Unclear The finding does not say what the ignoredNameEntry flag changes for the user.
What
In the plugin menu opened by /plugin, the list of actions on a plugin's detail view is now a standard selection list. It starts with an item already focused and cannot be used while an action is still running.
Names are now passed through a sanitizer, which cleans text before it is shown, in these labels:
flagged-plugin labels, such as "Removed from marketplace · reason:"
claude.ai connector labels
marketplace error labels
Errors for installed marketplaces now also carry an ignoredNameEntry flag.
Why
The detail menu behaves like other lists in Claude Code and cannot be triggered twice while busy, and odd characters in a name are no longer shown as-is.
