Idea

The slice of a category over an object X is the category of morphisms into X. A morphism in the slice from f : A → X to g : B → X consists of a function h : A → B such that the triangle f ~ g ∘ h commutes. We make these definitions for types.

Definition

The objects of the slice category of types

Slice : (l : Level) {l1 : Level} (A : UU l1) → UU (l1 ⊔ lsuc l)
Slice l = type-polynomial-endofunctor (UU l) (λ X → X)

The morphisms in the slice category of types

module _
  {l1 l2 l3 : Level} {X : UU l1} {A : UU l2} {B : UU l3}
  where

  hom-slice :
    (A → X) → (B → X) → UU (l1 ⊔ l2 ⊔ l3)
  hom-slice f g = Σ (A → B) (λ h → f ~ (g ∘ h))

  map-hom-slice :
    (f : A → X) (g : B → X) → hom-slice f g → A → B
  map-hom-slice f g h = pr1 h

  triangle-hom-slice :
    (f : A → X) (g : B → X) (h : hom-slice f g) →
    f ~ g ∘ map-hom-slice f g h
  triangle-hom-slice f g h = pr2 h

Properties
