Hi - what do you get when you run "type windsurf" in windsurf terminal and in apple terminal?

[imbloch]

I have the same problem with VS Code. Wheh I do "type code", I get:

/opt/homebrew/bin/code

VS Code having been installed via homebrew.

[igorkofman]

I have a theory. Any chance in Applications, the VSCode package is called something other than "Visual Studio Code.app"

ls /Applications

[imbloch]

Checked that. It seems to be correctly named "Visual Studio Code.app"

[t-negishi-iid]

$ type windsurf windsurf is /Users/t-negishi/.codeium/windsurf/bin/windsurf

$ type cursor cursor is /usr/local/bin/cursor

$ type code code is /opt/homebrew/bin/code

$ ls /Applications/ | grep Windsurf Windsurf.app

$ ls /Applications/ | grep Cursor Cursor.app

$ ls /Applications/ | grep Code Visual Studio Code.app

---

In Windsurf terminal

$ claude

/status

⚠ Error installing Windsurf extension: 1: ENOENT Please restart your IDE and try again.

I can't install Claude code in any IDE, including Windsurf, Cursor, or VS Code.

Good news is that we finally have a repro. Should have a fix out early next week. In the meantime folks can install the extension directly from here: @.***/claude-code?activeTab=code

I was able to install with npm and run "claude" and configure in basic terminal. I am trying to get the full panel window to launch, I guess that is what /ide command is for. I am getting this error, when I try to run /ide.

Other than that, it appears to be running, albeit in below terminal. I am using windsurf.

I experienced a similar issue in VS Code on my Mac.
