Before installing the shell completions from Pkl 0.29, I was able to type pkl eval <Tab> and my shell would default to suggesting the files in my current working directory.

After installing the shell completions, I can type pkl <Tab> and get completions for the commands, but pkl eval <Tab> instead gives me nothing but a shell bell, indicating no completion options.

IME having file completions available would be very useful, and losing them is not worth the trade for command completions.

Version: 0.29 (via brew)

The fish completions are working for me. Seems like an issue with the bash/zsh completions.
