   This issue might be a duplicate of existing issues. Please check:

   • macOS: Terminal becomes unusable after opencode exits ("dead terminal") #7861: macOS: Terminal becomes unusable after opencode exits ("dead terminal") - Related to macOS terminal/PTY issues
   • Desktop app fails to start on Linux/Wayland - 'open terminal failed: not a terminal' #9505: Desktop app fails to start on Linux/Wayland - 'open terminal failed: not a terminal' - Similar PTY allocation/creation failures

   Both issues involve PTY (pseudo-terminal) creation failures on macOS/Linux systems. If you're experiencing the [forkpty: Device not configured] error, these discussions might provide helpful context.

   Feel free to ignore if none of these address your specific case.
