Radius Shell Completion: Faster, Smarter CLI Commands
The cursor blinks. Your hands hover. You type three letters, hit Tab, and the shell knows exactly what you want.
Radius shell completion turns complex commands into fast, precise actions. It reduces errors, speeds up workflows, and keeps your focus on building instead of remembering flags. With Radius CLI, shell completion is not an extra—it’s part of the core experience.
Once enabled, Radius shell completion in Bash, Zsh, or Fish gives you instant suggestions for every command, subcommand, and argument. You type less. You think less about syntax. You never dig through --help in the middle of a deployment.
Autocompletion is context-aware. It understands the current state of your environment. If a command needs a project name, it lists your available projects. If it requires a service, it pulls the real ones from Radius—not placeholders. You get accurate results every time.
Enabling Radius shell completion is straightforward:
- Install or update the Radius CLI.
- Run
radius completion [shell]to generate the script for Bash, Zsh, or Fish. - Source the script in your shell config.
- Restart your shell, and start typing.
The performance benefit is immediate. Your CLI transforms into an interactive guide. Every command feels predictable and tight. Completion reduces friction for both exploration and production runs.
This is more than convenience. For teams, Radius shell completion standardizes workflows, reduces onboarding time, and lowers the risk of critical mistakes. For individuals, it means moving faster with complete confidence in the commands you run.
