VS Code: skill autocomplete resolves wrong skill when typing exact name

Bug

When using a plugin with multiple skills in the VS Code extension, typing the exact skill name in the slash command resolves to the wrong skill.

Repro

Plugin: devils-advocate (5 skills: critique, critique-plan, pre, second-opinion, log)

  1. Type /devils-advocate → all 5 skills appear correctly: /critique /critique-plan /pre /second-opinion /log
  2. Type /devils-advocate:critique → only /second-opinion appears in the dropdown
  3. Selecting it runs second-opinion instead of critique

Expected

Typing /devils-advocate:critique should resolve to the critique skill (exact match) or at minimum show it as the top result.

Environment

  • VS Code Claude extension
  • Plugin installed from GitHub marketplace
  • All skill frontmatter names are correct and unambiguous (name: critique vs name: second-opinion)
  • Works correctly in the CLI (claude in terminal)
