What's Wrong?
I have written and maintain a marketplace with plugin-based skills and commands. In order to test this locally, I point my claude code user config to the marketplace directory. After adding a new command to one of the plugins, I could not get new sessions of CC to be aware of the new slash command until I completely removed and re-added the marketplace (updating either the marketplace or the plugin did not help).
What Should Happen?
Updating the marketplace and/or plugin explicitly should see the newly-added components.

- Add a valid command file
- Use "Update now" on the marketplace/plugin and start a new claude code session
- Command doesn't appear until marketplace is removed and re-added
