@ardaguclu This is pretty cool! Looking at the KEP, I didn't see any mention of shell completion support. As long as the "sub plugins" are kept under the "create" command, there isn't much need for shell completion support. However, if this is meant to be generalized, it may be useful to support shell completion for such sub-plugins as well.

Here is the section of the plugin KEP describing how shell completion is supported: https://github.com/kubernetes/enhancements/tree/master/keps/sig-cli/2379-kubectl-plugins#shell-completion-support And here is the PR that add such support https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/105867
