How to run opencode in Terminal Candy
- 01
Install Terminal Candy
Download the DMG, drag it to Applications, and launch. It is a real, fully native macOS terminal — nothing to configure.
- 02
Run opencode inside it
Run `opencode` in a Terminal Candy window. Because Terminal Candy is a genuine terminal (real PTY, full VT, true color), opencode runs exactly as it does anywhere else — Terminal Candy never touches its binary or config.

Skin it, then walk away
Pick a skin and opencode wears it live — no restart. Turn on agent alerts and Terminal Candy bounces, chimes, or jumps to the front the moment opencode finishes or needs your input.
