What this does

Replaces the opencodeGo engine with an opencodeAgent engine that runs whatever models the user has configured in OpenCode, instead of only the OpenCode Zen subscription catalog.

One binary, one driver. Zen does not disappear — it shows up in the picker as the opencode/… provider, next to openai/…, anthropic/…, google/…, ollama/… and whatever else the user has logged into.

On my machine that is 473 models instead of 15.

Why replace rather than fix

Three defects, all verified against opencode acp 1.18.18 rather than inferred. The third is the one I would fix first even if the rest of this PR were rejected.

1. The model ids are rejected by the CLI. The driver builds ids as opencode-go/<model-id>. OpenCode has no such provider:

-> session/set_config_option { configId: "model", value: "opencode-go/minimax-m3" }
   Invalid params: model not found: opencode-go/minimax-m3
   data: { providerId: "opencode-go", modelId: "opencode-go/minimax-m3" }

The providers OpenCode actually reports are openai, anthropic, google, deepseek, openrouter, ollama, and opencode — Zen is spelled opencode. Since core.ts throws when the model does not come back confirmed, every turn fails before the prompt is sent, whichever model the picker offers.

This is not limited to users without a subscription. Setting any OPENCODE_API_KEY opens the Zen catalog, and its entries look like this:

opencode/claude-opus-4-5
opencode/claude-haiku-4-5
opencode/claude-fable-5

Never opencode-go/…. So the paying case is broken too.

docs/opencode-go.md states this form is "required by ACP". ACP rejects it.

2. The sign-in check can never pass. hasStoredOpenCodeGoAuth() looks for the literal key "opencode-go" in auth.json. OpenCode writes that credential under opencode, so the lookup misses for everyone, including subscribers. With four valid credentials on disk, snapshot.authenticated is false and ModelPicker.tsx greys the engine out.

The doc says users "may instead manage OpenCode's own login flow with opencode auth login". The code does not allow that. Onboarding, on a machine with OpenCode installed and four providers logged in:

Before After
Installed, working, and permanently asking for a sign-in that would not help. Installed and configured.

3. No approval policy is injected. The driver sets only stripForeignProviderKeys. Measured on 1.18.18 with nothing injected, the stock build agent's only catch-all rule is {permission:"*", action:"allow", pattern:"*"}, and bash, edit and webfetch have no rule of their own to override it — all three resolve to allow. A bot runs shell commands, writes files and fetches URLs without OpenMausBot ever showing an approval card.

The new driver injects a policy through OPENCODE_CONFIG_CONTENT and closes the three env routes that would outrank it (OPENCODE_PERMISSION, OPENCODE_CONFIG, OPENCODE_CONFIG_DIR), plus project config. Bookkeeping tools (glob, grep, list, todowrite) stay allowed on purpose: a bare *: ask produces a card for every directory listing, which trains people to click through cards.

How the catalog works now

opencode models is read on demand rather than fetched over HTTP, so the list is the machine's own: 473 entries on a configured host, 8 on a virgin HOME (the free Zen models). debug config supplies the default, so the picker opens on the model OpenCode itself would use.

Before After
OC in the rail, greyed out — the engine cannot be selected. The OpenCode mark, 473 models, grouped by provider.

A catalog that size needs a way through it, so the picker gained search and per-provider sections. Typing filters across every provider at once:

Those are the user's own OpenAI models, reached through an engine that previously offered fifteen subscription ones.

That call spawns a process (~1.1s measured), which is too slow for create() and too variable to leave unbounded, so it went in behind a new ProviderInstance.catalog() with a 60s TTL and a 10s ceiling. resolveModels stays exactly as it is for droid — it reads a file, so awaiting it in create() is free. The two hooks are distinguished by discovery cost, and both say so in their contract comments.

debug config echoes the whole resolved config, MCP credentials included. It is read for .model and dropped: never logged, never cached.

