01Run it

Replace the <placeholders> with your own values, or use the builder below.

p202 completion bash

02What you get

Pick the shape you need. People get a table. Add --json, --csv or --ndjson for scripts, or -q for ids only. An AI agent gets compact JSON without asking. All output formats

03Build your command

Pick values and the command line writes itself, quoted and ready to paste.

05How it works

Generate the autocompletion script for the bash shell.

This script depends on the 'bash-completion' package. If it is not installed already, you can install it via your OS's package manager.

To load completions in your current shell session:

source <(p202 completion bash)

To load completions for every new session, execute once:

#### Linux:

p202 completion bash > /etc/bash_completion.d/p202

#### macOS:

p202 completion bash > $(brew --prefix)/etc/bash_completion.d/p202

You will need to start a new shell for this setup to take effect.

06For agents

Running this from an agent

  • Read the same facts as JSON: p202 commands completion bash --json.
  • With AI_AGENT, CLAUDECODE or another agent variable set, output is compact JSON and errors arrive on stderr as a JSON envelope with a hint.
  • Exit codes: 0 ok, 1 bad input, 2 auth, 3 network, 4 server error, 5 partial failure.
p202 commands completion bash --json
