silent

silent mutes a plugin’s stdout and stderr during loading and suppresses the “Loaded …” message. It is a strict superset of lucid.

Terminal window
zi ice silent
zi ice wait silent # common turbo combination

silent applies two suppressions:

  1. The plugin’s own stdout and stderr are discarded during sourcing.
  2. The “Loaded …” message that turbo mode prints under the prompt is hidden.

lucid only suppresses the “Loaded …” message, leaving the plugin’s output intact. Use silent when a plugin is noisy on load and you want complete silence.

Terminal window
# Completely silent turbo load
zi ice wait silent
zi light user/verbose-plugin
  • lucid
  • notify