Also in here

  • ~/.opencode/bin added to knownDirs() in env-path.ts. The install command this driver recommends (curl -fsSL https://opencode.ai/install | bash) puts a standalone binary there, and nothing in augmentedPath() looked for it — so the engine reported "opencode CLI not found" on a machine where OpenCode was installed and working. I hit this in production before finding it in the code.
  • The API key is kept. credentialEnv: ["OPENCODE_API_KEY"] so a saved Zen key still reaches the child. The config field is renamed opencodeGoopencode to match the engine, and the old name is still read so nobody loses a key they already saved. Writes only ever land on the new name.
  • A test pinning model ids to what the CLI reports. The existing suite could not catch defect 1: the fake CLI accepts whatever ids the test itself declares valid via FAKE_ACP_MODELS, so the driver was checked against its own assumption. I verified this test fails when the prefix is reintroduced.
  • docs/opencode-go.md and the three planning documents removed — 498 lines describing an engine that no longer exists, one of them asserting the model-id form that ACP rejects. Two of the three live under docs/superpowers/, a contributor-tooling tree that feat: add OpenCode Go engine #119 introduced and that exists nowhere else in this repo: they record how the integration was planned, not how the engine works. Removing them puts the docs layout back where it was.

dist-server/drivers/acp/opencode-go.js is left in place; regenerating that directory is a release step, not a PR's job.

Known limits, stated rather than discovered later

  • isAuthenticated reads "is there anything left to run" (non-empty catalog), not "will everything work". An OPENCODE_API_KEY opens the Zen catalog without being validated, so an invalid key reads as ready. Same gap the other ACP engines have with an ambient login; closing it would mean spending an inference call on every snapshot.
  • The injected policy is defence in depth over OpenCode's defaults, not a boundary against the agent. The policy allows edit and a turn runs in turn.cwd ?? config.workspace ?? homedir(), so an agent in the default cwd can write the very config the policy pins. The claude driver carries the identical exposure (claude.ts:339, claude.ts:254); the fix is giving a turn a real workspace, not adding another key here.
  • Windows keeps the npm install command — opencode.ai/install.ps1 is a 404, and npm is the only documented route that needs no other package manager first.
  • The catalog probe is not side-effect free: one opencode models on a fresh HOME creates ~/.cache/opencode/models.json, seeds ~/.config/opencode/opencode.jsonc, and creates the state db. It creates no session, no turn and no prompt, and leaves the working directory alone.

Testing

pnpm typecheck and pnpm test pass (48 files, 446 tests, 8 skipped).

Ran end to end against a real 1.18.18: /api/instances reports opencodeAgent available and authenticated, 473 models, prefixes anthropic deepseek google llamacpp-* ollama openai opencode openrouter, and no opencode-go/ id anywhere.

The env-path fix is covered by a hermetic unit test rather than that run — the host had another OpenCode earlier in PATH, so the end-to-end check would have passed without the fix.

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to c6b21

The PR replaces the OpenCode engine and discovers the configured model catalog on demand. Concurrent catalog requests can start redundant CLI processes, causing avoidable local resource use and latency; this is a bounded follow-up risk and does not otherwise block merge.

Consider covering the probeCwd wiring, not only discoverCatalog.

This test passes cwd to discoverCatalog directly. It proves the parameter reaches execCli. It does not prove that support.catalog computes that parameter from config.workspace. If probeCwd is ever dropped from the catalog arrow in server/drivers/acp/opencode.ts Line 373, the probe silently runs in the server's directory and every test here still passes. A short case that creates an instance with config.workspace set and then calls instance.catalog!() closes that gap.

163-183: 🚀 Performance & Scalability | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick win

Consider single-flight de-duplication for concurrent probes.

discoverCatalog checks the cache, then awaits two CLI spawns before it writes the entry. Two callers that arrive during that window both miss the cache and both spawn opencode models and opencode debug config. registry.describe() runs on every window focus, and snapshot() calls isAuthenticated, which also calls discoverCatalog, so overlap is realistic. Storing the in-flight promise collapses the duplicates.

