Feature hasn't been suggested before.

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

Describe the enhancement you want to request

Right now if you look at the doc command it opens up a link to https://opencode.ai/docs, and I have to search to find what I need. I can ask opencode to do this for me, but it has to fetch each page and has to rely on links for discovery.

What I would love is a command / skill / agent / cli arg that lets me ask questions about opencode in opencode. Such questions like

I am storing multiple agent files in ~/.config/opencode and each time the agent tries to read it asks permissions, how would to make this allowed by default?

or

what is a skill and how are they different from commands?

For this to work best, it would need the docs shipped along side the cli and the cli would let the normal agentic search find what docs matter.

This feature request is similar to the Ask agent in Aider project, a agent specifically for asking questions on how to use Aider.

There is a related ticket to add llms.txt support, with that the agent could fetch llms.txt and use that to find what it needs, but this process is still slow and doesn't let it do Grep command so still limited.

For this to work best, it would need the docs shipped along side the cli and the cli would let the normal agentic search find what docs matter. This feature request is similar to the `Ask` agent in Aider project, a agent specifically for asking questions on how to use Aider. There is a related ticket to add llms.txt support, with that the agent *could* fetch llms.txt and use that to find what it needs, but this process is still slow and doesn't let it do `Grep` command so still limited.
