The /rc (alias for /remote-control) slash command stopped working after updating to v2.1.100. It was working fine in v2.1.98.

Error Message

  • Or when run via CLI (claude /rc), returns an error: --channels entries must be tagged: C:/Program Files/Git/rc

Root Cause

The /rc (alias for /remote-control) slash command stopped working after updating to v2.1.100. It was working fine in v2.1.98.

Fix Action

Workaround

Downgraded to 2.1.98 where /rc works. Alternatively, claude --remote-control at startup still works in 2.1.100, but in-session /rc does not.

Description

The /rc (alias for /remote-control) slash command stopped working after updating to v2.1.100. It was working fine in v2.1.98.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Update to @anthropic-ai/[email protected]
  2. Start a Claude Code session: claude
  3. Type /rc in the session

Expected behavior

Remote Control mode activates within the running session (as it did in v2.1.98 and earlier).

Actual behavior

/rc is not recognized as a slash command. When typed, it either:

  • Gets intercepted by autocomplete and opens the first matching skill
  • Or when run via CLI (claude /rc), returns an error: --channels entries must be tagged: C:/Program Files/Git/rc

Environment

  • OS: Windows 11 Pro 10.0.26200
  • Shell: Git Bash
  • Working version: 2.1.98
  • Broken version: 2.1.100
  • Auth: OAuth (claude.ai login)

Workaround

Downgraded to 2.1.98 where /rc works. Alternatively, claude --remote-control at startup still works in 2.1.100, but in-session /rc does not.

extent analysis

TL;DR

The issue with the /rc slash command not working after updating to v2.1.100 can likely be mitigated by using the claude --remote-control command at startup instead.

Guidance

  • Verify that the issue is specific to the /rc command by trying other slash commands in the session to see if they work as expected.
  • Check the release notes or changelog for v2.1.100 to see if there are any mentions of changes to slash command handling or remote control functionality.
  • Consider filing a bug report with the developers of @anthropic-ai/claude-code to get an official fix for the /rc command issue.
  • If the workaround of using claude --remote-control at startup is not sufficient, try exploring other command-line options or configuration settings that may enable remote control mode.

Example

No code snippet is provided as the issue seems to be related to a specific command or configuration rather than a code-level problem.

Notes

The provided workaround of downgrading to v2.1.98 or using claude --remote-control at startup may not be ideal for all users, and an official fix from the developers would be preferable.

Recommendation

Apply the workaround of using claude --remote-control at startup, as it provides an alternative way to enable remote control mode, even if the /rc command is not working.
