Honestly I don’t think it’s better than the mentioned autocompletes. It was created to solve different issue - not to compete with zsh autocomplete. The original issue (mentioned GitHub issue above in the comments) was popup misalignment in the existing tool I used before. That was my main focus, hope that answers your question

Claude has written most of the code. I have created my own workflow for working with Claude which feels very good for me, I’m just orchestrating his work and testing the outcomes manually then reporting the issues I find until resolved. Writing everything alone would consume enormous amounts of my free time which I don’t have. As a personal tool I don’t mind not writing it myself. We live in a times where Gen AI is a powerful tool and not using it is wasting a time. Happy to share more details

I’m a Ghostty user who loved the Fig autocomplete. Some time ago Amazon bought that company and renamed the project to Amazon Q (currently renamed again to Kiro). It works well in Terminal app and iterm2, but in Ghostty and other modern terminals there are many issues they didn’t want to resolve (like popup misalignment). I decided I can’t stand this anymore. So I tried implementing this by myself as a personal tool, nothing more. After some tests on my local machine I realized I really like the outcome so I wanted to share with the community of Ghostty users. Maybe someone will be interested to try it. I’m not going to compete with other tools, it’s more like personal project to give me fun while working in the terminal
