   In the v2 TUI, session tabs show ? when a session is asking you a question, ! when it is waiting for a permission, and a dot when a background session has finished. Sounds and system notifications for these events are off by default; turn them on with attention.sound and attention.notifications in cli.json. To get v2: npm i -g @opencode/cli@latest or curl -fsSL https://opencode.ai/v2/install | bash (desktop: update the app). If you still see this on v2, please open a new issue with the details.
