What's Wrong?

Version: 2.1.88 (regression from 2.1.87)

Describe the bug:
Custom slash commands stored in subdirectories of ~/.claude/commands/ (e.g., ~/.claude/commands/gsd/help.md) are no
longer recognized. Invoking /gsd:help returns Unknown skill: gsd:help. These commands worked correctly in 2.1.87.

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Create ~/.claude/commands/foo/bar.md with valid frontmatter (name: foo:bar)
  2. Run Claude Code and type /foo:bar
  3. Observe: Unknown skill: foo:bar

Expected: Command loads from ~/.claude/commands/foo/bar.md
Actual: Unknown skill: foo:bar

Workaround: Downgrade to 2.1.87 restores functionality.

What Should Happen?

Nothing should be broken - test by installing this
