Expected

Jumping directories with z should not produce errors

zoxide works fine on v0.100.0, this appears to be a config issue.

On macOS, the issue is that the zoxide binary is not in your $PATH - Nushell cannot find any binary named zoxide, and therefore it is not getting initialized.

On Linux, I'm guessing you've pointed z to cd, and that's what's causing the issue? The way to do that is to change your initialization line to zoxide init nushell --cmd=cd | ...etc.

On macOS, the issue is that the zoxide binary is not in your $PATH - Nushell cannot find any binary named zoxide, and therefore it is not getting initialized.

For macOS, zoxide is installing via nix + home-manager.
This is the config in my zoxide.nix file:

{
  programs.zoxide = {
    enable = true;
    enableZshIntegration = true;
    enableNushellIntegration = true;
  };
}

I'm not having issues with other applications managed by nix/home-manager.
What are some further troubleshooting steps I can take?
PS: I'm on unstable channel

You were right about the alias, that corrected the issue. Thanks a lot!

You must be running a command at some point to add the Nix home directory to your $PATH. Ensure that the zoxide command in your .env.nu file is run after that.

Closing. Nushell doesn't bring over most of the PATH entries, after manually adding back everything - worked again like a charm. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction @ajeetdsouza
