The colors for the tab completion are determined by the shell. Which shell are you using?

zsh 5.7.1

[avdv]

zsh probably respects LS_COLORS, but can be configured to use any other coloring whatsoever.

colorls does not respect LS_COLORS. You could configure it (to some extent) to match the colors that zsh uses, but you'd still have to duplicate the settings.

If you want, you could also try https://github.com/avdv/scalals which does use the LS_COLORS, but is still a bit rough around the edges...

Is there a quick way to get all the colors colorls is currently using?

nvm ... found them in the .yaml
