Hey @maximebj - I posted an update here - [macOS 13 Ventura and Open Site Shell - #41 by austinwendt](http://community.localwp.com/t/macos-13-ventura-and-open-site-shell/33870/41)

In short, we think it is an underlying bug in macOS 13 with Terminal, as it has appeared in other online communities/apps that are unrelated to Local or WordPress. Interacting with Terminal appears to have some issues, and a bug report was filed with Apple for the issue. We’re still digging on our end to see if there is a workaround in the mean-time.
