How to create executable binary files with tab autocompletion?
(I'm wondering how to create Lean cli apps with autocompletion)

If by autocompletion you are referrring to stuff like getting the ls
options when typing ls -<TAB>
that's the job of your shell and has to be set up in a shell dependent way for all programs. If you are talking about autocompletion in for example a REPL like program, that would be handled by readline stuff.

I'll try to explain with an example. Suppose I want lake
to autocomplete "build" for me when I type lake b<TAB>
. How does that wiring work?