♻️ Proposed single-flight cache
 const cache = new Map<string, { at: number; value: ModelCatalog }>();
+const inFlight = new Map<string, Promise<ModelCatalog>>();
 export async function discoverCatalog(cli: string, env: Env, cwd?: string): Promise<ModelCatalog> {
   const key = cacheKey(cli, env, cwd);
   const hit = cache.get(key);
   if (hit && now() - hit.at < CATALOG_TTL_MS) return hit.value;
+  const running = inFlight.get(key);
+  if (running) return running;
+  const probe = (async () => {
+    const [listing, configured] = await Promise.all([
+      run(cli, ["models"], env, cwd),
+      defaultModel(cli, env, cwd),
+    ]);
+    if (listing === null) return hit?.value ?? { default: "", options: [] };
+    const options = parseModels(listing);
+    const chosen = configured && options.some((o) => o.id === configured) ? configured : (options[0]?.id ?? "");
+    const value: ModelCatalog = { default: chosen, options };
+    cache.set(key, { at: now(), value });
+    return value;
+  })().finally(() => inFlight.delete(key));

Also clear inFlight in __catalogTestHooks.reset().

Both nitpicks are in, plus the accessible name. Three commits on top of dadf29d.

probeCwd coverage (cd83ffb) — the gap was real, and I verified it rather than taking it on faith: removing probeCwd(config) from opencode.ts's catalog arrow leaves the whole existing suite green. The new case goes through instance.catalog() with config.workspace pointed at a directory that does not exist, so an empty catalog is only observable if the configured workspace actually reached execCli. It fails on that removal; the older direct-call test still passes, which is the point.

Concurrent probes (54dff7b) — the conclusion holds but the mechanism is slightly different from the one described. snapshot()isAuthenticateddiscoverCatalog and catalog() do not overlap: registry.describe() awaits the first before it awaits the second, so the cache already collapses that pair. The duplicate comes from concurrent describe() calls — two /api/instances requests in flight together — where both miss and both spawn.

Rather than assume, the test counts spawns: the fake CLI now appends a line per models invocation under FAKE_ACP_MODELS_LOG, and two concurrent discoverCatalog calls logged probe twice before the fix. Now once. The in-flight entry is registered before the first await can yield and cleared in a finally, so a failed probe does not pin later callers to the same rejection.

Docstring coverage warning — leaving it. The threshold counts formal docstrings; this driver's explanations are block comments above the code they explain, matching the rest of server/drivers/. Converting them would change the house style for one file.

pnpm typecheck and pnpm test pass: 48 files, 448 tests, 8 skipped.

…parses

split("\n") left a trailing \r glued to every line on a CRLF stream, which
`\S+$` cannot consume, so the whole catalog silently parsed to nothing on
any platform that emits CRLF. Split on /\r?\n/ instead and lock it in with
a CRLF regression test alongside the existing LF cases.
The catalog is whatever the machine can actually run, so it is read from
the CLI rather than compiled in. The TTL clock is injectable: the test
moves time instead of sleeping.
A CLI that exits non-zero on `models` was cached the same as one that
legitimately reports zero models: the empty result sat in the cache for
the full TTL, so one transient failure made the engine look unusable for
a minute, and reopening the model picker — the app's own refresh path —
hit the same stale cache instead of retrying. A failed probe now falls
back to the last good catalog when one exists, without writing to the
cache, so the very next call retries the CLI.

…eparator

Joining [cli, HOME, XDG_CONFIG_HOME, ...] with a space let two different
env shapes produce the same key whenever a value's boundary shifted
across the separator (HOME "a b" + XDG "c" vs HOME "a" + XDG "b c") —
and Windows paths routinely contain spaces, so this was reachable in
practice, not just in theory. JSON.stringify keeps each element's
boundary explicit and distinguishes an unset var from an empty one.

