+1 from me. Fresh session, the agent keeps working in the background, only the UI crashes.
Would be very helpful, if there was a menu option to toggle the devtools in the webview.

Edit. The culprit is the review panel.

Still crashes. Specifically, crashes if review panel is opened on launch.

Any updates on this? @adamdotdevin

Facing the same problem. After clicking on the file changes. I can't even open the desktop app anymore. Everytime it's opening, it's carshing and showing a blank view. No menu options or anything can be accessed.

@me-shaon I've managed to bypass the crash on startup by pressing the keyboard shortcut for review panel (Shift+Cmd+R) to, hopefully, close the panel before it crashes the main process. Takes a few tries, but app doesn't crash until you open the review panel again (also takes some time before crash, sometimes you can open it without app crashing).

Possibly can just disable the panel opening on startup by editing the settings files, but i,ve no idea where such files (if any) are placed.

You can directly alter the basic config here:
~/Library/Application Support/ai.opencode.desktop/

editing the opencode.global.dat file directly:

• "layout" key then find review\":{\"diffStyle\":\"split\",\"panelOpened\":true}
• set the panelOpened\":false

Restart opencode.

But yea its suuuuper annoying. Dunno why its happening because it seems to work fine for other people in our company.
For me its every session, every project. Moment I try to look at diffs it borks out.
