Operating system

macOS 26.1.0 (25B78)

Expected behaviour

$ kiro-cli doctor

✔︎ Autocomplete is disabled.

Actual behaviour

$ kiro-cli doctor

✘ Autocomplete is enabled: Autocomplete disabled.

To fix run: kiro-cli settings autocomplete.disable false

✘ Doctor found errors. Please fix them and try again.

If you are not sure how to fix it, please open an issue with kiro-cli issue to let us know!

Steps to reproduce

Steps to reproduce:

1. disable auto completion.
2. Run kiro-cli doctor.

The issue:

1. The error message is confusing.
2. The double-negative config setting is not the most optimal choice.
3. Shell auto-completion is not a doctor issue. kiro-cli works just fine without it.

I had to turn off Kiro's shell auto-complete, too distracting. It doesn't work particularly good with bash. I tried zsh for a bit, but never managed to configure out its quirks, so bash it is.
