How Terminal Commands Work

Godel Terminal is driven by a command line at the top of the workspace. You type a short mnemonic — optionally prefixed with a security identifier — to open a function: a description, a chart, time-and-sales, fundamentals, filings, and so on. This page explains how that syntax is structured. It is not a full reference — the authoritative list of every command lives in the official Godel documentation.

The command syntax

Most commands follow one of two patterns. Security-scoped commands take a ticker and an asset-class qualifier before the command itself. Global commands — anything that isn't about a specific security — are entered on their own.

What commands can do

At a high level, Godel's command set covers the same surface area as any professional terminal. Rather than memorising individual commands up front, it's more useful to know which capability areas exist — then look up the specific mnemonic when you need it.

Full command reference

For the complete, up-to-date list of every command — including exact syntax, parameters, and examples — use the official Godel documentation. It is maintained by the product team and reflects the terminal's current behaviour.
