Zsh history search with flex matching and mouse—fzf already does this better.

Strengths
  • Emacs-style flex matching is more intelligent than linear regex search.
  • Mouse support is a genuine UX improvement for terminal navigation in 2025.
Weaknesses
  • Fuzzy history search is solved: fzf, fzf-history, atuin already dominate this niche.
  • No evidence of meaningfully better performance or UX than established tools.
Target Audience

Zsh users, terminal power users, developers on macOS/Linux
