Originally created by @JosXa on GitHub (Feb 2, 2026).

Originally assigned to: @kommander on GitHub.

Summary

Add support for transparent/translucent terminal backgrounds in the TUI, allowing the terminal's background to show through opencode.

Motivation

Many users prefer translucent terminal windows for aesthetic reasons or to see content behind the terminal. Currently, opencode renders with an opaque background that overrides any terminal transparency settings.

Proposed Solution

  • Add a toggle command in the TUI to enable/disable transparency
  • When enabled, set the background color to fully transparent (RGBA 0,0,0,0)
  • Persist the setting so it's remembered across sessions

Additional Context

This feature has been requested and implemented in PR #5657.
