claude-code - 💡(How to fix) Fix Bring back the /buddy ghost easter egg (or make it an opt-in setting) [1 comments, 2 participants]

TL;DR

The /buddy command can potentially be restored by downgrading to a version between 2.1.89 and 2.1.96 or by waiting for a potential update that reintroduces this feature as an opt-in setting.

Guidance

• Review the changelog or release notes for versions after 2.1.96 to understand the reason behind the removal of the /buddy command.
• Consider reaching out to the development team with feedback on reinstating the feature, possibly as an opt-in setting, to gauge interest and potential for reimplementation.
• If the removal was due to a specific issue, investigate if there are community-driven solutions or workarounds that could temporarily restore the functionality.
• Evaluate the feasibility of creating a custom plugin or extension, if supported by the platform, to add back the ghost companion feature for personal use.

Notes

The solution depends heavily on the development team's priorities and the reasons behind the removal of the /buddy command. There might be technical or design reasons that led to its removal, which could affect the likelihood of its return.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Given the current version (2.1.117) no longer supports the /buddy command, and without an official update that reinstates it, looking into community solutions or awaiting a potential future update that includes it as an opt-in feature seems the most viable path forward.
