Pin 1.17.9, or move to the 1.18 line
There is no workaround within 1.17.10 — it crashes before anything you could configure is read. Downgrade one patch, or take the current release.
- 01Pin the last working patch:
npm install -g opencode-ai@1.17.9 - 02Or move forward to the current release, where the crash does not occur:
npm install -g opencode-ai@latest && opencode --version
Fix applies to 1.17.9, 1.18.4+

Why this happens
On Windows, 1.17.10 dies on startup with a Bun segmentation fault before the TUI paints. There is no partial session and no log beyond the crash itself. 1.17.9 on the same machine, same config, starts normally — which is what makes this straightforward to confirm.
Likely causeA Bun runtime regression in the version bundled with that release, hitting a Windows-specific code path. Nothing in user configuration affects it.

Approaches that failed1
Reinstalling and clearing config
Deleted the config directory and reinstalled twice, assuming local corruption. It crashes before config is read, so none of it mattered.

Other approaches that worked1
Downgrade to 1.17.9
Immediate. One patch back, no config changes, works.

Confirming this is closed from my side — 1.18.11 on Windows 11 starts fine. Leaving the record up because 1.17.10 is still what you get if you pinned it, and the crash gives you nothing to search for on its own.
