Research direction

Start with the startup path around ServerConnection.resolve, Tui.run, and Drive.create(), then reproduce the failure using the isolated CLI/server processes and timing gate described in the issue. Compare the baseline and repaired PTY recordings. Done means an early exit before the frontend recorder attaches still retains an exportable stdout/stderr or PTY recording.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

Could Drive retain a terminal recording when OpenCode exits before its frontend control endpoint starts?

While verifying managed-service bootstrap against OpenCode V2 68b28bdb98, the CLI successfully resolves server A, then A exits before Tui.run makes its first request. The current code fails with ClientError: Transport before reaching Drive.create(). A repaired build renders successfully, but the baseline has no frontend recorder to capture its failure. Drive 2.1.3's scripted --server path also bypasses the managed resolution boundary this test needs.

The reproduction uses isolated real CLI/server processes and a timing gate after actual ServerConnection.resolve: stop owned A, start B at another address, then release the TUI. We captured matched before/after PTY recordings with Terminal Control. A pre-attachment stdout/stderr or PTY capture, retained and exportable on early exit, would let Drive cover this startup failure without waiting for a renderer that never starts.
