Opencode 0.1.41 - installed via brew
Ghostty 1.1.3
Macos 15.4.1
Model Sonnet 4 authenticated via claude pro subscription

Unsure what I am doing wrong, maybe I don't know the right keybind to scroll through the model output? I tried scroll wheel, arrow keys, j and k, ctrl u and d. I can't move up to see any of the previous messages in the session.

@net commented on GitHub (Jun 14, 2025):

It would be great to have a mode that doesn't use alternate screen mode.

Claude Code gets this right where it (mostly) just outputs into the terminal buffer. This lets you use the familiar UX of your terminal emulator or multiplexer to do scrolling, searching, and copying, instead of having to re-implement all those actions in a unfamiliar-to-the-user and often subpar way.

Okay it is ctrl + u and d as well as page up and page down. I don't know why this wasn't working before, but yeah I second @net point about it being unfamiliar to the user.

@aashish2057 to be fair, those are standard vi/vim/less keybindings for page up and down. Unfortunately they conflict with readline keybindings for delete next character and delete to start of line (#100), and I think only make sense in "view" mode environment like vi/vim/less.

Yeah going to close to since the main issue is taken care of, and don't want to add useless issues for Dax. It's linked in your issue @net so it can be referred back to when they look at that one.

I guess I can create a separate issue for mine.
