Start a fresh conversation without restarting
slash commands
// what it does
/clear (aliases /reset, /new) wipes the current context and starts a new conversation in the same session, the fastest way to switch to an unrelated task without carrying stale context. Your previous conversation is preserved and can be reopened with /resume. Input history also resets, so Up no longer recalls the prior task's prompts.
// shell
$ /clear// gotcha
Unlike /compact, /clear discards the conversation from context entirely rather than summarizing it — start a genuinely new task with it, not a continuation. The old thread isn't gone, though; find it under /resume.
