[BUG] @ autocomplete regression: lowercase queries no longer match uppercase paths
Resolved 💬 3 comments Opened Apr 11, 2026 by richardmthompson Closed Apr 15, 2026
Description
Lowercase @ mention queries no longer match paths containing uppercase characters. This is a regression — it previously worked.
Reproduction
- Have a directory structure with uppercase names, e.g.
vox-systems-inc/agents/CEO/ - Type
@ceoin the input - Expected:
vox-systems-inc/agents/CEO/appears in autocomplete - Actual: No match
Similarly, @working does not match a directory named working/ if searched as @WORKING — but the primary issue is lowercase-to-uppercase (the common case).
Environment
- macOS (case-insensitive filesystem)
- Claude Code (latest version)
Context
This is related to but distinct from #14623 (closed, not planned). That issue reported inconsistent mixed-case matching. This issue reports a regression where case-insensitive matching that previously worked has stopped working. Lowercase queries matching uppercase paths is the most common real-world pattern (users type lowercase, paths often contain uppercase).
