What
The command picker now shows "Show session cost and plan usage" for /cost instead of its longer description. The picker prefers the short form whenever one is set and non-empty.
Details
/costitself is still subject to its existing availability check, so this only changes the wording where the command already appears.
Evidence
menuDescription: "Show session cost and plan usage"
Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
Names in the bundle/cost
The entry above is what we published on the day. These lines were added later, as Anthropic's own pages caught up, and they sit beside the original rather than replacing it.
Added since
A small documentation edit on Speed up responses with fast mode touched a line naming /cost after this was published.
* **Usage credits turned on for subscription plans**: on a Pro, Max, Team, or Enterprise plan, your account must have [usage credits](/docs/en/costs#add-usage-credits-to-your-subscription) turned on, which allows billing beyond your plan's…fast-mode see the edit
Confirmed since
Anthropic's documentation has since written up /cost, on Claude Code changelog.
* Added to the Claude apps gateway: with `pricing:` set in `gateway.yaml`, signed-in Claude Code clients receive the same rates through managed settings, so `/cost` and telemetry match the spend meterchangelog see the edit
