Feature hasn't been suggested before.

  • [x] I have verified this feature I'm about to request hasn't been suggested before.

Describe the enhancement you want to request

While build and plan are helpful features, I also want casual chat feature (not stored anywhere) just to brainstorm before I gather my thoughts on issues I am facing or in general chat. with web-search it can be even more powerful. Otherwise I have to visit other websites and then gather required information for opencode to pick it up and work on it.

You can achieve this by creating your own custom primary agent. I did exactly this with my 'brainstorm' agent. It's still very much a work in progress and I'll rewrite my prompt as I experiment with it. But this should give you an idea of what to do. Write a prompt that makes the most sense to you. You can limit its use of tools as well. Check the docs.

I mean if we can have 'chat' here that would be good. Anyway Thank you, since this is the duplicate issue, I am closing it.

You can... If you make the agent a primary, it will show up there. You'll need to read the docs to understand how it works.
