Originally created by @jacekpoplawski on GitHub (Jan 31, 2026).

Originally assigned to: @rekram1-node on GitHub.

Description

I expect /new to clear the current conversation context and start a new session within the same project.

After running /new, OpenCode does NOT automatically load AGENTS.md. I have to explicitly ask it to read the file again.

If this is expected behavior?

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

  • #3031: Model in BUILD mode does not have enough context to continue after compaction (related context loss after session events)

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

if u have:

project:
|- AGENTS.md

and you run opencode in project

then AGENTS.md should ALWAYS be included in the system prompt sent to the model

in that case maybe it's a problem with the model (GLM 4.7 Flash on llama.cpp, but it does great in general, I use it with opencode for many days now), I observe that after /new when I talk to opencode, model skips all the instructions from AGENTS.md, I will check other models, thanks

@TheBlueSky commented on GitHub (Feb 1, 2026):

I notice the same (similar?) issue. I am on the latest version of OpenCode, and opened it in the root directory of the repo where I have AGENTS.md files:

  • Started a new session on a repo that I have never used OpenCode on.
  • Selected a model; in my case it was kimi-k2.5-free.
  • Asked it to plan a change.
  • It reported that it read the relevant files, and AGENTS.md was not one of them.

Not sure however whether the file is expected to show on the list of read files, or how to verify that is read.

@bakaburg1 commented on GitHub (Feb 2, 2026):

it could be useful to have a visual clue in the TUI and GUIs of what files the context is made of. Probably we should just trust that AGENTS are parsed in every time, but seeing would make us feel better, I believe. Cursor and copilot do this

This is something I've noticed as well. Mostly I see the file not read, but rarely I've seen it inspected. Can't figure out what makes OpenCode read it without me explicitly asking for it.

Okay when I say "read" i just mean it's included in context, like the global and project root ones are in the system prompt, but yeah having more transparency around the context is a good idea that we should have.

The desktop app actually has this, just haven't done it in tui yet

I had this issue as well, but since updating to 1.1.49 I cannot reproduce it anymore. Now it has the AGENTS.md-file from the start.

Same issue unfortunately, switching models or even adding an instruction in opencode's config to always read the agents.md file doesnt work
