Anyone experiencing the error output with zsh ssh completion? "Error: ZSH anchor based matching active, cannot complete"

[xuhdev]

When I use kitty with zsh, running

kitten ssh zzzz<Tab>

leads to the error message:

Error: ZSH anchor based matching active, cannot complete

However, ssh zzzz<Tab> correctly informs me that there is no completion.

(Please note that there must be no auto completion for zzzz on the host to reproduce.)

Has anyone experienced a similar problem? I'm not sure whether this is a zsh problem or a kitty problem...

Context: zstyle | grep '\<ssh\>' outputs:

        :completion:*:(ssh|scp|sftp):*

I saw a related issue #7491, but what does "anchor-based completion" mean?

kitty zsh completion wont work with anchor based matching. see cli/zsh.go
