opencode-auto-continue

OpenCode plugin that automatically sends a continuation prompt when agent sessions go idle, keeping long-running tasks moving without manual intervention.

Install

Add to opencode.json:

{
  "plugin": [
    "opencode-auto-continue"
  ]
}

Or install from npm:

npm install opencode-auto-continue

How It Works

When an OpenCode session emits a session.idle event, the plugin automatically injects a continuation message (default: "continue") to resume the agent. This is useful for multi-step tasks where the agent pauses between steps waiting for user input.

Key behaviors:

• Listens for session.idle events
• Resolves the last assistant's agent and model to maintain context continuity
• Respects a cooldown period between consecutive injections
• Caps the maximum number of consecutive auto-continues to prevent infinite loops
• Resets the consecutive counter when the user sends a real (non-continue) message
• Cleans up state when sessions are deleted

Configuration

Create .opencode/auto-continue.json (or .jsonc) in your project root:

{
  "enabled": true,
  "message": "continue",
  "cooldown_ms": 10000,
  "max_consecutive": 5
}

| Option | Type | Default | Description | |---|---|---|---| | enabled | boolean | false | Enable/disable the plugin. Must be explicitly enabled. | | message | string | "continue" | The text injected as a user message | | cooldown_ms | number | 10000 | Minimum ms between consecutive injections | | max_consecutive | number | 5 | Max consecutive auto-continues before stopping |
