Is it possible that this is a permissions issue? I finally got around to doing a permissions repair (which I usually do once every major OS update) and I noticed that the permissions for the OS version of Ruby were "Repaired". 

As mentioned above though, it shouldn't be an issue with the extension/workflow/alfred because it works perfectly fine for me in a fresh mavericks install. Both the Recent Downloads and Recent Documents (created by Clinton) are ruby based and work as expected.

In that case, would you care to speculate as to why certain workflows would stop working after upgrading? Clinton's Ruby solution seems to make sense to me, but I would be happy to consider other possibilities.

Is your ruby install the default install with the OS or something custom built or installed from something like home-brew? The reason I ask is, I'm not a big ruby guy so I don't have any kind of special installation of it and the recent downloads workflow and a recent documents workflow I have both seem to work fine in Mavericks.

I'm pretty sure that /usr/bin/ruby is the OS X copy. If I had installed ruby via home-brew it would be in /usr/local/Cellar/. Please correct me if I'm mistaken.

Clinton is right to point out that this is an extension/ruby issue. Thanks for that, Clinton.

If I have any feedback for the Recent Downloads workflow, I'll put it in the other thread (http://www.alfredforum.com/topic/338-recent-downloads-with-feedback/page-3).

I'm having this same issue.

This was working before Mavericks.

Let's use Recent Downloads (https://github.com/ddjfreedom/recent-downloads-alfred-v2) as an example.

I'll type "Rec", the Recent Downloads workflow displays below the Alfred prompt as before, I hit the down arrow, then enter, and at that point Alfred reverts to the default search.

In the terminal, the output of whereas ruby is /usr/bin/ruby

Thanks for looking into this!
