## The Hook

fzf is the fuzzy finder when shell history, files, and git refs should be filterable without leaving the keyboard.

## What's Good

MIT. Blazing interactive filter for any list piped in. Shell keybindings, vim integration, preview windows. Universal CLI building block.

## The Catch

Fuzzy finder only - not a file manager, not ripgrep itself (pairs with it), not a shell. You wire the pipes. Not Atuin shell history sync.

## Verdict

MIT fuzzy finder. Free forever; you compose the workflows.
