The command-output tail (web timeline and mobile thread) mangles colours and styles when a command uses extended underline codes. With ESC[1;31m (bold red) in force:
ESC[4:3m (curly underline) also turns the text italic.ESC[4:0m (underline off) wipes the bold and the red.ESC[58;2;255;0;0m (underline colour) resets the pen to default.On its own, ESC[58;5;31m turns text red, and ESC[4m followed by ESC[58:2::255:0:0m loses the underline. Expected: the other attributes stay as they were, and underline colour is ignored because the renderer doesn't draw it.
Two small changes in packages/shared/src/terminalOutput.ts:
csiParams handled colon sub-parameters correctly only for 38/48. For any other code it pushed each sub-parameter as its own SGR code, so 4:3 became 4;3 and 4:0 became 4;0. Now a colon group whose head isn't 38/48/58 keeps only its head. 4:0 maps to 24 (underline off).applySgr now treats 58 like 38/48: it consumes the 5;n / 2;r;g;b values but doesn't store them. The colon form 58:2::r:g:b drops the empty colour-space id the same way 38:2 already did.The server (CommandOutputHub) and clients (client-runtime commandOutput) share this parser, so this one change fixes web, desktop and mobile.
This is a very small, focused fix for an obvious bug, so it doesn't need a prior issue. The parser already handled the colon and extended-colour forms for 38/48. Other SGR codes with sub-parameters, and 58, fell through to the generic path and were misread as unrelated codes. The fix changes 2 functions in one file (+11/-3) and adds no new attributes or rendering. It doesn't change any contract, setting or UI.
Added a table-driven test in packages/shared/src/terminalOutput.test.ts for the five inputs above. Each case checks the resulting spans from terminalOutputSpans. It also checks that splitting the input into two chunks at every position gives the same text as parsing it in one piece.
Without the source fix (git stash push -- packages/shared/src/terminalOutput.ts):
| 1 | $ node_modules/.bin/vp test run packages/shared/src/terminalOutput.test.ts |

The change is in shared parsing that the unit tests above cover, and it has no visual changes beyond showing the correct attributes.

Macroscope's review found this PR approvable — This is a small, self-contained fix in the shared terminal-output parser, with targeted tests and no changes to schemas, defaults, deployment, or security-sensitive code. Its runtime effect is limited to preventing underline escape sequences from corrupting existing command-output colours and styles.

SGR parsing now consumes extended colour parameters for codes 38, 48, and 58. It stores foreground and background colours, but discards underline colour. Colon-form parameters handle style variants and limit colour fields to the selected mode. Tests cover styling and output across input splits.

Explanation
The title names the main change: underline style and colour parsing in shared terminal output no longer scrambles other command output colours. It matches the parser fix in terminalOutput.ts, which handles colon sub-parameters for non-38/48/58 codes and consumes SGR 58 values. The title is 83 characters, which is long, but it is specific and follows the conventional commit form.
Explanation
The description follows the template's sections: Problem, Change, Scope and approval, and Verification. The Problem section gives reproduction sequences and expected behavior. The Change section explains the two edits in terminalOutput.ts and why the shared parser affects web, desktop, and mobile. The Scope section argues that the fix is small and obvious, so no prior issue is needed. The Verification section lists focused tests, a failing run before the fix, a passing run after it, and lint, format, and type checks. It also states what was not checked. The template's optional HTML comments are not required content. Minor gap: the Scope section does not link a triaged issue, but it gives the small-fix justification the template allows.

Re the outside-diff note on terminalOutput.ts:315-325: the leak was real, but I fixed it differently in 35b0f0a. The suggested patch would strip sub[2] as a colour-space id. In ITU T.416, indexed colour is 58:5:<index>, and only the :2: RGB form carries a colour-space id, so 58:5:0:31 would be read as index 31. Instead, a colon group now keeps only the fields its mode uses (3 for :5:, 5 for :2: after the id is dropped) and discards the rest. Stray fields no longer reach applySgr. Added regressions: 58:5:0:32 (previously turned text green) and 38:5:1:4 (previously added an underline).

Verified as-is at 35b0f0a576b579d0ab5a2a72a454afc1601a62bb on a Linux Boat VM. Read the description, discussion, reviews and diff; the PR is open and none of its three commits is by juliusmarminge or t3dotgg. GitCafe mirror: https://git.cafe/pingdotgg/t3code/pulls/21542.
Ran vp i and background vp run dev separately on github/main (6575ce32508bd7908444241f3719aa33aaf77f90) and the exact contributor head, with only one dev server running at a time. Used repository Playwright with /usr/bin/google-chrome. Created a real checkout project and thread through the app, selected Codex gpt-6.1-sol, and sent the same printf command on both revisions. No seeded data, mocks or replay provider.
Expanded the real provider command in the timeline. Main reproduces all seven regressions: 4:3 adds italic; 4:0 drops bold/red; 58;2 resets bold/red; 58;5;31 leaks red; 58:2::255:0:0 drops underline; 58:5:0:32 leaks green; 38:5:1:4 leaks underline. The PR renders all seven correctly in light and dark themes. Checked rendered spans as well as screenshots. True-colour foreground, indexed background, ordinary italic/underline and selective resets still work. Collapsing/reopening the output and reloading/restarting the PR server preserve the result.
Short runtime transcript:

| 2 | main: real provider completed in 11.3s; seven incorrect styled rows |
| 3 | PR: real provider completed in 9.2s; all seven rows correct |

Main initially failed to display its completed provider turn for over ten minutes. Provider logs showed successful execution; restarting main and reopening the thread recovered the actual output and allowed the before capture. This was separate from the underline parser. No source changes or pushes were needed. Six reported PR checks are successful; none are pending or failing.
before: main corrupts underline-related colours and styles
after: exact PR head preserves colours and styles
after: dark theme preserves the same output
real app: expand, collapse and reopen the Codex command output
Native iOS/Android and the Electron desktop shell were not exercised on this Linux web run. Other providers, remote/relay/tunnel connections and other operating systems were not exercised. The recording shows completed output expansion, not live streaming; split-input behavior is covered by the focused parser tests. No full repository checks were run. No changes were made to the PR.

✅ Addressed in commit a6cf32e
Fixed in a6cf32ed1d: after a semicolon-form 38/48/58 the parser now reads the mode part, so 38;2:255:0:0 and 38;5:1 keep their colour fields, and it skips the colour values that follow so a value is never read as a code. I added regression cases for both forms with a following attribute.
🤖 Addressed by Claude Code
@MarcoDotIO The supplied csiParams implementation preserves the colour fields in both 38;2:255:0:0 and 38;5:1. It also keeps following SGR attributes separate from colour values. This addresses the reported regression.

| 14 | |
| 15 | - Proof for a bug fix depends on the bug. Logic, data, state, and protocol bugs get a failing test first (the fewest that fail on `main` for that reason, in an existing case of the module's test file where one fits), then the fix. Purely visual bugs (spacing, colour, alignment, a layout shift) get before/after captures as their proof and no test: do not add UI tests for nitpicks, and do not ask for one in review when a capture already shows it. A server-only fix with no visible surface ships the test plus a short runtime transcript. |
