Theme Browser

Preview installed themes without changing your current prompt:

omz theme browse
omz theme browse agn
omz theme preview agnoster

The browser filters theme names as you type and renders the highlighted theme using the current directory, including synchronous Git information.

Controls

Key	Action
Up / Down, Ctrl-P / Ctrl-N	Previous / next theme
Page Up / Page Down	Move one page
Printable text	Filter names
Backspace	Delete the last filter character
Ctrl-U	Clear the filter
Enter	Open selection actions
Esc / Ctrl-C	Cancel without applying or saving
`u` in selection actions	Use the theme for this session
`s` in selection actions	Save as default and reload the shell
`b` or Enter in selection actions	Return to browsing

Using a theme changes the current session. It does not remove hooks or widgets installed by the previous theme. Saving updates ZSH_THEME in .zshrc and reloads the shell.

Limitations

Previews run in a fresh shell, so plugin-dependent and interactive themes may be incomplete.
Right prompts are labeled and shown separately rather than positioned by ZLE.
The browser requires an interactive terminal with alternate-screen support.
Theme code is isolated from your active shell, but it is not sandboxed. Preview only trusted themes.

Local Testing

From this checkout, launch a disposable interactive shell:

env ZSH="$PWD" zsh -dfi
source "$ZSH/lib/cli.zsh"
omz theme preview robbyrussell
omz theme browse

Run the regression suites with:

zsh -df tools/theme-browser/tests/preview_test.zsh
zsh -df tools/theme-browser/tests/browser_test.zsh
