Quick Start

Verify​

The daemon starts automatically on first use — no setup required.

# Query your current git branch (run from inside a git repo)
comb get git.branch . -f text

# Query battery
comb get battery.percent -f text

# Check daemon status
comb status

That's it. The daemon started in the background when you ran that first query.

Try it in your prompt​

# Add to ~/.zshrc
precmd() {
    PS1="%F{blue}$(comb get git.branch . -f text 2>/dev/null)%f %# "
}

Source your .zshrc and open a few more shells. Then run comb status — you'll see the cache entry being shared across all shells, with a single filesystem watcher covering all of them.
