[BUG] New commands not recognized in existing sessions; no way to trigger recognition
Resolved 💬 3 comments Opened Apr 12, 2025 by barelyknown Closed Jan 3, 2026
Environment
- Claude CLI version: 0.2.69
- Operating System: macOS 15.3.2
- Terminal: Any
Bug Description
When I add a new command to ~/.claude/commands (or the project), it is not available to existing claude sessions until they restart.
Steps to Reproduce
- Open a
claudesession - Create a command, i.e.
~/.claude/commands/hello-world.md - In the opened
claudesession, type/user:hello-worldand you won't see it
Expected Behavior
I would hope that it would notice new commands periodically, but at a minimum there should be a way to trigger it to rebuild the list of commands.
Actual Behavior
Nothing.
