Claude Code global slash commands live in ~/.claude/commands/<name>.md. The filename (minus .md) becomes the command name (e.g., sync-config.md → /sync-config). The markdown content is the prompt that gets executed when the command is invoked. Created /sync-config to commit and push ~/.claude config to its Gitea repo (homelab remote, main branch).
