All of a sudden colors are completely messed up in zeds terminal. Tried bisecting between zed and opencode but couldnt find what caused this.

It was perfect prior to this week.

@mpiannucci I think this was actually Zed's fault. I use opencode in the Zed terminal a lot and I noticed it like last week or so without any update to opencode.

So I am fairly certain it is on the Zed end rather than opencode

I updated to macos 26, so that actually may be the real catalyst, backtracked to zed 203.4 and all the same issues, and i was on that version before. Ill post an issue on zeds tracker

nice thx, I think I will close here because this doesn't appear to be opencode.

Tho opencode is about to be rewritten: https://github.com/sst/opencode/pull/2685

This was magically fixed today with either the latest zed or opencode update 🥳
