Tab key not usable in insert mode

[bogdan-the-great]

Using this config:

"huggingface/llm.nvim",
event = "VeryLazy",
opts = {
    api_token = "<key>",

    {
        tokens_to_clear = { "<|endoftext|>" },
        fim = {
            enabled = true,
            prefix = "<fim_prefix>",
            middle = "<fim_middle>",
            suffix = "<fim_suffix>",
        },
        model = "codellama/CodeLlama-34b-Instruct-hf",
        context_window = 8192,
        tokenizer = {
            repository = "codellama/CodeLlama-34b-Instruct-hf",
        }
    },

    enable_suggestions_on_startup = false,
    lsp = {
        bin_path = vim.api.nvim_call_function("stdpath", { "data" }) .. "/mason/bin/llm-ls",
    },
},

I am unable to use the Tab key in the insert mode when suggestions are on, but Tab works for accepting outputted code. Changing accepting and dismissing keys only made them not usable (in insert mode), and Tab working again.

You want Tab to be bound to multiple things? Are you sure that when you set accept/dismiss keymap they don't work?

I currently have them on Alt+i and it works fine

[bogdan-the-great]

I mean they work, but only for llm.nvim's actions and not for everything else, e.g. tab only accepts output from LLMs and doesn't insert tab chars.

This is how I define the keymaps:

  vim.keymap.set("i", accept_keymap, accept_suggestion, { expr = true })

  vim.keymap.set("n", accept_keymap, accept_suggestion, { expr = true })

  vim.keymap.set("i", dismiss_keymap, dismiss_suggestion, { expr = true })

  vim.keymap.set("n", dismiss_keymap, dismiss_suggestion, { expr = true })

in https://github.com/huggingface/llm.nvim/blob/main/lua/llm/keymaps.lua#L25

I'll check how to make it so that it doesn't override other functionalities, let me know if you know the lua to do that.

So after a little bit of testing I binded accept to Alt-j and dismiss to i (when you start typing it dismisses suggestion anyway). I now see that it should be binded to other key than tab because of completion and snippets. But fixing the issue for example with not working esc or enter would be useful.

I think this should work:

nvim-cmp has a "fallback" functionality. You can find their code here:

I use it like this to make it so that <Tab> can be both "select next completion" and a real <Tab>.
