Describe the bug

The avante plugin lists keybindings for accepting diffs and moving among diffs.

When using the avante community plugin, those keybindings do not seem available. The ones under <leader>A are there, but the other ones are not.

They look like they were removed in this commit.

https://github.com/AstroNvim/astrocommunity/commit/f401d9b0b5a4e019c5d32f3d4932136a4ca30505

Steps to Reproduce

• Load the avante community plugin and open a file that brings up Avante bindings
• <leader>A bindings work, but the other ones seem absent.

Expected behavior

I expect the key bindings to work as described or similarly in the avante documentation.

Minimal configuration

-- save as repro.lua
-- run with nvim -u repro.lua
-- DO NOT change the paths
local root = vim.fn.fnamemodify("./.repro", ":p")

-- set stdpaths to use .repro
for _, name in ipairs({ "config", "data", "state", "runtime", "cache" }) do
  vim.env[("XDG_%s_HOME"):format(name:upper())] = root .. "/" .. name
end

-- bootstrap lazy
local lazypath = root .. "/plugins/lazy.nvim"
if not vim.loop.fs_stat(lazypath) then
  -- stylua: ignore
  vim.fn.system({ "git", "clone", "--filter=blob:none", "https://github.com/folke/lazy.nvim.git", "--branch=stable", lazypath })
end
vim.opt.rtp:prepend(vim.env.LAZY or lazypath)

-- install plugins
local plugins = {
  { "AstroNvim/AstroNvim", import = "astronvim.plugins" },
  { "AstroNvim/astrocommunity" },
  { import = "astrocommunity.pack.lua" },
  { import = "astrocommunity.completion.copilot-lua" },
  {import = "astrocommunity.completion.avante-nvim" },


  -- add any other plugins/customizations here
}
require("lazy").setup(plugins, {
  root = root .. "/plugins",
})

-- add anything else here (autocommands, vim.filetype, etc.)

Avante sets up keybindings itself in its options. The plugin by default is loaded when a file is open. This could be changed to just load the plugin on start-up or something.

[robtandy]

I observe that the plugin does get loaded upon file open, but the keybindings other than <leaderA> ones do not seem available.

[Uzaaft]

The keybindings for accepting diffs arent underneath <Leader>A, they are co,ca, etc. And they appear when you cursor is inside a diff. Like this(I dont have the mappings defined in my config):

[robtandy]

Ok. I am seeing this work as expected when I use claude but not when my model is copilot. I had not tried claude previously

In that case when I ask it to make a change and it shows me the suggested change. The bindings are not present.

[robtandy]

If I select the copilot and restart nvim and ask avante for a change, i do not get the bindings that let me add the change.

If I select claude and restart nvim and ask avante for a change, the bindings work.

[Yorizel]

Did you setup the copilot provider correctly?

[robtandy]

Yes, copilot works fine on its own and I was using it with chat and autocomplete before trying avante.

[Yorizel]

Can you provide me with your current avante.lua file?

[robtandy]

I'm using the community pack with no edits. my community file is

-- if true then return {} end -- WARN: REMOVE THIS LINE TO ACTIVATE THIS FILE

-- AstroCommunity: import any community modules here
-- We import this file in `lazy_setup.lua` before the `plugins/` folder.
-- This guarantees that the specs are processed before any user plugins.

---@type LazySpec
return {
  "AstroNvim/astrocommunity",
  { import = "astrocommunity.pack.lua" },
  { import = "astrocommunity.pack.rust" },
  { import = "astrocommunity.pack.python" },
  { import = "astrocommunity.pack.proto" },
  { import = "astrocommunity.pack.bash" },
  { import = "astrocommunity.pack.docker" },
  { import = "astrocommunity.pack.go" },
  { import = "astrocommunity.pack.json" },
  --{ import = "astrocommunity.completion.copilot-vim-cmp" },
  --{ import = "astrocommunity.completion.copilot-lua" },
  { import = "astrocommunity.completion.avante-nvim" },
  { import = "astrocommunity.markdown-and-latex.render-markdown-nvim" },

  -- import/override with your plugins folder
}

[Yorizel]

You shouldnt comment the copilot.lua fron the community file

[robtandy]

Oh sorry, when i have that uncommented, is what i mean. I had it commented out when i posted it to use claude, which works for me.

I am using { import = "astrocommunity.completion.copilot-lua" }

[Yorizel]

You can left it uncommented, to switch providers just use the "A?" keybind, but for more control i would recommend you to just copy the init.lua from the community repo and add custom vendors on the copilot spec
