Originally created by @vinicius507 on GitHub (Jul 22, 2025).

Originally assigned to: @adamdotdevin on GitHub.

Description:
When running OpenCode within a Neovim terminal session and having the EDITOR environment variable configured to use neovim-remote (nvr), attempting to use the /editor command results in silent failure. The command appears to execute but no buffer/editor instance opens, and no error message is displayed to indicate what went wrong.

Environment:

  • OpenCode version: 0.3.9
  • Neovim version: 0.11.2
  • Neovim Remote version: 2.5.1
  • Terminal: Neovim terminal (:terminal or similar)
  • Editor: EDITOR environment variable set to neovim-remote (nvr)
  • Platform: MacOS/Linux

Expected Behavior:
The /editor command should either:

  1. Successfully open the file in the existing Neovim instance via neovim-remote, or
  2. Display a clear error message explaining why it cannot open the editor

Actual Behavior:
The /editor command fails silently with no feedback to the user about what went wrong.

Steps to Reproduce:

  1. Set EDITOR environment variable to neovim-remote (e.g., export EDITOR=nvr --servername SERVER_NAME --remote-tab-wait +'setl bh=delete')
  2. Open Neovim
  3. Start a terminal session within Neovim (:terminal)
  4. Run OpenCode in the terminal
  5. Attempt to use the /editor command
  6. Observe that nothing happens and no error is reported

Workaround:
Spawn a neovim instance inside the existing one.

EDIT: Upon executing opencode with the --print-logs flags, I managed to see an error entry in the logs but it is obfuscated.

I don't know why nvr doesn't work with OpenCode, but you can try using my plugin unnest.nvim, which just works with OpenCode /editor

@vinicius507 i found the issue to be caused by +'setl bh=delete'. The ' quotes get lost when the command is executed which causes nvr to error out and opencode can't handle it correctly.

The way i solved it was defining a seperate command that sets the bufhidden option so that you don't need a space and quotes with the nvr command.

@brianhuster i like your plugin as an alternative. My tip is using it with $EDITOR="nvim --headless" for opencode.
