completions

Generate shell completion scripts.

Usage

claudex completions <shell>

<shell> is one of: bash, zsh, fish, elvish, powershell.

Setup

zsh

# Add to ~/.zshrc
source <(claudex completions zsh)

Uses a custom completer (not clap's default) that:

• Separates subcommand candidates from flag candidates.
• Falls back to zsh's native _files for file-path flags (--output, -o, --follow) so tilde expansion works.

bash

# Add to ~/.bashrc
source <(claudex completions bash)

Requires bash-completion to be installed and sourced.

fish

# Test in the current shell
claudex completions fish | source

# Persist
claudex completions fish > ~/.config/fish/completions/claudex.fish

elvish

eval (claudex completions elvish | slurp)

PowerShell

claudex completions powershell | Out-String | Invoke-Expression

What gets completed

• Subcommand names at position 1.
• Flag names (long and short).
• Values for --color (auto, always, never).
• File paths for --output, -o, --follow (zsh only).

Notes

• Always current. The script is generated from Cli::command() at runtime, so it matches the binary exactly. Re-source after upgrading.
