Fish shell cursor setting doesn't work

[blt-r]

I use vi mode in fish shell with different cursor shapes for different modes like this:

# config.fish
fish_vi_key_bindings
set fish_cursor_default     block      blink
set fish_cursor_insert      line       blink
set fish_cursor_replace_one underscore blink
set fish_cursor_visual      block

But in Ghostty the cursor is always a line in shell. If I do shell-integration-features = no-cursor or shell-integration = none, the cursor will always be a block.

It works as expected in every other terminal I used.

I have a similar problem, but the cursor is always a line, and cannot be changed by terminal settings. Also the blinking randomly appears and disappears as I use some ncurses programs

Same issue here. Vi mode works in Kitty. Got Ghostty mostly setup with a lean config. Only issue I'm seeing so far is switching between shells (zsh and fish) has this same issue. Cursor seems to work in zsh, however not in fish. It just remains as a bar in both normal & insert mode

# conf.d/vi.fish
set fish_cursor_default     block      blink
set fish_cursor_insert      line       blink
set fish_cursor_replace_one underscore blink
set fish_cursor_visual      block

Plop this in your Fish config:

if status is-interactive
    if string match -q -- '*ghostty*' $TERM
        set -g fish_vi_force_cursor 1
    end
end

Once your copy of Fish has fish-shell/fish-shell#10685, it'll work without this too.
