zellij
This plugin provides aliases, functions, and completions for zellij,
the terminal workspace (multiplexer). To use it, add zellij to the plugins array in your
zshrc file.
plugins=(... zellij)
Dynamic prefix
The default alias prefix is zj. To use the shorter z prefix instead, set the following
variable before oh-my-zsh is sourced:
ZSH_ZELLIJ_PREFIX_Z=true
Note: If
zis already defined as an alias, function, or command by another plugin (e.g., zoxide), thezjprefix is used for the mainzellijalias even whenZSH_ZELLIJ_PREFIX_Zis set.

Completions
This plugin caches the zellij completion script. On first load the cache is generated
synchronously; subsequent updates (when the zellij binary is newer than the cache) happen in
the background.
Session-aware completions are provided for attach, delete-session, and kill-session
functions — only relevant sessions (all, running, or exited) are offered.
