The tilix project IMHO using your work but do not name you as the author.

Please see the screenshot on their README.md.

New visitors to that project thinking that the powerline-shell prompt is produced by tilix. They install it and wonder why it is not their.

There is an issue about that problem. But the maintainers do not aggree to the arguments and are not willing to remove the screenshot nor naming you as the author of that prompt-style.

This is free software licensed under the MIT license, it is nowhere stated in the license or any other place among this entire source package that any credit of any kind needs to be given to the author. In fact, what is implied is that you can do whatever you want with this software, even sell it, and claim you made it for a profit, so long as you maintain the included LICENSE file with the package.
