Something happened after I installed the plugin，about IDA API？

Hello @edgarfy

This error occurs when IDA is opened without an input file. Tenet logs are saved in the same directory as the loaded binary; if no binary is loaded, the IDA API returns None. In the next version, I will implement error handling to provide a clearer message when this happens. Additionally, I'm currently developing a new tracer, which I plan to release soon.

Thank you for your feedback!
