Not recording commands

Help
1

I’m not using sync at all, just local db on one machine.
I installed atuin via curl, ran export HISTFILE then atuin import zsh
I see all the commands up that point, but no new ones are added. I can see new commands being added to .zsh_history, but atuin is not adding them to the database. I verified this by looking at the history table.

I have the following in my .zshrc:

. "$HOME/.atuin/bin/env"

eval "$(atuin init zsh)"

doctor outputs:

{
  "atuin": {
    "version": "18.3.0",
    "sync": null,
    "sqlite_version": "3.46.0"
  },
  "shell": {
    "name": "zsh",
    "default": "zsh",
    "plugins": [
      "atuin"
    ],
    "preexec": "built-in"
  },
  "system": {
    "os": "Darwin",
    "arch": "arm64",
    "version": "14.7.1",
    "disks": [
      {
        "name": "Macintosh HD",
        "filesystem": "apfs"
      },
      {
        "name": "Macintosh HD",
        "filesystem": "apfs"
      }
    ]
  }
}

any ideas?
