@juwens I've encountered the same problem, but the latest "main" version does seem to have fixed this.

Could you try to test that version?

# Clone
git clone https://github.com/dotnet/command-line-api.git

# Build
dotnet pack -c release command-line-api/src/System.CommandLine.Suggest/dotnet-suggest.csproj

# Install
dotnet tool install -g --source command-line-api/artifacts/packages/release/Shipping --prerelease dotnet-suggest

# Test
dotnet-suggest re[ENTER]
dotnet-suggest register

@flyingpie thx for the instructions. Sadly i struggle to compile the project

> dotnet pack -c release src/System.CommandLine.Suggest/dotnet-suggest.csproj

    Update global.json to include SDK settings (#2714)

    The `tools` section is proprietary and only used by arcade.

    The `sdk` section is used by dotnet to ensure this SDK version is used, and also what the publicly available AzDo build tasks use when installing dotnet.

@juwens With release 2.0, the issue has been fixed for me. Can you check that?

Tab completion works fine now.

Any permutation of "dotnet-suggest get ..." still returns nothing though. AFAIK it should.

i tried

dotnet-suggest get --executable dotnet-suggest
dotnet-suggest get --executable dotnet-suggest -p 1
dotnet-suggest get --executable dotnet-suggest re
dotnet-suggest get --executable dotnet-suggest -- re
dotnet-suggest get --executable dotnet-suggest -p 2 -- re
