slash commands

The slash commands tag covers Microsoft Teams development around invoking apps, agents, and workflows directly from the desktop and Mac compose box. Current coverage focuses on a feature Microsoft is targeting for general availability in August 2026, using a forward slash to start commands from chats and channels. The discussion looks at how this command surface could make Teams a more direct entry point for collaboration tools, automation, apps, and agent capabilities, rather than requiring users to navigate through tabs. Follow this tag for updates and analysis of slash commands in Teams as the feature progresses.