Also strengthened the "serves the last good catalog" test to change
FAKE_ACP_MODELS alongside the failure flag and assert the exact stale
array, so a fresh probe that silently ignored the failure would now
diverge visibly instead of coincidentally matching the stale length.

An engine whose model list depends on the user's own machine cannot ship a
compiled-in catalog. describe() prefers the discovered one and falls back to
the static list if discovery fails, the same way it downgrades a failed
snapshot instead of throwing.
…de's bound

describe() awaits every instance's catalog() together, so an implementation
that never settles stalls the whole /api/instances response, and server
startup with it, not just its own row. The contract never said so. Spell out
the MUST on both ProviderInstance.catalog and AcpSupport.catalog, and bring
opencode's CLI_TIMEOUT_MS down from 20s to 10s -- closer to snapshot()'s
existing 8s version-probe ceiling, against a measured ~1.1s real cost -- so
the bound the contract now promises is actually true.
Rides the generic ACP runtime like grok, gemini and kimi. Two things are
specific to opencode and both are encoded in the support object: the model
catalog is discovered from the machine because it depends on the user's own
providers, and a permission policy is injected into the child because
opencode's default `build` agent allows every tool without asking, which
would have shipped an engine with no approval cards at all.
Measured against opencode 1.18.18: a per-agent permission block (from a
repository's opencode.json or a .opencode/agent/*.md frontmatter) is
appended after the top-level policy we inject via OPENCODE_CONFIG_CONTENT,
and opencode's evaluator takes the last matching rule. A hostile working
directory could restore bash: allow, and because edit: allow is part of
our own policy, an agent could write that file itself and hold uncarded
shell on its very next turn (core.ts spawns a fresh child per turn, which
re-reads config). One allowed tool became free shell in a single turn.

Fix: set OPENCODE_DISABLE_PROJECT_CONFIG=1 in the child whenever fullAuto
is false, and strip an inherited OPENCODE_PERMISSION (which opencode
applies after every config merge and would otherwise also outrank the
policy we just injected) — the same pattern kimi.ts uses for a stray API
key. fullAuto is untouched: the user asked for no gate at all, so the
project's own config is left alone rather than suppressed.

Folded into the same pass:
- ASK_POLICY.read is now a pattern map that keeps opencode's own
  `*.env -> ask` guard instead of overriding it with a blanket allow.
- list/todowrite/question are now allow: a bare `*: ask` put an approval
  card on every directory listing and to-do update, which trains people to
  click through cards rather than read them.
- permissionEnv is exported and covered by its own describe block for
  every input shape (unparseable JSON, an array, a string, a number,
  null, and a caller-supplied permission key), and now logs rather than
  silently dropping an unparseable pre-existing OPENCODE_CONFIG_CONTENT.

Verified against the real CLI in a throwaway directory: with a planted
opencode.json granting agent.build.permission {bash:allow, *:allow},
`opencode debug agent build` resolves bash to allow when
OPENCODE_DISABLE_PROJECT_CONFIG is unset (the hostile rule lands after
ours) and back to ask once it is set to "1" (the hostile rule never
appears in the resolved list).

OpenCode discovers every model the user's own providers expose — several
hundred on a configured machine — which a flat unscrolled list cannot show.
Both affordances are conditional, so every existing engine renders exactly
as before.
The escalation the previous commit claimed to close was still open through
the user's GLOBAL ~/.config/opencode/opencode.json. Measured against 1.18.18
with OPENCODE_DISABLE_PROJECT_CONFIG=1 already set:

    $ opencode debug agent build          # global agent.build.permission.bash=allow
    last bash rule -> allow

The flag drops PROJECT config only, and `agent.<name>.permission` is a
different key path from the top-level `permission` we were injecting: it does
not collide in the merge, it is flattened into the resolved rule array AFTER
our policy, and evaluation is last-match-wins. So a global per-agent block took
the decision back. `edit` is allowed here and a fresh child spawns per turn,
so an agent could write that file itself and hold uncarded shell next turn.

