I found it today on github, looks cool, but unfortunately it has no nushell support.

speaking of supported shells, here is a list:

  • bash
  • zsh
  • fish
  • pwsh
  • powershell

I’m trying to figure out how this gets monetized. It doesn’t look like it actually phones home. The only interesting dependency is Fig, which another commenter calls out. Since this basically just wraps Fig, I wonder if this is Microsoft’s first pass at getting into shells before they reimplement Fig themselves.

Note I didn’t look to see what kind of telemetry Fig collects. I skimmed the dep from this package but didn’t feel like chasing down the tree of Fig deps that get pulled into that one.
