What's Wrong?
When typing /, the autocomplete menu appears, but typeahead filtering doesn't work. Typing additional characters (e.g., /config) does not filter the command list - all commands remain visible regardless of what I type.
What Should Happen?
After typing /, continuing to type should filter the command list to show only matching commands. For example, typing /com should filter to show only /compact, /commit, /commands, etc.
Error Messages/Logs
````shell
No error messages. The menu appears but does not respond to typed characters for filtering.
