Found a bug in Ghostty’s kitty protocol handling
-
Ghostty is a modern and fast terminal emulator that i personally use. While testing the kitty protocol feature in rasterminal, I found a Ghostty bug that lagged my whole computer after a few minutes. I tested it in Kitty (terminal emulator) and there it worked fine.
-
I looked at Ghostty’s code vs Kitty’s, found the bug and reported it to the Ghostty maintainers. Mitchell himself (the creator) fixed it in like 2 hours.

Honestly I’m kinda sad I didn’t get to become a contributor and fix the bug, but since it was a small fix and I already described it in the issue, I get why Mitchell just fixed it in main.
Here’s the full issue: https://github.com/ghostty-org/ghostty/discussions/13719
