Description

I think it's mainly been GPT-5.2 Codex sessions all via OpenCode Zen. It'll stall out, and start retrying. I have seen the retry counter go into the hundreds.

Interrupting it, and simply typing "continue" immediately kicks it into working again. This has happened more than once, across different versions - so it feels like the retry logic simply doesn't work correctly.

Plugins

none

OpenCode version

1.1.48

Steps to reproduce

No idea, have a long running GPT-5.2 codex session and wait for it to stall out. Perhaps a trigger would be a flaky internet connection?

Screenshot and/or share link

I don't think it shows anything useful, but here it is anyway: https://opncd.ai/share/64GGYFhe

Operating System

Ubuntu 24.04

Terminal

Windows Terminal -> ssh -> tmux

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

  • #9038: Provider 520 errors surface as MessageAbortedError with no diagnostics (zero tokens, repeated retries) — similar issue with provider errors causing repeated retries and stalling behavior
  • #10088: Zen Upgrade: All models getting stuck/unable to complete sessions — reports sessions hanging indefinitely with Zen models, which matches your GPT-5.2 Codex stalling behavior

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

It did it again:

Once again, esc esc to interrupt, typing continue, hitting enter, and it happily keeps going.
