Description

After updating to Claude Code v2.1.110 (released 2026-04-16), the Claude Desktop app on macOS stops showing most plugin-provided skills in the / command menu. Only schedule (from the scheduled-tasks built-in) appears. Skills from enabled plugins (codex, claude-hud, frontend-design, etc.) are no longer surfaced in the Desktop UI.

CLI (claude command in terminal) works correctly — all skills from enabled plugins load as expected.

This is a regression — skills were visible in the Desktop app's / menu on 2026-04-15 (prior version). Only appeared after the 04/16 auto-update to v2.1.110.

Environment

  • Claude Code version: 2.1.110
  • Platform: macOS (Darwin 25.4.0), Claude Desktop app
  • Enabled plugins:
  • claude-hud@claude-hud
  • codex@openai-codex
  • frontend-design@claude-plugins-official
  • github@claude-plugins-official
  • context7@claude-plugins-official
  • ~/.claude/skills/ is empty (all skills come via plugins)
  • ~/.claude/commands/ does not exist

Expected Behavior

The / menu in Claude Desktop should list skills from all enabled plugins, e.g.:

  • codex:setup, codex:rescue
  • claude-hud:setup, claude-hud:configure
  • frontend-design:frontend-design
  • etc.

Actual Behavior

Only schedule appears in the / filter. No plugin-namespaced skills are shown. Plugin tools (MCP-backed, like context7 and github) still work correctly — only skill discovery is broken.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Install Claude Desktop app, update to v2.1.110
  2. Enable several plugins that provide skills (e.g., codex@openai-codex, claude-hud@claude-hud)
  3. Open a new chat in Desktop app, type /
  4. Observe: only schedule appears; plugin-namespaced skills are missing
  5. Switch to CLI (claude in terminal) — all skills load correctly

Still reproducing on Claude Desktop (Code tab) — Windows, 2026-04-20

Reporting as a fresh data-point: this regression persists in the Claude Desktop app's bundled Claude Code runtime even though the CLI-side fix appears to have shipped. Desktop users have no way to force the embedded runtime forward independently of the app's own release cadence — claude update in the shell doesn't touch it.

Environment

  • Surface: Claude Desktop → Code tab (not the standalone claude CLI)
  • OS: Windows 11 ARM64
  • CLI versions installed side-by-side at ~/.local/share/claude/versions/: 2.1.109, 2.1.110, 2.1.114
  • Claude Desktop: current release (auto-update reports "up to date")

Symptom

  • / autocomplete in the Code tab lists plugin skills (anthropic-skills:*, codex:*, user skills) but omits the built-in /mcp command.
  • Typing /mcp explicitly and pressing Enter is a no-op — no interactive UI, no error.
  • MCP servers themselves are connected and functional (claude mcp list in a separate shell correctly lists them; their tools fire).

Ask
When the next Desktop release is cut, please confirm the bundled Claude Code runtime picks up the fix — that's the only upgrade path Desktop users have.
