$isSlash

The function $isSlash checks if the current command was triggered via a slash command (application command) rather than a classic prefix command.

Syntax

$isSlash

Parameters

None.

Return Value

• Type: Boolean
• true if the command was invoked via /command.
• false if it was invoked via prefix (!command, ?command, etc.).

Behavior

• Allows adapting behavior based on the invocation mode.
• Useful for sending ephemeral responses in slash mode ($sendEphemeral[]).
• No parameters: current command context only.
