Description

What happened:

  • When an AI response contains a web link and I click it, the OpenCode desktop window navigates to the site inside the app webview and the main UI is replaced. The embedded page has no browser chrome (no back/forward), so I’m stuck unless I restart/navigate manually.

What I expected:

  • External links should open in the OS default browser so the OpenCode UI is never replaced. Same-origin links should continue to work normally inside the app.

Environment:

  • OpenCode Desktop version: 1.1.36)
  • OS: macOS 15.6.1 (24G90)

Proposed fix (optional, brief):

  • Intercept anchor clicks for external http(s) URLs and open them via OS default browser; don’t intercept same-origin.

Plugins

No response

OpenCode version

1.1.36

Steps to reproduce

- Steps to reproduce:

  1. Open OpenCode desktop app
  2. Get an AI message that includes an https://... link (e.g. “https://example.com”)
  3. Click the link
  4. Observe the OpenCode UI is replaced by the website inside the app window, with no browser navigation controls. Users might get stuck.

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

Yup. Confirmed. The only thing I found is to close it and restart it, unfortunately.
