I’ve used iTerm2 as my terminal of alternative, and have for a few years.
I used to make use of Fig to supply superior autocomplete for language-specific features, parameters, folder enlargement, and many others., however Fig was retired in 2023 when it was purchased by Amazon to be a part of their Q Cli software. Amazon Q CLI, in flip, was rebranded/remade into Kiro a few years in the past, and I’ve been utilizing that since, although it’s loads much less secure than Fig was, and likewise fairly an enormous app that’s full overkill for this one, comparatively easy characteristic.
Right here is an instance of Kiro’s autocomplete for a Laravel artisan name, displaying the doable parameters in a dropdown-style structure with parameter descriptions on the backside:
Nevertheless, Kiro is primarily an agentic AI coding helper, and I’ve completely little interest in that by any means. I are not looking for AI anyplace close to any of my coding or terminal work, so I’ve all the time disabled the AI performance fully.
Lately, Kiro introduced that as of October 2026, it will likely be focusing fully on the agentic AI options, and autocomplete shall be faraway from the app. In the meanwhile, I’ve subsequently disabled updates to stay with the present model, however that’s not a superb long-term resolution (updates typically are good).
Which means I’m now in search of an alternate option to obtain what Fig had already perfected earlier than Amazon enshittified it and gives iTerm2 autocomplete (ideally in an identical dropdown-style structure) for no less than:
- script names
- operate names
- operate parameters
- folder and file names
Googling this has been surprisingly troublesome. I get tons of recommendations for different terminal apps (which I don’t want) or AI-based code helpers (which I positively don’t need), however nothing in any respect on code autocompletion.
Are there any up-to-date apps on the market that do what Fig did so nicely?
