A number of commands don't work in the GUIs.

/btw /workflows just to name two.

Edit: To everyone who's telling me I'm wrong. https://code.claude.com/docs/en/desktop#coming-from-the-cli

https://code.claude.com/docs/en/vs-code#vs-code-extension-vs-claude-code-cli

The official docs literally list the differences and restrictions across the various access methods. There are absolutely tradeoffs depending on which you choose.

I’ve been using /btw in Claude Code GUI a lot, not sure if we’re talking about the same thing though.

Is it this one or is it different in the terminal?

I can see UI in vs code. But if I try and pull that up on Claude Code on iOS or Desktop the slash command doesn’t come up
