About

McFly replaces your default Ctrl-R shell history search with an intelligent search engine that takes into account your working directory and the context of recently executed commands. McFly's suggestions are prioritized in real time with a small neural network.

TL;DR: an upgraded Ctrl-R where history results make sense for what you're working on right now.

Security

No known CVEs for McFly.

Coverage is best-effort and depends on a winget package mapping to an NVD CPE entry. Absence here is not a guarantee of safety.
