[DOCS] Commands reference missing /rename session name display on prompt bar
Documentation Type
Incorrect/outdated documentation
Documentation Location
https://code.claude.com/docs/en/commands
Section/Topic
/rename command entry in the slash commands table
Current Documentation
The /rename command is documented in the commands reference as:
/rename [name] — Rename the current session. Without a name, auto-generates one from conversation history
What's Wrong or Missing?
Changelog v2.1.75 added "session name display on the prompt bar when using /rename". The commands reference describes the renaming behavior but does not mention where the session name is visually displayed. Users reading the /rename documentation have no way to know that the session name now appears on the prompt bar after renaming.
The /color command entry on the same page references the "prompt bar" by name ("Set the prompt bar color for the current session"), establishing it as the documented term for that UI element. The /rename entry should use the same terminology.
Suggested Improvement
Update the /rename description to mention the visual effect:
Before:
Rename the current session. Without a name, auto-generates one from conversation history
After:
Rename the current session. The name is displayed on the prompt bar. Without a name, auto-generates one from conversation history
Impact
Medium - Makes feature difficult to understand
