You Should Use

Zsh plugin that reminds you to use your existing aliases

Pluginfreeglobal

A simple zsh plugin that watches typed commands and reminds when a shorter existing alias applies, including detection of global and git aliases. It helps zsh users who maintain personal alias sets avoid typing full commands by offering configurable message placement, an optional mode that blocks the raw command, and per-alias usage statistics.
