kush completion generates a shell-completion script so context names complete on TAB. Install it once and you stop typing (or misremembering) full context names.

kush completion bash
kush completion zsh
kush completion fish

This is a standard cobra completion script, generated for your shell and loaded the usual way:

bash

Install completion (bash)

echo 'source <(kush completion bash)' >> ~/.bashrc
source ~/.bashrc

zsh

Install completion (zsh)

echo 'source <(kush completion zsh)' >> ~/.zshrc
source ~/.zshrc

fish

Install completion (fish)

kush completion fish > ~/.config/fish/completions/kush.fish

Once it's loaded, context names complete wherever kush expects one:

Tab-complete a context

$ kush ctx [TAB]
dev  prod  staging

$ kush [TAB]
dev  prod  staging

$ kush exec [TAB]
dev  prod  staging

kush ns stays free-text; completing namespaces would mean kush making a call to the cluster's API, and kush never does that.

To show the active context in your prompt rather than complete it, see Show your context in the prompt.
