You can create your own reusable workflows in Claude Code.

Older custom slash commands still work from .claude/commands or ~/.claude/commands. Newer Claude Code guidance folds commands into skills, so the preferred pattern is usually a skill directory such as .claude/skills/status/SKILL.md.

Use commands for simple shortcuts. Use skills when you want reusable instructions, examples, scripts, assets, or a more complete workflow. The goal is the same either way: encode the repeatable parts of your team’s process so Claude does not have to rediscover them every session.
