Chosen theme not persisted #27784
Description
Description
Hi!
In v1.15 the theme chosen via /themes doesn't seem to be persisted and only seems to be active for the current session.
Steps to reproduce:
- Launch opencode
- /themes and choose a theme (system in my case) => theme active
- close opencode and relaunch => default theme active again
Versions:
Opencode: 1.15
Terminal: Ghostty, v1.3.1
Operating System: macOS 26.5
I also set "theme": "system" in my opencode.json (according to the docs). Weirdly enough I don't see the property in the output of opencode debug config, but it seems to be set correctly in ~/.local/state/opencode/kv.json (at least I see a "theme": "system" in there).

Hi @Arjith8 ,
oh, weird. I must've been looking at the wrong part of the docs, I was looking at: https://opencode.ai/docs/de/themes/#theme-verwenden, doesn't mention the tui.json there.
It was indeed set (wrongly) in tui.json, changed it and seems to work now!
Sorry for the false alarm. :D
