Description
On Windows, opencode2 from @opencode/cli v2.0.3 fails to start the managed background service and exits with:
Starting background server...
[07:36:33.937] ERROR (#1): Error: Timed out waiting for the background service to start

The package postinstall completes without an error and opencode2 --version reports opencode v2.0.3, but launching opencode2 itself cannot bring up/connect to the background service.
This may be related to #41746 / #41696, but this reproduces on the stable v2.0.3 release rather than an older next build.
Plugins
None required to reproduce; startup fails before the TUI opens.
OpenCode version
opencode v2.0.3
Steps to reproduce
- On Windows, install
@opencode/cliso it is present undernode_modules/@opencode/cli. - From
node_modules/@opencode/cli, run:
node .\postinstall.mjs
- Confirm the installed v2 CLI:
opencode2 --version
Output:
opencode v2.0.3
- Run:
opencode2
- It prints
Starting background server...and then times out waiting for the background service.
