Release status

RightNow Agent, the terminal coding agent, is paused. Its guides stay online as reference.

Choose a command to type in the RightNow Agent composer.

Type / to open the menu, then type part of a command name to filter it.
Use Up and Down to select a command, Tab to complete its text, and Enter to submit a completed command.

Built-in commands

Use the categories below for lookup. Check render-mode limits and conditional commands when a command is missing.

Example output

Literal fixture excerpt: /status with an environment key, then text from the /help palette. The Model and Credential rows are paraphrased below.

rightnow: status and help

RightNow status
Provider    <provider-id>  <base-url>
Config      <config-path>
Keys        <auth-path> (owner-only, <stored-count> stored)
Commands
↑/↓ nav
Enter select
Esc close

Paraphrased model row: <model-name> is shown with model ID <model-id>.

Paraphrased credential row: The active key comes from <env-var> in the environment. Its value is masked; only <key-suffix> is shown. A stored key is also present and unused.

Typed-only forms, not listed in the menu: /yolo [on|off] sets always-approve, /plugin runs plugin actions such as list or reload, and /info shows session details. /plugins still opens the modal, and, in the TUI, /status keeps its provider-status behavior.

Render-mode limits

Fullscreen only: /find, /jump, /timeline, /theme, /tutorial, /workflows, /dashboard.
Minimal only: /expand, /edit-prompt.
Agent Dashboard only: /cd.
The menu hides commands that cannot run in the current render mode.

Conditional commands

These commands appear only when their runtime feature or capability is available.

When enabled, /auto switches to classifier-based permission mode; running it again returns to Ask.
When available, /recap requests a session summary outside the prompt queue; the result is not added to the model conversation. Its alias is /summarize.
When enabled, /voice starts or stops dictation; Esc stops recording and Enter stops and sends. Voice mode lasts for the current process and is not saved to config.toml.
When goal mode is enabled, /goal sets, checks, pauses, resumes, or clears an autonomous goal.
/memory, /flush, and /dream need memory; /loop needs the scheduler tool.

Unavailable commands are omitted

Voice keyboard shortcuts are disabled in the shipped template; /voice remains available when the voice feature is enabled. Image or video generation is denied by the shipped profile, so /imagine and /imagine-video stay hidden. Hidden diagnostics are not listed.

Skills as commands

An enabled skill with user-invocable: true appears in the same menu as /skill-name. Built-in names win collisions, so a project or plugin skill remains available through its qualified name such as /local:compact. Disable a skill through /skills to stop advertising its slash command.

For terminal input problems, run rightnow doctor and follow Troubleshooting. Shell commands are in the CLI reference; keys are in Keyboard Shortcuts.

Next task

Choose how to continue a session before using resume, fork or rewind.
