[Bug] @agent command fails to list custom agents in PowerShell on Windows

Resolved 💬 3 comments Opened Oct 7, 2025 by tjazevedo Closed Oct 11, 2025

Bug Description
Bug in Claude Code for Windows when running in PowerShell: the @agent command does not list custom agents available in the project. It only works correctly when running
via WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux). In PowerShell, custom agents configured in .claude/agents/ do not appear in the listing, while in WSL all are displayed normally.
