Steps to Reproduce

Type something like select `jso and see when completions start.

System

  • mycli version: 1.53.1 (main branch)
  • OS/version: WSL2 Ubuntu 24.04 under Windows 11

Discussion

This may be expected behavior, but the reason was not immediately obvious.

Note this behavior might change or be suppressed by #1547 depending on the setting.
