opencode CLI hangs on macOS 15 (Apple Silicon) – daemon fails to start, empty ~/.opencode/package.json #8707
Description
Description
TL;DR
On macOS 15.7.x (Apple Silicon, arm64), opencode CLI hangs indefinitely when starting the daemon.
opencode --version works, but any command requiring the daemon blocks forever (opencode, opencode auth login, opencode --print-logs).
No daemon process is ever started (ps aux | grep opencode shows nothing while hanging).
Initialization stops early: ~/.opencode/package.json is created but contains only {}.
No logs or crash reports are produced, even with OPENCODE_DEBUG=1.
Environment
Device: MacBook Air (M1, Apple Silicon)

Shell: zsh / bash
