Also facing a similar issue. I guess starting one server and attaching terminals is the way to go for now.
Start headless server:
opencode serve --hostname 0.0.0.0 --port 4096Attach tui:
opencode attach http://localhost:4096 --dir /path/to/project. Important to specify the dir so that you can access/continue sessions from that foldergerwim commentedon Feb 17, 2026
Same issue on my Debian VM. Windows works fine... 🤔

I have installed it through homebrew on Linux and the issue has gone away. Both NPM (through nvm) and homebrew were on 1.2.6.

Happens to me with version
1.2.15. Attaching works, but I guess this should just be the workaround
