Secretive Agent not working
I installed the App some time ago, and stopped using it, for some reasons. Since that I've changed terminals, reinstalled git and switched browsers several times.
After going to Help and Setup Secretive, the first screen of the modal does nothing, clicking install just gets you to the next step. I think I remember having to agree to some permissions, and install the agent itself.
I followed the uninstall and install steps from the FAQ several times. Reboot, all I could think of and it hasn't been of much help.
The Agent doesn't seem to be working, I've checked everything I can think of and I can't find what's wrong. I'm running MacOS Monterey 12.4.
Running the following commands yield the outputs below.

Any help would be appreciated, thanks! 🙏
I think I remember having to agree to some permissions, and install the agent itself
Shouldn't have needed to (short of maybe macOS requesting your password when you moved to /Applications.
Looks like "containers" is misspelled here /Users/xxxxx/Library/Contaiers/com.maxgoedjen.Secretive.SecretAgent/Data - not sure if it's just the post that's wrong or your config. Recommend ls'ing the parent directory to see if it's valid.
Can you share what shell you're using? There's different instructions per shell in the setup workflow.
I was using Secretive successfully until yesterday. Today, I updated to macOS 12.5, and it's not working. Don't know if it's related or not.
I'll add to this issue, but if you prefer I can file a separate issue

I'm running zsh, but I added the SSH_AUTH_SOCK definition to ~/.zshenv instead of ~/.zshrc to keep my complex dotfiles more organized.
Thanks!
I also updated to 12.5 last night and now Secretive isn't working. :(
edit I did kill -HUP <pid> where <pid> is the process ID of the agent, and now things are working again, at least for now.
Did anyone fix this? Using SSH Config Editor Pro and having same issues.
I didn't change anything, except for a reboot, and it's working fine again
Experiencing this here too, installed latest macOS update (12.5.1). Post startup, Secretive wasn't loading it's keys. Noting @dserodio's mention that after another reboot it started working again, I decided to just stop/start the service (process is owned by me, so no sudo required). Back in business!
launchctl stop com.maxgoedjen.Secretive.SecretAgent
launchctl start com.maxgoedjen.Secretive.SecretAgent
I'd guess this has something going awry with starting the launchd service at startup/boot.
After updating to 12.5.1 the problem returned, and restarting the service like @gogo-mmurphy suggested fixed it:
$ ssh-add -l
The agent has no identities.
$ launchctl stop com.maxgoedjen.Secretive.SecretAgent
$ launchctl start com.maxgoedjen.Secretive.SecretAgent
$ ssh-add -l
256 SHA256:3Pxbq/gyuGQKOCKqePXNcB9ULdT6G1vppg7gDBl47DY ecdsa-sha2-nistp256 (ECDSA)
Same thing here when upgrading from 12.6 to 12.6.1. Restarting the service helped. Any pointers on how I could gather debug information if this happens on next upgrade @maxgoedjen?
@dserodio I can confirm a similar issue and as soon as I added the ssh agent for Secretive it worked.
Thanks.
I noticed when I was playing around with the newly released 2.4.0 that there are sometimes multiple copies of SecretAgent running. I assume this is not desired. Killing them and then restarting the app so only 1 is running seems to fix things at least temporarily.
