Tab autocomplete broken for /add-dir directory arguments
Resolved 💬 3 comments Opened Mar 29, 2026 by zivgin Closed Apr 1, 2026
Description
Tab autocomplete no longer works when typing directory names after /add-dir. Previously, I could type /add-dir followed by a partial repo/directory name, press Tab, and it would autocomplete the full path. Now I have to type the exact full name manually.
Steps to Reproduce
- Open Claude Code
- Type
/add-dirfollowed by a partial directory name - Press Tab
- Expected: Directory name autocompletes
- Actual: Nothing happens — Tab triggers prompt suggestions instead
Context
This appears to be part of a broader Tab key regression introduced when Tab was reassigned to prompt suggestions/typeahead in v2.0.0+. Related issues:

Environment
- macOS
- Claude Code CLI (terminal)
