/rlm

Toggle or configure RLM (Recursive Language Model) mode.

Usage

• `/rlm-claude-code:rlm` — Show current RLM status and configuration
• `/rlm-claude-code:rlm on` — Force RLM mode for this session
• `/rlm-claude-code:rlm off` — Disable RLM mode (use standard Claude Code)
• `/rlm-claude-code:rlm auto` — Use complexity-based activation (default)
• `/rlm-claude-code:rlm verbose` — Enable verbose trajectory output
• `/rlm-claude-code:rlm debug` — Enable debug trajectory output with full content

> **Tip**: You can create a shell alias: `alias rlm='claude skill rlm-claude-code:rlm'`

Current Configuration

Check `~/.claude/rlm-config.json` for:

• `activation.mode`: "complexity" | "always" | "manual"
• `depth.default`: 2
• `trajectory.verbosity`: "minimal" | "normal" | "verbose" | "debug"

When to Use

Force RLM on when:

• Working with large codebases (>50 files in context)
• Debugging complex multi-file issues
• Refactoring across module boundaries
• You want to see the reasoning trajectory

Force RLM off when:

• Simple file operations
• Quick questions about single files
• You want faster responses for simple tasks

Trajectory Verbosity

| Level | Shows | |-------|-------| | minimal | RECURSE, FINAL, ERROR only | | normal | All events, truncated content | | verbose | All events, full content | | debug | Everything + internal state |
