As you type a command in any terminal tab, Rumus suggests a continuation inline. Hit → or Tab to accept it; ignore it and just keep typing if it isn’t what you wanted. It runs locally, it’s on by default, and it doesn’t get in your way.Documentation Index

What it suggests
The suggestion engine pulls from a few sources, ranked by recency and relevance:- Your shell history — commands you’ve run before in the current shell, weighted by how recently you used them.
- Filesystem context — file and directory names in your current working directory.
- Common command structure — sensible flag completions for tools the suggester recognizes.
Accept, partial-accept, or ignore
- Accept the whole suggestion — press
→orTab. - Accept word-by-word — some platforms support a partial-accept gesture (Alt + →); check your binding in Settings → Keyboard.
- Ignore it — keep typing. The suggestion updates as you go; if you type past it, it disappears.
Turn it off (or tune it)
If inline suggestions clash with your muscle memory, turn them off: Settings → AI → Conversation → Smart Autocomplete — toggle it. The same section has knobs for fine-tuning suggestion frequency and aggressiveness, when applicable to your shell setup.How autocomplete differs from the chat agent
These are two distinct features:| Feature | What it does | How it works |
|---|---|---|
| Smart autocomplete | Suggests the next characters of your current command | Local, fast, no model call |
| AI agent | Holds a conversation, runs tools, plans multi-step work | Model call to a provider |
In remote (SSH) tabs
Autocomplete works the same way in remote tabs — it learns from the remote shell’s history (when shell integration is enabled, so Rumus can read it back). On a fresh SSH connection with no history yet, suggestions default to local-context fallbacks until you’ve typed a few commands.In broadcast mode
The multi-terminal broadcast input bar shows suggestions too. Useful when fanning a familiar command across many hosts — type a couple of characters, accept, send.Privacy
All autocomplete data — your shell history, the directory contents, the suggestions themselves — stays on your machine. Nothing is sent to a server or model.Next steps
