Summary

Can't ninjutsu her from the command zone.

Oracle text (verified from client/public/card-data.json)

the command zone

When you planeswalk here, each player who controls their commander draws a card. Other players may put their commander from the command zone onto the battlefield.
If an ability of your commander would trigger during your turn, that ability triggers an additional time.
Whenever chaos ensues, the number of times each commander has been cast from the command zone becomes 0. (This resets commander tax.)

Verified Yuriko, the Tiger's Shadow's Oracle text ("Commander ninjutsu {U}{B} … Put this card onto the battlefield from your hand or the command zone tapped and attacking.") parses correctly to keyword CommanderNinjutsu, and the engine-side activation logic is solid: ninjutsu_family_activatable_sources (crates/engine/src/game/keywords.rs) explicitly scans state.command_zone for CommanderNinjutsu cards and offers GameAction::ActivateNinjutsu, and there's a passing regression test (test_3648_commander_ninjutsu_offered_from_command_zone in crates/engine/tests/integration/ninjutsu_cluster.rs) proving legal_actions() returns the action for a command-zone commander. The actual gap is in the frontend: client/src/components/zone/CommanderCardZone.tsx's CommanderCard component only scans legalActions for action.type === "CastSpell" (lines ~69-79) to decide canCast/click/drag wiring — it never checks for ActivateNinjutsu, unlike hand-zone cards which route through the generic collectObjectActions + pending-ability-choice UI (see PlayerHand.tsx). So even though the engine legally offers commander ninjutsu from the command zone, there is no click/drag affordance anywhere in the command-zone card component to trigger it. This is a frontend UI-wiring gap, not an engine defect.
