I'm following https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/scripting/learn/shell/using-predictors?view=powershell-7.5 but I didn't see how to bind key for cycling items.

The default InlineView doesn't support cycling. ListView is needed, which you can switch to on-demand with F2 (by default) or set an absolute value using:
Set-PSReadLineOption -PredictionViewStyle ListView
To see bound and unbound key handlers:
Get-PSReadLineKeyHandler -Bound -Unbound
Built-in prediction functions you can bind to: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/psreadline/about/about_psreadline_functions#prediction-functions
Arrow keys are used by default to cycle through ListView predictions. Use Set-PSReadLineKeyHandler to bind chords to PreviousSuggestion/NextSuggestion if you want to use something in addition to arrow keys.

There's a feature request for implementing InlineView cycling here: https://github.com/PowerShell/PSReadLine/issues/3362

If you install this optional module, you get completions based on the context. (the non-history ones)
Import-Module CompletionPredictor
