If you have two commanders with the partner ability in the command zone, Command Beacon's effect puts one of your choice into your hand, not both.

If your commander isn't in the command zone (or you don't have a commander) as the last ability resolves, nothing happens.

2020-11-10wotc

If you cast a commander from your hand, the commander tax doesn't apply. Additionally, that casting won't add to commander tax if you later cast the commander from the command zone.
