Describe the bug / provide steps to reproduce it

When installing a fresh version of Zed Preview and enabling "supermaven"

{
  "features": {
    "inline_completion_provider": "supermaven"
  },
  "vim_mode": true,
  "ui_font_size": 15,
  "buffer_font_size": 14,
  "theme": {
    "mode": "system",
    "light": "One Light",
    "dark": "One Dark"
  }
}

The status stays on "Supermaven initializing" and it won't download the required binaries sm-agent binary.

My ~/.supermaven/config.json is also present and I'm on the paid plan:
{"api_key":"XXX","api_key_obtained_at":"XXX","link_id":"XXX","machine_id":"XXX"}

There is no Zed Log information about supermaven and why it might fail whatsoever.

Environment

Zed: v0.147.1 (Zed Preview)
OS: macOS 15.0.0
Memory: 16 GiB
Architecture: aarch64

If applicable, add mockups / screenshots to help explain present your vision of the feature

If applicable, attach your Zed.log file to this issue.

I was able to solve it deleting the folder ~/Library/Application Support/Zed, uninstalling Zed and reinstalling it.

It took some time to Zed to download the Sueprmaven binary, so I think it's a good idea to wait for a few minutes before trying. You can check the download in the ~/Library/Application Support/Zed\supermaven folder.

I'm on macOS Sonoma.

Did a similar thing on Debian Linux, and it worked.
I don't reinstall zed, I just deleted ~/.local/share/zed/supermaven
And then restart zed, and it will download ~/.local/share/zed/supermaven/sm-agent-26

Even the status message is working

[chrisvander]

Some recent update fixed it for me.

[monarcode]

any one got this working?

i already added

"features": { "inline_completion_provider": "supermaven" },

to my config, but nothing happened, i don't get any new icon or any initializing message

Please help

[90aca]

closing since it's working for me now.

[monarcode]

It's really not working for me

It's really not working for me

What OS are you using and did you delete the Supermaven folder? ~/Library/Application Support/Zed\supermaven

[bfulop]

On my side it works ONCE if I delete both ~/Library/Application Support/Zed/supermaven and ~/.supermaven folders.

After each restart of Zed however, the Supermaven plugin is again stuck on initializing and have delete again all the folders.

在 Debian Linux 上做了類似的事情，並且成功了。 我沒有重新安裝zed，我只是刪除了 ~/.local/share/zed/supermaven 然後重新啟動zed，就會下載了 ~/.local/share/zed/supermaven/sm-agent-26

甚至狀態訊息也能正常運作

I found I shoud add excutable permission to sm-agent-26 😮
chmod u+x ~/.local/share/zed/supermaven

[aretrace]

@90aca could you reopen, it does not work properly
only solution is @bfulop so far...

In my case, this issue was resolved with the latest update.　macOS Sequoia Developer Beta

[kualta]

none of the solutions in this thread has worked for me nixos 24.05, zed 0.155.2

I can get stuck in “Supermaven initializing” in a reproducible way:

1. Set up Supermaven and log in, so it's working normally.
2. Comment out this line in settings.json: //"inline_completion_provider": "supermaven".
3. Restart zed. Now, Supermaven is disabled.
4. Try to re-enable Supermaven by uncommenting the line from above.
5. Restart zed. Supermaven is now stuck in “Supermaven initializing”.

To get Supermaven working again:

1. Make sure settings.json has uncommented "inline_completion_provider": "supermaven".
2. Quit zed
3. Delete these files:

• ~/.supermaven/config.json
• ~/Library/Application Support/Zed/supermaven/sm-agent-26 (or similar filename, I presume the 26 is a version number that might change).

4. Start zed, and log in to Supermaven again.

@omegaatt36 's solution is the only thing that worked for me. I'm on Arch Linux. It appears the 'supermaven' folder isn't created with sufficient permissions for 'sm-agent-26' to get downloaded into it.

[glassworks-projects]

@quinncomendant 's solution works for one reboot, and then if I quit and restart Zed, I get stuck again.

MacOS Sequoia 15.1.1, Apple Silicon (M4 Pro), Zed 0.166.1

The problem that occurs on Macs is that the Supermaven configuration file is marked as “downloaded from the internet”, that means the config.json file is marked with the special attribute “com.apple.provenance”. You can check it with this command in the terminal:
xattr -l /Users/YOUR_USER/.supermaven/config.json

It is solved by removing the attribute from the terminal and restarting Zed:
xattr -d com.apple.provenance /Users/YOUR_USER/.supermaven/config.json

Closing zed and deleting:

~/.local/share/zed/supermaven/sm-agent-26 and ~/.supermaven/config.json worked for me in Arch.

➜  ~ xattr -l .supermaven/config.json
com.apple.provenance:
➜  ~ xattr -d com.apple.provenance .supermaven/config.json
➜  ~ xattr -l .supermaven/config.json
com.apple.provenance:

In my case looks like this key has no value and so deleting it does nothing. Also does not solve the issue for me.

Bingo!

In my case, I had to to this, then connect to a VPN (USA) and restart zed before it could download the sm-agent-26 binary

I think the issue here is related to IP somewhat. For some reason I cannot access supermaven website without connecting to a VPN in my country (Nigeria). Same thing with all vercel hosted sites. I am assumming this made supermaven not able to download the binary from supermaven's servers.
