Description
Hi!
I'm working on an autocomplete module now, but as I'd like it to be super snappy, I'd like my autocompleter to finish words while typing. I.e, if my options are ['feat','fix], and I write "fe", I want "feat" to snap into the prompt.

Research direction
Start with the autocomplete module and trace how completion options are presented while typing. Reproduce the example with options such as “feat” and “fix”, then determine how an accepted prefix should update the prompt. Done means typing “fe” inserts or previews “feat” without disrupting normal completion behavior.
