Shell Completion

Fire ships rich tab-completion for zsh (with inline descriptions) and a complete -C compatible mode for bash.

Install completion scripts

Install both shells:

fire cli completion install

Install a single shell:

fire cli completion install zsh
fire cli completion install bash

The installer writes scripts to standard user locations and appends managed blocks to ~/.zshrc / ~/.bashrc.

How completion works

  • On tab, the shell invokes fire in completion mode.
  • Fire reads the merged config, resolves scopes (namespace/group), and emits candidates.
  • When a command has a description, zsh displays it alongside the value.
  • Bash uses the complete -C protocol, which only consumes the values.

Updating after config changes

Re-run fire cli completion install if you move the binary or want to refresh shell init files. Otherwise, completion picks up config changes automatically on the next invocation.