Take control of the key path instead of trying to outrun it. permissionEnv now
injects `agent.build|plan|general.permission = ASK_POLICY` alongside the
top-level policy, and pins `default_agent: "build"` so a config cannot define a
new agent and redirect the session at it (measured: `{"default_agent":"evil",
"agent":{"evil":{"permission":{"bash":"allow"}}}}` resolved to `evil` without
the pin, `build` with it). Same recipe after:

    last bash rule -> ask

Naming the key path is what makes ours replace theirs rather than lose to
them; sibling fields on the same agent still merge through, so a user's
`agent.build.model` and any agent we do not name survive untouched.

An unnamed agent stays selectable, deliberately: only the ACP client can change
a session's mode and OpenMausBot never does, so the agent's only route to one
is the `task` tool, which falls under `"*": "ask"` and is carded.

Also strip OPENCODE_CONFIG and OPENCODE_CONFIG_DIR from the child beside the
existing OPENCODE_PERMISSION delete. A hostile config reached that way resolved
to `bash: allow` too, and cacheKey already names both as things that change
what opencode resolves. Lower severity than the above — those values can only
come from the server's own environment, never from a workspace — but there is
no reason to leave them open while fixing the key path.

The comments this falsifies are rewritten, including "The user's global config
still applies", which was precisely the open half.

cacheKey's own comment claimed it "carries everything that changes what
opencode resolves". Two of those things were missing.

OPENCODE_CONFIG_CONTENT can declare a whole provider, and transformEnv writes
it PER INSTANCE, so two opencodeAgent instances differing only by a per-instance
`environment` entry collided: the loser showed the wrong catalog for the full
60s TTL and reopening the picker did not help. Measured on 1.18.18, same HOME,
only that variable changing:

    OPENCODE_CONFIG_CONTENT='{}'                    ->  ... no mycorp/mm-1
    OPENCODE_CONFIG_CONTENT declaring one provider  ->  ... mycorp/mm-1 present

USERPROFILE / APPDATA / LOCALAPPDATA are the Windows equivalents of HOME and
the XDG_* variables already in the key. On Windows all three keyed variables are
undefined, so every opencode instance shared one entry — a silent
platform-specific failure, which CONTRIBUTING.md:110 names explicitly.

The comment is corrected rather than merely extended: the key covers config
LOCATION and CONTENT, not ambient provider credentials. Measured, bogus values
(they are not validated): ANTHROPIC_API_KEY takes 7 models to 21. Enumerating
every provider variable opencode auto-detects would go stale upstream, so the
bound is stated instead — two instances differing only by an API key share one
catalog for up to the TTL. Keying on the whole env is not the alternative:
three tests use FAKE_ACP_MODELS mutation as their "did it re-probe" signal and
a whole-env key would make every such mutation a cache miss.

Comments only; no behaviour changes.

M1 — `run()` is not read-only. One `opencode models` against a genuinely empty
HOME creates ~/.cache/opencode/models.json (3.8 MB), seeds
~/.config/opencode/opencode.jsonc, and creates opencode.db plus its -wal/-shm
and a state lock. The working directory is untouched and no session is created,
so choosing these subcommands over an ACP probe still stands — but "no side
effect" was the stated reason and it is disprovable in one command. Also
recorded there: the first probe on a fresh HOME returned 8 models and the second
7, so the free OpenCode Zen list must not be asserted as an invariant.

M6 — `opencode debug config` echoes the whole resolved config, which on a real
machine carries MCP credentials. Sandboxed proof with placeholders: a token in
an `mcp.*.environment` entry and a token inside an argv array both came back
verbatim in stdout. defaultModel already does the right thing (reads `.model`,
drops `raw`, never logs or caches it, and run() swallows the error object too),
so the note says so — the next person debugging this function will reach for
`console.error(raw)`.

