Description

Custom project-level slash commands from .claude/commands/ are not loaded in Claude Code v2.1.89. They don't appear in the / autocomplete list and Skill tool returns "Unknown skill" when trying to invoke them.

Steps to reproduce

1. Create .claude/commands/morning.md with valid frontmatter:

   ---
   name: morning
   description: "Morning briefing"
   ---
   # Morning command content...

2. Start a Claude Code session from the project directory
3. Type / — custom commands don't appear in the list
4. Try invoking via Skill tool — returns "Unknown skill: morning"

What was tried

• Adding YAML frontmatter with name and description — no effect
• Creating .claude/skills/morning/SKILL.md (plugin-style format) — no effect
• Removing symlinks from commands directory — no effect
• Disabling all plugins (enabledPlugins: {}) — no effect
• Both project-level (.claude/commands/) and global-level (~/.claude/commands/) commands are affected
• claude skills list CLI command DOES show the commands, but they're not available in sessions

Expected behavior

Commands from .claude/commands/*.md should appear as /command slash commands in the session, as they did in previous versions.

Environment

• Claude Code v2.1.89
• Linux (Ubuntu)
• Node.js based installation
