This is a shot in the dark, I wonder if this is a MacOS folder protection thing. Can you save to a different folder that is not under one of the protected folders (e.g. not under Downloads, Desktop, Photos, Library, etc) like in the root of your user directory?

If so, check System Preferences -> Privacy & Security -> Files & Folders -> Zed and make sure the "Downloads Folder" access is enabled for Zed.
