Original Pull Request: https://github.com/anomalyco/opencode/pull/7179

State: closed
Merged: No


Add detailed documentation analyzing how OpenCode handles tool and agent cancellation/interruption:

  • Core architecture using AbortSignal
  • Complete signal propagation chain from HTTP API to tools
  • Detailed analysis of each tool's abort handling:
    • Bash: process tree killing
    • Task: cascade cancellation
    • WebFetch/Search: signal merging
    • Edit/Write: permission-stage cancellation
    • Read/Glob/Grep: fast sync operations
  • Permission system integration
  • Messages returned to the model
  • Code location index with file paths and line numbers
  • Flow diagrams and best practices

This documentation helps understand the unified cancellation mechanism and how each component responds to user interruptions.