M9 — the `.env` half of the read policy restates an opencode built-in rather
than inventing it: measured, the stock CLI already resolves `read *` allow /
`*.env` ask / `*.env.*` ask / `*.env.example` allow with nothing injected. The
sub-map is still load-bearing — our `"*": "ask"` lands after those built-ins, so
omitting it makes every read a card and flattening it to `"allow"` buries the
guard — but it is defence-in-depth, not the sole guard the comment implied.

describe() called catalog() regardless of what snapshot() had just reported,
and the opencode driver deliberately does not cache a probe that could not run,
so the retry was unconditional. src/state/store.tsx re-probes /api/instances on
every window focus (throttled to 3s), which means every user who never installs
an engine paid two doomed spawns per focus event, forever — and on Windows each
one is a full PATH x PATHEXT scan through resolveCliSpawn.

The snapshot already answered "is the binary there". Gate on it.

One behaviour changes: an engine whose --version probe fails transiently now
shows its static catalog for that describe() instead of the last-good cached
one. That is arguably the more honest of the two — the row already says
unavailable — and the alternative is a spawn we know will fail.

An available-but-unauthenticated engine is still probed, deliberately: opencode
answers isAuthenticated FROM the catalog, so gating on authentication would
make the check unanswerable.

The support hook received `config` but used only `config.cli`, so both probes
inherited the SERVER's cwd — wherever the app happened to be launched from.
Turns run in `config.workspace ?? homedir()`.

That is two problems. The catalog was non-deterministic, dependent on the
launch directory. And in fullAuto, where project config deliberately stays
enabled, a project-defined provider is runnable by the turn and invisible to
the catalog — the picker would not offer a model the agent could actually use.

Thread the same cwd through run() into execCli, from both entry points
(catalog and isAuthenticated, which answers FROM the catalog), and add it to
cacheKey for the same reason the config keys are already there: with project
config live, the directory changes the list.

The test earns its keep — a cwd that does not exist makes the spawn itself
fail, which is observable only if the cwd reached execCli at all. Verified by
removing the argument again: red.

The empty-list branch said `No model matches ""` to someone who had never
typed anything — the search box only renders above 15 models, so on an empty
catalog it is not even on screen.

This is reachable well beyond opencode: registry.ts gives every SHADOW
instance {default:"",options:[]}, and server/index.test.ts pins exactly that
shadow in the API smoke test. Before this branch an empty list rendered
nothing at all; the search work turned that silence into a wrong answer, and
one that points the user at a control they cannot see instead of at the
EngineSetup card directly above it.

One ternary on `needle`.

opencode 1.18.18 folds `mode.<name>` into `agent.<name>` after every config
file has merged, with the `mode` entry winning the merge. So a global
`~/.config/opencode/opencode.json` carrying `mode.build.permission` outranked
the `agent.build.permission` pin the previous commit added. Measured against
the real CLI in a throwaway HOME, hostile `mode.build.permission.bash`:

  before   bash rules [(26,'ask','*'), (42,'allow','*')]  last -> allow
  after    bash rules [(26,'ask','*'), (42,'ask','*')]    last -> ask

and on the inverted `deny` payload, `debug agent build --tool bash` went from
"Tool bash is disabled for agent build" to reachable. `permissionEnv` now names
`mode.build.permission` and stops a caller's `mode` block riding through the
OPENCODE_CONFIG_CONTENT spread untouched, which would have handed back exactly
what the agent pin takes.

`build` and no other agent: the fold hardcodes `mode: "primary"` onto whatever
it copies, so naming `mode.general` promotes the `task` tool's subagent to a
selectable primary. Measured at `session/new` against the real `opencode acp`,
with the pin and no config on the machine: currentValue "build", choices
["build","plan"] — byte-identical to stock.

