Thanks for this amazing project.

Mouse text selection has these issues:

• Can't select text beyond viewport (no scrolling while selecting)
• Selection immediately copies to clipboard on release
• Mouse coordinates don't account for scroll position

These behaviors differ from standard terminal applications like vim, tmux, and less.

Fixed in https://github.com/sst/opencode/pull/1209

@Pivert commented on GitHub (Aug 5, 2025):

Indeed, this copy on release completely breaks the standard select to copy mode in terminals.
This is a total pain when using opencode from docker, since copy on select is the only option, and there's not clip board.

We should be able to:

  • Disable clipboard completely (when there are no clipboard/xclip...)
  • (possibly) use the tmux clipboard.

Thanks for this great tool.

Just came here to agree: copy and paste operations should use standard system paradigm: click-drag to select a region, double-click to select a word, triple-click to select a line; control-C or command-C to copy to system clipboard. It's a slight but very real cognitive load issue.

Thanks for this great project, it rocks!

This should be improved in the latest version. It still copies on mouse release, but that will change soon. In the textarea you can however select text with shift+arrow keys.
