[bug] built-in theme in tui.json not loading on startup

[nvimcraft]

Description

Theme configured in tui.json is not applied on startup. Created ~/.config/opencode/tui.json with "theme": "everforest" but OpenCode always starts with the default "opencode" theme. Using /theme command works, but the config should be read automatically.

Plugins

None

OpenCode version

Version: 1.2.10

Steps to reproduce

1. Create ~/.config/opencode/tui.json:

   {
     "$schema": "https://opencode.ai/tui.json",
     "theme": "everforest"
   }

2. Run opencode (from any directory)
3. Theme is still default "opencode" instead of everforest

Expected: Theme should be everforest
Actual: Default opencode theme is used (or whatever was previously set using /theme)

This issue might be a duplicate of a previously reported issue. Please check:

• 1.0.2 - Themes in opencode.json files not respected. #3634: Themes in config files not respected on startup (closed, was about opencode.json theme config not applying - similar symptom but different config file)

If that issue was fixed but the problem persists with tui.json, it may be worth referencing it for context.

Closing as duplicate of 1.0.2 - Themes in opencode.json files not respected. #3634

NOTE: This is about tui.json (the recommended config location per docs), while #3634 was about opencode.json. If the fix differs for tui.json, please let me know - happy to help test.
