[FEATURE]: desktop chat feature request for casual chat and help to brainstorm
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.
This issue might be a duplicate of existing issues. Please check:

Feel free to ignore if none of these address your specific case.
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.
