About

runex is a cross-shell abbreviation engine that expands short tokens into full commands in real-time.

- Cross-shell support (bash / zsh / pwsh / cmd / nushell)

- Real-time expansion (customizable trigger key)

- Single config file shared across shells

- Conditional rules (when_command_exists) — recognizes shell cmdlets, aliases, and user-defined functions, not just PATH binaries

- Fast and lightweight (Rust core)

Security

No known CVEs for runex.

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