What's Wrong?

When typing a custom slash command prefix (e.g., /com), the command dropdown shows
two entries:

• "Commit (project)" (first, highlighted)
• "Commit (project,gitignored)" (second, also highlighted)

Expected Behavior:

• The first highlighted option should be selectable with Enter or arrow key

navigation

• Only one option should be highlighted at a time during keyboard navigation

Actual Behavior:

• The first option ("Commit (project)") appears highlighted but is not selectable

with keyboard navigation

• When using arrow keys to cycle through options, the first option is completely

skipped/ignored

• Only the second option ("Commit (project,gitignored)") is accessible via keyboard

navigation

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Create a custom slash command (e.g., ~/.claude/commands/commit.md)
2. In Claude Code, type the command prefix (e.g., /com)
3. Observe the dropdown shows two entries, both appearing highlighted
4. Try to select the first option with Enter key - fails
5. Try to navigate with arrow keys - first option is skipped

Environment:

• Platform: macOS (Darwin 24.6.0)
• Claude Code version: [your version]
• Only one custom command file exists: ~/.claude/commands/commit.md

Workaround:

• Second option is selectable with keyboard navigation

Additional Notes:
This appears to be Claude Code auto-generating contextual variants of the custom
command, but with a UI bug in the dropdown navigation logic.

What Should Happen?

Expected Behavior:

• The first highlighted option should be selectable with Enter or arrow key

navigation

• Only one option should be highlighted at a time during keyboard navigation
