/batch

slash never mined documented JSON

A Claude Code slash command, read out of the shipped bundle. No mined inventory carries it: everything below comes from what this site has written about it.

Skill. Orchestrate large-scale changes across a codebase in parallel. Researches the codebase, decomposes the work into 5 to 30 independent units, and presents a plan. Once approved, spawns one background subagent per unit in an isolated worktree. Each subagent implements its unit, runs tests, and publishes its change. Requires a git repository or a WorktreeCreate hook that creates the worktrees. Outside a git repository, /batch requires Claude Code v2.1.281 or later. Example: /batch migrate src/ from JavaScript to TypeScript

Anthropic's own wording. Read off Commands, captured 2026-09-28.

The earliest release whose published evidence quoted /batch was v2.1.281, 23 Sep 2026. That is the oldest release this project wrote about it, so it is a floor on the name's age and not the release that introduced it. It is not a presence reading: which builds carried the name is the table below.

ReleaseDateThe span that was quoted
v2.1.28123 Sep 2026The `/batch` command runs each agent in its own isolated worktree, and none can be created here: this directory is not in a git repository and no WorktreeCreate hook is configured.

The miner has never read a build containing this name. It is here because a changelog entry of ours names it, which is evidence that it existed and not evidence of which releases carried it. The inventory starts at v2.1.138 and everything older than that was never mined.

Read out of the published npm bundle release by release, and out of Anthropic's own documentation as this site captured it. Nothing on this page is a description anybody here wrote about what the slash command does. All slash commands.
