I use bash. WT is configured in settings.json as

"colorScheme": "MSYS2-Theme",
                 "commandline": "C:/msys64/usr/bin/bash --login",
                 "environment":
                 {
                     "CHERE_INVOKING": "1",
                     "MSYS": "winsymlinks:nativestrict",
                     "MSYS2_PATH_TYPE": "inherit",
                     "MSYSTEM": "MSYS"
                 },
                 "guid": "{fc173dff-fd24-43df-b40e-28853998c744}",
                 "icon": "C:/msys64/msys2.ico",
                 "name": "MSYS2 MSYS Shell",
                 "startingDirectory": "C:/msys64/home/%USERNAME%"
...

In MSYS, UCRT64 and WSL, TERM has the same value xterm-256color. I 
grepped TERM in all .bashrc etc configuration files (also in /etc) but 
the result is empty.

MinTTY set TERM to xterm. If I start MinTTY (TERM==xterm) and there I 
type wsl to start WSL then even WSLstarted this way has TERM==xterm-256color

In short I did not find wher WT takes that value for TERM..
