That's unfortunate. Seems like the package is expecting c++ installed in a specific place (/usr/lib/libc++.1.dylib). Can you confirm:

• Which pytorch version do you have installed on your system? It should be >= 1.6.0 based on this comment You can upgrade it by running pip install --upgrade torch in your terminal
• Does the /usr/lib/libc++.1.dylib file exist? If so, can you try install the Khoj backend in a python virtual environment

  python -m venv .venv && source .venv\bin\activate
  pip install khoj-assistant
  cp /usr/lib/libc++.1.dylib .venv/lib/python3.11/site-packages/torch/lib # the suggested fix
  khoj

• Is xcode installed on your Mac? You can install it by running xcode-select --install on your terminal
