Claude Code Linux Desktop Slash Commands

A collection of slash commands for Claude Code CLI designed to streamline system administration, optimization, and configuration tasks on Linux desktop systems.

Also provided: a script for setting up a repo-style workspace for Claude Code to focus on sysadmin tasks. The script populates a CLAUDE.md describing the purpose and creates (or on subsequent runs non-destructively syncs) the slash command library in this repo.

Automated Workspace Setup

This repository includes a setup script that creates a dedicated Claude Code workspace for desktop system administration at ~/claude-spaces/desktop-sys-admin.

Run the setup script:

bash ~/repos/github/Claude-Code-Linux-Desktop-Slash-Commands/setup-desktop-sysadmin-workspace.sh

What the script does:

1. Creates workspace directory structure at ~/claude-spaces/desktop-sys-admin
2. Syncs all 93+ slash commands to .claude/commands/ (organized by category)
3. Generates CLAUDE.md with workspace configuration and instructions
4. Gathers current system information (CPU, GPU, RAM, OS, network, dev tools) into context/system-info.md
5. Creates user-facing README.md documentation
6. Initializes a git repository for version control
7. Sets up .gitignore for temporary files

Using the workspace:

cd ~/claude-spaces/desktop-sys-admin
claude-code

Once in the workspace, Claude Code has full context about your system and access to all slash commands. Type / to see available commands organized by category.

Updating the workspace:

Re-run the setup script to sync the latest slash commands and refresh system information:

bash ~/repos/github/Claude-Code-Linux-Desktop-Slash-Commands/setup-desktop-sysadmin-workspace.sh

The script uses rsync to efficiently update only changed files while preserving the directory structure.

Command Structure & Organization

Two Directory Structures

This repository maintains slash commands in two parallel structures:

1. commands/ - Organized by category in nested directories (primary source)
2. commands-flat/ - Flattened structure with all commands in one directory

Flattening Workflow

The flatten-commands.sh script converts the categorized structure into a flat structure for easy deployment to Claude Code workspaces.

Run the flattening script:

bash ~/repos/github/Claude-Code-Linux-Desktop-Slash-Commands/flatten-commands.sh

What the script does:

1. Clears the commands-flat/ directory
2. Recursively finds all .md files in commands/
3. Flattens the directory structure by replacing / with - in filenames
4. Copies all commands to commands-flat/

Example transformation:

commands/system-health/system-upgrade.md → commands-flat/system-health-system-upgrade.md
commands/security/probe-vulnerabilities.md → commands-flat/security-probe-vulnerabilities.md

When to use flattening:

• Before copying commands to a Claude Code workspace
• When you need all commands in a single directory
• For easier deployment without preserving category structure

Note: The setup-desktop-sysadmin-workspace.sh script uses the categorized commands/ structure (not the flattened version) to maintain organization in the workspace.
