hidden from you, visible to the AI. |
/char text | Send a message as the main character (impersonating the AI). |
/message --args -- text | Full control over role, character, generation caps and expiry. See Custom messages. |
Expiring an injected message
/note, /secret and /instructions accept an expiry, which drops the message from the prompt after N
conversation turns instead of leaving it there for the life of the chat. Put the options first, then --, then
the text:
/secret --expires-after-turns 2 -- {{ char }} is sitting on the couch, watching TV.Arguments are only read when the text starts with --; anything else is the message verbatim. See
Expiring messages.
Chat flow control
| Command | What it does |
|---|---|
(empty message) or * | Trigger a reply without injecting anything. Doesn't interrupt currently-playing audio. |
/noreply text | Send a user message that doesn't trigger an AI reply. |
/repeat | Speak the last character reply again. |
/summarize all | Force summarization of all current chat messages. |
Scenario integration
| Command | What it does |
|---|---|
/trigger eventName | Fire a scenario event by name. |
/setflags flag1 flag2 !flag3 | Set or unset flags. Prefix with ! to unset. |
/context text | Set a context string for the current turn. |
Vision
| Command | What it does |
|---|---|
/capture | Grab a frame from the active Vision Capture source (webcam or screen) and include it in the next reply. Requires the Vision augmentation and a Computer Vision-capable LLM. |
