What's Wrong?

Setting "Prompt suggestions" to true via /config does not persist when starting new Claude Code sessions, only for the current session when it was enabled.

The setting.json promptSuggestionEnabled has no effect on the behaviour / persistence.

Current session for which prompt suggestions has been enabled / set to true

Exiting claude and relaunching claude from the same terminal or in a 2nd terminal reverts the prompt suggestions back to false

What Should Happen?

Like all other config options, setting Prompt suggestions to true should persist when starting new sessions.
