# Commands

> Exact bang-prefixed words after the agent's @name, as the first line of an email, run a fixed action: !help, !configure, !status, !mute, !unmute, !restart, !fast, !feedback, !routines, !fork and connect.

A command is one of a few exact words starting with `!`, usually after the agent's @name, as the **first line** of your email. A first line of just `!help` works too. It runs a fixed action instead of a normal reply. These are the same commands Claude Tag understands in Slack.

`!help`, `!configure`, `!status`, `!mute`, `!unmute` and `!restart` must stand alone. Add words after them and the message is an ordinary request instead. `!fast` takes nothing, `on`, or `off`. `!routines` takes nothing, or another group. `!feedback` and `!fork` take text after them, which can run onto the following lines.

| Command | What it does | Who sees the answer |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `@cloud !help` | Lists the commands and links to the group's settings | The group |
| `@cloud !configure` | Links to the group's settings page. `!config` and `!settings` work too | The group |
| `@cloud !status` | Whether it's working in this thread, queued, or waiting for an approval, and the model it's using | Only you, by email |
| `@cloud !mute` | Stops replies in this thread | The group |
| `@cloud !unmute` | Resumes replies in this thread | The group |
| `@cloud !restart` | Starts the thread's next reply in a fresh session | The group |
| `@cloud !fast` | Turns fast mode on or off for this thread. `!fast on` and `!fast off` set it explicitly | The group |
| `@cloud !feedback <text>` | Sends your feedback to the Cloud Tag team | Only you get the thank-you |
| `@cloud !routines` | Lists this group's routines and when each runs next. `!routines #other-group` lists another group's | The group, or only you for another group |
| `@cloud !fork <what to do>` | Carries this thread on in a new thread, here or in another group (`!fork #other-group …`) | The group |
| `@cloud connect` | Asks the organization's admins to turn the agent on in this group | The admins, by email |

Answers that only you see come by email only when Gmail confirms you sent the command, and at most five an hour per person (thirty per group), so nobody can make the agent mail someone else by writing as them.

## !status

```text
@cloud !status
```

You get a private email that says one of:

- it isn't working on anything in this thread;
- your request is queued and starts in a moment;
- it's still working, and for how long;
- it's waiting for an admin to approve a tool call, with the link to the approvals page.

It also names the model and effort the thread runs on, and whether replies are muted.

## !mute and !unmute

`!mute` stops the agent replying in this thread until someone sends `!unmute`. It still reads and stores the thread, so it knows what was said if it's unmuted. To quiet the agent in the whole group, an admin turns on **Mute** on the group's Overview page. See [Control when it responds](https://www.cloudtag.tech/docs/users/when-claude-responds.md).

## !restart

`!restart` drops the thread's session. The next reply starts in a fresh sandbox with nothing left over from earlier work in the thread: files it made there, packages it installed, a task that got stuck. It still reads the thread from the archive, and it keeps the group's memory. Use it when a thread is stuck or has gone down the wrong path.

## !fast

Fast mode answers faster on Opus, at a higher price per token. It applies only to the thread you send it in. An Owner must allow fast mode for the organization first; until then the agent replies with where to turn it on. See [Choose the model](https://www.cloudtag.tech/docs/users/models.md#fast-mode).

## !feedback

```text
@cloud !feedback replies in this group are too long
```

The text goes to the team that runs Cloud Tag, with the group and thread it came from. You get a private thank-you. With no text after it, you get a private note on how to use it.

## !routines

Lists the group's routines: each one's name, schedule, time zone, whether it's on, and its next run. Admins manage routines on the group's **Routines** page; see [Routines](https://www.cloudtag.tech/docs/users/proactivity.md).

To see another group's routines, name it: `@cloud !routines #growth` or `@cloud !routines growth@yourcompany.com`. The list is emailed only to you.

## !fork

```text
@cloud !fork draft the customer reply based on what we settled here
```

Starts a new thread in the same group. The agent reads the original thread as background and does what you asked after `!fork`. The first line of your prompt becomes the new thread's subject, and fast mode carries over. The new thread works like any other: reply there to steer it.

Cloud Tag checks for an already accepted request when recovering a lost response. If an older fork's submission cannot be identified safely, **Recent turns** shows a review-needed error. It may already have run; an admin must inspect the session named there before retrying.

To carry the thread on in another group, name it first:

```text
@cloud !fork #growth turn this decision into the launch plan for the growth team
```

`#growth` matches a group by its address before the `@`, or by its name; a full address like `growth@yourcompany.com` works too.

## Naming another group

`!routines` and `!fork` can name another group of the same organization, as long as:

- the group has the agent turned on;
- you've posted there before;
- Gmail confirms your message really came from you.

Otherwise you get a private note saying why. If more than one group matches a `#name`, use the full address.

## connect

`@cloud connect` matters only in a group the agent's mailbox belongs to but hasn't joined. It emails the organization's Owners and Admins a **Yes / No** link asking whether it should join. Once the agent is on in the group, `connect` behaves like `!configure`. See [Set up Cloud Tag](https://www.cloudtag.tech/docs/admins/setup-overview.md#add-the-agent-to-a-group).
