Hi, at the moment I don't have much time. Feel free to create a PR.

I had the same issue, check in you log if you have any error message. If you see the message "The language server is no longer running.", check that your node folder is the right one in the extension settings.

A work around I ran across: If you have Rider installed and have the Copilot plugin working, it shares the login.

Confirmed by ⌘ + ⌥ + ' working.

Yes had the same problem and found the solution : 1) You must install node 2) You must set the path where to find node in the extension settings (go to the extensions, choose the "Copilot for Nova" one, you'll find 3 folders "Details", "Settings" & "Publication Notes"...

@TheBoatyMcBoatFace do you know what to do if :Copilot status reports disabled but :Copilot setup reports Authenticated as <user>? I can't tell if that matters, as trying to use the extension to Sign in still does nothing even after inputting the path to node.
