Getting error Error: could not prompt: unexpected escape sequence from terminal: ['\x1b' ']'] when executing command gh copilot suggest "create a directory"

Steps to reproduce:

• install 'gh' using 'brew install gh' https://cli.github.com

• run command gh copilot suggest "create a directory" in Zed terminal

Environment

macOS: 14.4 (23E214)

Terminal: xterm-256color -zsh

Tried same steps in Mac native terminal & in iterm2 terminal - using same xterm-256color -zsh - that worked. It only fails in Zed terminal.

I received the same error message, but only if I use screen (4.9.0-1) in vscode (1.88.1). If I use screen in another termina GUI it does not happen. If I use without screen, or with tmux, it does not happen.
I removed my complete .screenrc file and the behaviour is the same. 🤷‍♀️

It even dumps strange characters as well.
Overall experience:

$ gh copilot explain tmux

  tmux is a terminal multiplexer that allows you to create and manage multiple terminal sessions within a single window. It provides features such as splitting the window into panes,
  detaching and reattaching sessions, and running commands in the background.

I'm getting this error too only in Zed's terminal (using fish).

When I run the same command outside zed (using kitty + fish), this error does not happen.
