What's broken
With Paseo set to Light, Codex CLI renders its input surface using dark-theme styling while the text remains dark, making typed input nearly unreadable.
The terminal is visibly white, but Paseo answers terminal color queries with fixed dark-theme values:
OSC 10 (foreground): rgb:e6e6/e6e6/e6e6
OSC 11 (background): rgb:0b0b/0b0b/0b0b
These values are hard-coded in packages/server/src/terminal/terminal.ts. Codex 0.144.4 uses the reported background color to choose light or dark UI styling, so it treats Paseo's Light terminal as dark.
This is separate from #1796 / #2083: those change the ANSI white palette, while this problem is caused by the reported default background color.
Steps to reproduce
- Set Paseo appearance to Light.
- On iOS, open a terminal connected to the Paseo daemon.
- Run Codex CLI 0.144.4.
- Type
/permissions.
- The input area has dark text on a dark surface and is nearly unreadable.
Expected
Terminal color-query responses match the active terminal theme, so terminal applications can choose readable colors.
