I noticed this has been mentioned in a few issues.

The completions provided by brew or the curl installer are not real zsh completions. They hand off to Python functions that return suggestions dynamically, which makes them feel slow. They also call compinit internally, which leads to eventual double initialization warnings with zimfw no matter where they are sourced.

To solve this, I wrote a script that crawls the gcloud CLI, extracts all commands, and generates a proper zsh completion script.

The repository updates weekly to stay current with new gcloud CLI versions. A zim-gcloud module repository also updates weekly and fetches the latest _gcloud completions if there are changes.

Sharing here in case others want to use it, or if Eric would like to add it to the modules page.

• zmodule pXius/zim-gcloud
• crawling and conversion script

Cheers
