Edit your
after/ftplugin/cpp.vim
script [1] and add a command with a -buffer modifier:
:command! -buffer ... CmdName ...
:h :com

Then the command will only be available local to the buffer.
(in case you wonder: there is no "local to the filetype" concept).

"cpp" in "cpp.vim" is the name of the filetype that Vim detects,
others may know better what will apply for your case.

[1] e.g. ~/.vim/after/ftplugin/cpp.vim (check your 'rtp' setting), you
may have to create the "after" and "ftplugin" directories first.
