What's Wrong?

## Bug Report: "Unknown slash command: rate-limit-options" error when hitting rate limits

### Description
When hitting session rate limits in Claude Code, an error message appears: "Unknown slash command: rate-limit-options". This suggests that Claude Code's rate-limiting handler is attempting to
invoke a slash command that doesn't exist or isn't properly registered.

What Should Happen?

### Expected Behavior
When hitting rate limits, Claude Code should either:

  • Display rate limit information and options for the user
  • Show a helpful message about when limits will reset
  • Provide guidance on rate limit tiers or upgrade options

Error Messages/Logs

Unknown slash command: rate-limit-options

Steps to Reproduce

### Steps to Reproduce

  1. Use Claude Code (claude --version = 2.0.65 (Claude Code)) normally until hitting the session rate limit
  2. Observe the error message when the rate limit is triggered
