Cannot rebind input_submit #26074
Description
Description
(Related to #1505)
EDIT: I played around with it some more and found that adding tab works as expected - but ctrl+j or f1 do not. ctrl+j DID work for newlines, tho, so something is different about input_submit.
I 've been unable to get shift+return to input newlines (using terminator). As a workaround, I'd prefer to simply have "enter" always produce a newline, and use one of the more awkward sequences (ctrl+j) to send. However, the updated bindings do not trigger a submit at all.
Expected Behavior
I expect to be able to rebind input_submit to some other keybinding, and then use unmodified enter as newlines.
Observed Behavior
Some change was recognized, as hitting enter now creates a newline rather than submitting. But the newly added commands (ctrl+j, f1) do not input either; I've found no way to actually send a prompt unless input_submit is bound to return.
(see above, binding input_submit to tab does work.)

UPDATE - playing around with it more, I found I can bind input_submit to tab and that works. No idea why f1 and ctrl j do not. ctrl j worked when it was the binding for newline.
OH but I cannot rebind agent cycle to ctrl+tab... that's fine, I can cycle with shift+tab, but throwing that on the pile

terminator does not properly support key modifiers or kitty keyboard. There have been some workarounds of users in other issues where they configure terminator to send the proper modified key sequence for shift+enter so it works. Unfortunately there is nothing we can do from application side when the terminal does not send key sequences properly.

I know that's a very common issue, but I think what I'm describing is different. These are key bindings which OpenCode recognizes in some contexts - so Terminator is capturing them - but are not recognized in others. e.g.,
ctrl+jworked for me for "newline without submit", but when I tried to bind it to "submit", nothing happened. (NOT "enter still caused submit to fire" - when submit was bound toctrl+j, nothing caused submit to fire.)github-actions commentedon Jul 12, 2026

To make Enter insert a newline and Ctrl+Enter submit, use:
{ "$schema": "https://opencode.ai/tui.json", "keybinds": { "input_newline": "return", "input_submit": "linefeed" } }You can check out the details here
