Cannot load Scripting Addition on Macbook Air M1 2020

[DragonDev07]

Hi! Im having an issue when trying to run the sudo yabai --load-sa command, where I get the following error:

could not spawn remote thread: (os/kern) invalid argument
yabai: scripting-addition failed to inject payload into Dock.app!

I've looked into fixing this through this issue: #1234, but none of the solutions that were provided worked (Changing boot args, fully disabling SIP, Uninstalling and Reinstalling SA, etc.)

Does anyone have another way to try and fix this issue?

Are you running off HEAD (brew install koekeishiya/formulae/yabai --HEAD)? Ventura 13.0 support isn't officially released yet but it's working well for me form master

I just tried it, and it doesn't seem to work still. I also get spammed by yabai wanting to be allowed with accessibility to control the computer, even though it is already allowed to. When I try to load SA it is the same error as before.

@DragonDev07 had the same issue, I think it's because you need to use the actual yabai binary (instead of just output of which yabai, which is a symlink). So whatever is the output of $(brew --prefix yabai)/bin/yabai basically.

Seems necessary both during self-sign step (as mentioned here), and when you add it to the accessibility settings. I'll try to update the wiki to mention that.

@karlicoss I tried this, and it still doesn't work, giving the same error.

I have this issue as well.

Follow the wiki instructions exactly as they are written, and it should work (does on both my machines anyway).
