Two changes affect how they behave in the prompt:\n\n- `\/btw`, which asks a side question about the current session without adding it to the conversation, is now marked `keepsScrollPosition`. Asking a side question should not move your place in the main conversation.\n\n- Commands that open a dialog and carry `keepsScrollPosition` no longer jump the view back to the bottom when you submit them.\n\n- Argument completions, the suggestions shown for what to type after a command name, no longer make typing wait. If they are slow to arrive, out-of-date suggestions are cleared and the new ones appear once ready. Before, Claude Code waited for the suggestions directly.\n\n**Why**\n\nThe prompt should feel more responsive while you type a command. You can also ask a quick side question without losing your place in a long conversation.\n\n- Area: Slash Commands\n- Names: `\/btw`\n- Tier: You'll notice\n- Useful: 2\/5\n- Signal: 1\/5\n- Scope: individual\n- Heads-up: no"}
