What's Wrong?
CC actually found the problem:
if((Zn()||zG()&&(aH(process.env.CLAUDE_CODE_BRIEF)||XA("tengu_kairos_brief",!1)))&&A&&!L)
The /btw feature is gated behind a feature flag called tengu_kairos_brief. It checks either:
- An environment variable CLAUDE_CODE_BRIEF is set, OR
- A server-side feature flag tengu_kairos_brief is enabled for your account
It's likely being rolled out gradually and your account hasn't been flagged yet.
The UI bug: the tips show that /btw is available, but it is advertising a feature that's still gated behind tengu_kairos_brief for your account. The hints are probably hardcoded in the binary without checking the feature flag.
What Should Happen?
/btw should be available, but it's not, even though it's advertised as available in the tips
