Description

I have the following front matter for a markdown subagent:

description: Develop a detailed plan to implement based on the user's requirements.
mode: subagent
model: github-copilot/gpt-5.2-codex

tools:
    write:
        "*": false
        plans/*.md: true
        specs/*.md: true
    edit:
        "*": false
        specs/*.md: ask
    bash: ask
    question: allow

When I try to launch opencode I get the following errors:

↳ Invalid input: expected boolean, received object tools.write
↳ Invalid input: expected boolean, received object tools.edit
↳ Invalid input: expected boolean, received string tools.bash
↳ Invalid input: expected boolean, received string tools.question

This issue might be a duplicate of existing issues. Please check:

  • #8114: Task tool permission override no longer works for nested sub-agents
  • #6892: MCP tool permissions not working after migration from tools to permissions
  • #6856: Should we actually implement the new granular permissions in .md agent files?
  • #5701: AGENT.md is invalid without debug information
  • #7810: Opencode will not launch if you set Agent permissions as True/False instead of Allow/Deny

These issues all stem from the same root cause - incomplete support for nested permission objects in agent markdown frontmatter after the permission system migration in PR #6319.

Feel free to ignore if your specific case isn't addressed by these issues.

I realized I need to use permission not tools however after changing to:

description: Develop a detailed plan to implement based on the user's requirements.
mode: subagent
model: github-copilot/gpt-5.2-codex
temperature: 0.3
permission:
    write:
        "*": false
        plans/*.md: true
        specs/*.md: true
    edit:
        "*": false
        specs/*.md: ask
    bash: ask
    question: allow

I now get the error:

↳ Invalid input permission

Realized I need an s on the permission bit, I think the documentation might need an update: https://opencode.ai/docs/permissions#agents

Apologies, and thanks for making an awesome tool

why use s? the source code point out the agent md format should be permission

When I had permission OpenCode wouldn't open, but when I had permissions then OpenCode would open

@MirkoRischke commented on GitHub (Feb 3, 2026):

The reason is that permission is a property of opencode. When you specify this attribute, its syntax is verified. When you specified permissions, you used an attribute that is not known to opencode. In this case, it'll just pass this property to the model provider as described in the docs here.