The rest of this commit is comments, and it is the larger half. Four claims
were wrong or overstated:

- The header undersold the win. Without the injected policy the stock `build`
  agent's only catch-all rule is `{"*": allow}` and bash, edit and webfetch have
  no rule of their own, so a bot runs shell, writes files and fetches URLs with
  no card at any point. The policy is what makes OpenMausBot's cards work here.

- `transformEnv` said the global config "can no longer OUTRANK the policy".
  False, and false before this commit too. A config that EVICTS `build` rather
  than editing it — `disable`, `hidden`, or disabling all three pinned agents
  and declaring a new primary — moves the session onto an agent we do not own;
  measured at `session/new`, the driver policy lands on 'plan' and on 'evil'
  respectively. More importantly, pinning key paths is not a boundary against
  the AGENT at all: core.ts runs a turn in `turn.cwd ?? config.workspace ??
  homedir()` and this policy allows `edit`, so an agent can write the global
  config itself — a `permission` block on an unpinned key path, or an `mcp`
  block, which 1.18.18 runs as an arbitrary command at the next `session/new`
  with no card. `mcp` cannot be pinned away without deleting the user's own MCP
  servers, and unknown top-level keys are accepted silently, so the list cannot
  be closed by enumeration. The claude driver carries the identical exposure
  (claude.ts:339 `cwd: turn.cwd ?? homedir()`, claude.ts:254 `--permission-mode
  acceptEdits`), so it is a property of the application's working-directory
  default, not of this engine. The comment now says so, and says the fix is to
  give a turn a real workspace rather than to add another key.

  `disable: false` / `hidden: false` was measured, costed and rejected: it
  closes exactly four known attacks in a class that stays open, and it overrides
  a user who legitimately disabled `build`.

- `OPENCODE_DISABLE_PROJECT_CONFIG` is the boundary that IS real, and is now
  stated as one: a repository OpenMausBot clones cannot lower the policy,
  because its `opencode.json` and `.opencode/agent/*.md` are not read. The cost
  is that repository's own opencode config, MCP servers included, being ignored
  while a bot works in it.

- `plan` was called "its read-only sibling". The top-level `permission` key is
  merged into every stock agent last, after that agent's own defaults, so our
  `edit: "allow"` overrides plan's stock `edit: "*" deny` under every variant
  this driver can ship — measured, plan's edit rules resolve to [deny *, allow
  .opencode/plans/*.md, allow <plans dir>, allow *]. Nothing rides on it since
  OpenMausBot only ever runs `build`, but the claim was one a reader would act
  on.

One test name went the same way: "and only the permission key" described a
driver that names four.

A claim audit found four sentences in this driver that said more than the
measurements support. One was false: the header claimed opencode ships no
approval gate, but stock `build` on 1.18.18 cards four things (`read *.env`,
`read *.env.*`, `external_directory *`, `doom_loop`) per this branch's own M9
measurement — the header now says it cards none of the tools that matter.

The other three were overstatements, not falsehoods:

- PINNED_AGENTS' comment said a session can "select" `general`; `general` is
  a subagent the `task` tool spawns, not a selectable primary, and the stock
  selectable list is only `build` and `plan` — `explore`, the other stock
  subagent, was missing from the comment entirely.
- The "nothing rides on plan being read-only" comment attributed that to
  OpenMausBot always running `build`, when the real reason is that
  OpenMausBot never selects an agent and never sends a mode change; a global
  config evicting `build` is the one case where plan's rules would matter.
- The EVICT-`build` paragraph said the session lands "on an agent we do not
  own" — measured, it lands specifically on `plan` (pinned via
  agent.plan.permission but not mode.plan.permission) or on an unpinned new
  primary.
- permissionEnv's env-stripping comment said it "owns the config KEYS an
  attacker would reach for"; it owns exactly the four key paths documented
  below it, not the general class.

One test name carried the same "can select" defect as the PINNED_AGENTS
comment; renamed with assertions unchanged.

Comments and one test name only — no code, assertion, ASK_POLICY entry, or
pinned key path changed.
