[SOLVED] ZSH only run certain command if in certain terminals

Hi there, I wanted to run neofetch when I open a TTY or kitty. I use the terminal in vscode and jetbrains IDEs quite often, and having neofetch autostart in them is really annoying as I can't see much. Is there a way that I can make neofetch only run if zsh is only running in kitty or a tty. Is this even possible?

[[ "$(cat /proc/$PPID/comm)" =~ "(kitty|urxvt|xterm)" ]] && neofetch

You can obviously invert the logics to rule out specific terminals. For the console compare the outputs of "tty"
