Describe the bug / provide steps to reproduce it

I can no longer trigger the inline assistant with ctrl-enter. I can still trigger it with the icon:

, but the ctrl-enter hotkey no longer works. It doesn't work in either VISUAL or INSERT vim modes.

I'm not sure exactly when this started. I just noticed it today.

I have nothing in my ~/.config/zed/keymap.json, using all default keybindings.

My config, doesn't seem particularly relevant to the issue, but sharing anyway:

// Zed settings
//
// For information on how to configure Zed, see the Zed
// documentation: https://zed.dev/docs/configuring-zed
//
// To see all of Zed's default settings without changing your
// custom settings, run the `open default settings` command
// from the command palette or from `Zed` application menu.

I'm facing the same issue. The Inline assistant shortcut no longer works.

[sharjeel]

I'm having the same issue on MacOS. Nothing shows up in the ~/Library/Logs/Zed either.

[taras-mrtn]

The same issue in Zed 0.167.1

[Mauragkas]

the same issue in Zed dev 0.168.0

If you're encountering this issue, could you try manually doing assistant: inline assist from the command palette and report

• whether the assistant triggers successfully or not
• whether Ctrl + <enter symbol> (or <Command symbol> + <enter symbol>) shows up to the right of assistant: inline assist in the command palette search results before you run the action?

(And make sure you're signed in with an LLM provider configured.)

Note for triage: I haven't been able to reproduce this on Linux, using Zed v0.167.1 signed in with a non-staff account.

It seems the changes in PR #22126 (‘Use the same InlineAssist action between both assistant and assistant2’) might be related. The PR unified the InlineAssist action and modified the CommandPaletteFilter, which could potentially affect the visibility or functionality of assistant: inline assist. I’ve noticed that the assistant: inline assist command doesn’t even appear in the command palette, which suggests it might not be properly registered or exposed.

tried using the command palette and...

weird, it does not appear in there but I can still use the button as nated0g did above. I came across this recently (3-5 days ago). I was using the zed-git from AUR at first and noticed it there, then switched to the plain zed fixed it at first then i think I updated the system and here we are. now the only thing it does is creating a new line above the selected text

[dinkopehar]

Happens to me also, Fedora 41. When I updated few days ago to v0.167.1 on Flatpak, Inline assist doesn't work using shortcut Ctrl + Enter. I tried to remap to different shortcut, but it still doesn't work. However, using it in Editor and Terminal by clicking a button of Inline Assist works. Logs don't show anything

[joshgoebel]

Same issue, keybind does not work and it's not listed in the command palette - it's only accessible via the button at the top of the UI.

[cole-miller]

For affected users: can you see other assistant: actions in the command palette? And does cmd-?/ctr-? work to toggle the assistant panel?

[cidv0]

I went to look and "assistant: inline assist" is back and cmd+enter now works. I am still on version Zed 0.167.1 on MacOS. Any idea what happened?

Edit: I did have the other assistant commands in the palette before, only one missing was inline assist.

[cole-miller]

Two more questions for those affected---are you running Zed offline, i.e. not signed in? And which language model is configured for the inline assistant?

[cidv0]

It's appears the cmd+enter key bind only works while signed in. I am using gpt-4o.

[nated0g]

Two more questions for those affected---are you running Zed offline, i.e. not signed in? And which language model is configured for the inline assistant?

Yes, I was not signed in. Tried signing in and now it works again. It worked before without being signed in though.

I switch between gpt-4o and Claude 3.5 Sonnet

[joshgoebel]

Yes.

Yes. Logging in seems to resolve this.

And which language model is configured for the inline assistant?

Thanks everyone, we've merged #22715 to fix this and point releases for stable and preview should be available shortly.

Working for me now in 0.167.2 (while not signed in), thanks!
