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

    If your issue is distinct (e.g., it worked before and broke after a specific event, rather than never working), please add additional details to help distinguish it from the above.

    Not a duplicate since these issues are describing a completely blank screen like the UI is not loading. In my case the UI is loading but for some reason the projects don't don't open, meanwhile the TUI is not-afftected and working correctly

    I just downgraded to 1.2.7, still broken. Updating to 1.3.0 does not yet again fix the issue.
    I cannot find logs being produced to share/debug, i tried open -a "OpenCode" --args --log-level DEBUG and export OPENCODE_LOG_LEVEL=DEBUG open -a "OpenCode" but does not seem to affect the logging situation.

    Nuked the entire installation with https://github.com/tw93/Mole (made backup of the ~/.config/opencode) and on clean slate it worked. Bringing back the confing folder from backup, it broke it again. Removing the folder, fixed it.

    So what worked at the end was removing everything from config except the opencode.json config file. My guess is that there was some stale plugin or auth or whatever that prevented it from starting properly.
