clipboard copy not works in remote SSH console. #2773
Description
hi .
Sometimes I use opencode / claude code in remote SSH console.
Claude Code allows copy selected text.
But I can not copy text in remote console with Opencode.
Is it intended or missing or is there a way to copy text ?

This should be fixed in next version of the tui, rn it is being rewritten: #2685

Still having this issue on opencode installed today. Has this new TUI been released yet?
rekram1-node commentedon Nov 21, 2025
yeah, maybe a tmux issue for u?

Yes, proper osc52 handling is missing, opencode currently only copies to local clipboard. Opentui should provide a copyToClipboard method to handle that properly.

fwiw: I'm having this issue as well. I use tmux, but it WAS working fine before the 1.0 release. That's when copy broke for me.

i tried a lot of ways to get select text and copy to clipboard working with opencode in an ssh session. the only thing I could get to work was to use guacamole and ssh. it works but i'd rather not have to use this method.
how are others successfully able to copy text over an ssh session? why has this been such a persistent problem? most other terminal coders don't have this issue.
i really like opencode and it's my daily driver but this copy thing has me vexed for real.
my current workflow is to work normally in a regular tmux/ssh session. then in the rare case where I have to copy something, i fire up a guacamole session, ssh into the host, tmux attach, select the text, which gets copied into the clipboard of the browser/host where i'm sitting. tmux detach then go back to my regular terminal.
it works, but what a hack. i should be able to just select and copy text like any other terminal.
sometimes I can get the text with the /export command and once in vim select copy works normally, but that always doesn't work since not everything in the conversation shows up in the export.
I, for one would be very pleased if this issue were fixed.

FYI: This has been resolved for me as of 1.1.26 (shuv1337#309)
I see that #9374 is now open, so hopefully whatever is needed to resolve that issue doesn't break whatever is allowing me to copy to clipboard again! 😆

almost the end of 2026 and this issue is still not resolved....

no one with any authority to do anything about it, sees this as an issue to be fixed. this means you can check back in another year and it's not likely to be addressed by then either.
opencode works great when I'm working on the computer I'm sitting in front of, which is RARELY. 95% of the time my coding agent is running in a remote session, via ssh or docker exec shell. one of the many reason I switched to pi a long time ago and have never looked back.

Quick workaround until it's fixed that works for me: Connect to your remote server via SSH through VSCode and from there open up a terminal in a new window (top toolbar → Terminal → New Terminal Window OR Ctrl + Shift + Alt + `). Open up opencode from there as usual and copying now works.

@niicolaai thanks for the solution but i mostly use my vps with ssh like this on my iphone while i’m not at home so it won’t work for me…
