What's Wrong?
Plugin-qualified agent names (e.g. my-plugin:my-agent) are not resolved correctly in two places:
1. claude agents --agent flag (CLI)
--agent "my-agent"or--agent "my-plugin"→ emits warning _"no agent named 'my-plugin' — spawning with default template"_ but does load a session--agent "my-plugin:my-agent"→ no warning, but the agent does not load at all (silent failure)
2. FleetView (claude agents TUI)
- Typing
@my-agent,@my-plugin, or@my-plugin:my-agentin the new-session prompt → none appear in the autocomplete list - Pressing Enter with any of these does not start a session with the intended agent
What Should Happen?
--agent "plugin:agent"should resolve the agent from the named plugin and start the session with it (no warning, no silent failure)- FleetView autocomplete should list agents from installed marketplace plugins and load them correctly when selected
Steps to Reproduce
CLI path:
- Install a plugin from the marketplace (e.g.
my-plugin) that defines an agent (e.g.my-agent) - Run
claude agents --agent "my-plugin:my-agent" - Expected: session starts with agent
my-agentfrom pluginmy-plugin - Actual: no warning, no agent loaded
FleetView path:
- Open FleetView:
claude agents - Start a new background session
- Type
@my-plugin:my-agent(or@my-agent,@my-plugin) in the agent selector - Expected: agent appears in autocomplete and loads on Enter
- Actual: nothing appears; Enter does not load the agent

@bogini #35382 was marked as a duplicate of #34139, but the issues are not the same. In my case, the custom Marketplace agent does not have a multiline description, so that explanation does not apply. There appears to be a different root cause.
Could you please reopen this issue?
