[FEATURE]: Make session list limit configurable (currently hardcoded to 100) #17389
Closed as not planned
Description
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
The session list limit is hardcoded to 100 in Session.list() (packages/opencode/src/session/index.ts: const limit = input?.limit ?? 100). Once you accumulate more than 100 main sessions, older ones silently disappear from the TUI and opencode session list. This makes it look like sessions were deleted when they're just past the cutoff.
What makes it worse: subagent sessions (with parent_id) are stored in the same table. In my project I have 735 total sessions but only 98 are main sessions — the rest are subagent. If the limit ever counted those mixed in, the effective visible window would be even smaller.
What I'd like:
- A config key (e.g.
session.listLimit) to control how many sessions are shown - Gating the list limit for main agent sessions only so it doesn't factor in subagent ones
Environment: Windows 11, OpenCode 1.2.25

This issue might be a duplicate of existing issues. Please check:
Session.list()hardcoded limit of 100, with subagent sessions filling the quota and hiding older root sessions from the TUI/sessionspicker/sessionspicker only shows recent sessions due to the same limit issueBoth issues describe the identical problem you've encountered, with #16270 including a detailed root cause analysis and proposed fix.

I have this if you want it: ariane-emory#177
I have been using it for a couple of months and it will have been working perfectly for me.
