AI Candy
July 31, 2026 ยท View on GitHub

AI Candy is a responsive Oh My Zsh theme for developers who move between macOS, Linux, containers, virtual machines, and remote hosts. It adapts to the terminal width while presenting Git state, system context, and optional coding tool integrations without blocking the prompt on network requests.
The theme supports macOS, Red Hat Enterprise Linux-compatible releases 9 and 10, and Ubuntu 22.04 and 24.04. It requires Oh My Zsh and Zsh 5.4.2 or newer.

Installation
Install the theme with one command:
sh -c 'installer=$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/SihaoLiu/ai-candy/refs/heads/main/install.sh) && [ -n "$installer" ] && exec sh -c "$installer" sh "$@"' sh
The installer requires an existing Oh My Zsh installation. Existing .zshrc
files are left unchanged; set the theme manually when prompted:
ZSH_THEME="ai-candy"
Start a new Zsh session or run source ~/.zshrc after installation. See the
installation guide for manual installation, installer
options, upgrade behavior, and uninstallation.
