List slash-command matches while typing

Complete a command mid-prompt

Command completion also works partway through a prompt: type / after a space, then the first letters of a name, as in run the tests, then /com. Only commands whose names start with those letters match, so a file path such as /tmp/notes.md doesn't keep a list open. Claude Code runs a command itself only when the command starts your message.

• In fullscreen rendering: the matches open as a list while you type, with no row highlighted, so Enter still sends your prompt as typed. Press Tab to insert the top match, or pick a row with the arrow keys and Enter.
• Outside fullscreen: the rest of the top match appears as ghost text at your cursor, with a count such as +2 when more commands match. Press Tab to insert the only match, or to open the list when several match, then pick a row with the arrow keys and Enter.

In both renderers, press Tab on a bare mid-prompt / to list every command.

A plugin skill matches on its bare name too, so /deploy finds a skill named myplugin:deploy-app. When you insert the match, Claude Code writes the full /myplugin:deploy-app.
