fix(cli): restore shell completion script generation - #515
Conversation
`moss completions bash|zsh` always failed with "Shell completion is unavailable in this Typer installation" and exited 1, even on a healthy install. Two separate defects: 1. The import fallback tried `typer.main.get_completion_script` and then `typer._completion_shared.get_completion_script`. Neither resolves on current Typer, but `typer.completion.get_completion_script` does, with an identical `(prog_name, complete_var, shell)` signature. It was never attempted. 2. Even when the inner import succeeded, control fell through to an unconditional `print_error(...)` / `raise typer.Exit(1)`, so the fallback path could never succeed regardless of the import. Adds `typer.completion` to the chain and nests the error handling so the failure message is raised only when every import path is exhausted. The message is lifted to a module constant to avoid duplicating it. This makes the two existing tests in tests/test_completions.py pass (28 passed / 2 failed -> 30 passed). black, isort and mypy are clean; the file has one fewer flake8 E501 than before.

📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughThe completion command now checks three Typer module locations for ChangesShell completion fallback
Priority: ⬇️ Low Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to Completion generation now supports additional Typer locations, but runtime failures inside a Typer import may be hidden and produce a fallback result instead of the underlying error. Narrowing the handlers to import errors would make failures diagnosable. 🚥 Pre-merge checks | ✅ 5✅ Passed checks (5 passed)
✨ Finishing Touches🧪 Generate unit tests (beta)
✨ Simplify code

🟢 Approval recommended
The updated nested fallback logic correctly resolves get_completion_script on modern Typer and only exits with an error when all completion APIs are unavailable.
Pull request overview
This PR fixes moss completions bash|zsh in the Moss CLI by restoring shell completion script generation across current Typer versions via a corrected import fallback chain and proper error handling.
Changes:
- Adds
typer.completion.get_completion_scriptas the primary fallback whentyper.main.get_completion_scriptis unavailable. - Fixes the previous exception-flow fall-through so an error is only emitted after all import paths are exhausted.
- Deduplicates the failure message into a module-level constant.

Catch only import errors in all fallback handlers.
Each from typer... statement can execute module initialization. A TypeError or RuntimeError can be caught and replaced by a private fallback or _UNAVAILABLE. Use except ImportError for all three import attempts.

Problem
moss completions bashandmoss completions zshalways fail on a healthy install:The two existing tests in
tests/test_completions.pyfail onmainfor this reason (28 passed, 2 failed).Root cause
Two separate defects in
packages/moss-cli/src/moss_cli/commands/completions.py:1. The working import path was never tried. The fallback chain attempts
typer.main.get_completion_script, thentyper._completion_shared.get_completion_script. Neither resolves on current Typer — buttyper.completion.get_completion_scriptdoes, with an identical signature:2. The fallback could not succeed even if the import worked. After the inner
except, control fell through to an unconditionalprint_error(...)/raise typer.Exit(1), so a successfultyper._completion_sharedimport would still have errored out.Fix

#404 includes a shell-completion fix among other changes. This PR is a targeted alternative to just that portion — one file, +10/−12, no lockfile churn — since #404 currently reports conflicts. Happy to close this if #404 lands first.
