What
When you type a slash command name that Claude Code doesn't recognize, it now also checks whether the name matches the short suffix (after the colon) of a plugin-provided command, like typing :name for a command whose full name is plugin:name. If exactly one plugin command matches that suffix, Claude Code offers it as a suggestion.
Why
This makes plugin commands easier to invoke without typing their full namespaced name, as long as the short form is unambiguous.
