When typing /resume and pressing Tab, Claude Code shows a list of previous session titles as autocomplete candidates. There should be an option to disable this behavior.

Root Cause

When typing /resume and pressing Tab, Claude Code shows a list of previous session titles as autocomplete candidates. There should be an option to disable this behavior.

Code Example

{
  "slashCommandCompletionEnabled": false
}
RAW_BUFFERClick to expand / collapse

Summary

When typing /resume and pressing Tab, Claude Code shows a list of previous session titles as autocomplete candidates. There should be an option to disable this behavior.

Current Behavior

  1. Type /resume in the input
  2. Press Tab
  3. A list of previous session titles appears as completion suggestions (e.g., nextjs-16.2-upgrade-analysis)

Expected Behavior

An option to suppress the /resume tab completion candidates, so pressing Tab after /resume does nothing (or the user can simply press Enter to get the interactive session picker).

Use Case

  • The autocomplete candidates are distracting and not useful when you already know you want the interactive picker
  • Old session titles clutter the completion list
  • promptSuggestionEnabled: false in settings.json only disables prompt ghost text suggestions — it has no effect on slash command argument completion

Proposed Solution

Add a setting to disable slash command tab completion, or at minimum allow disabling it for /resume specifically. For example:

{
  "slashCommandCompletionEnabled": false
}

Environment

  • Claude Code: 2.1.100
  • macOS (Darwin 25.4.0)
  • Terminal: CLI

extent analysis

TL;DR

Adding a setting to disable slash command tab completion, such as "slashCommandCompletionEnabled": false, may resolve the issue.

Guidance

  • Review the proposed solution and consider adding a setting to disable slash command tab completion, either globally or specifically for the /resume command.
  • Verify that the promptSuggestionEnabled setting only affects prompt ghost text suggestions and not slash command argument completion.
  • Check if there are any existing settings or configuration options that may achieve the desired behavior without requiring a new setting.
  • Test the proposed solution in different environments and Claude Code versions to ensure consistency.

Example

{
  "slashCommandCompletionEnabled": false
}

This example shows how the proposed setting could be implemented in the settings.json file.

Notes

The solution assumes that adding a new setting is feasible and effective. However, without further information about the Claude Code architecture and configuration options, it is uncertain whether this solution will work as expected.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Add a custom setting to disable slash command tab completion, as this is a targeted solution that addresses the specific issue reported.
