TODO tasks hang indefinitely and never transition to completed state even after underlying work finishes #22288
Description
Description
When using OpenCode’s TODO feature to track progress on multi‑step operations, the TODO items remain in a pending/hanging state and never get marked as completed or closed. This occurs even after the associated tasks have fully finished and new work has started. The UI continues to show the TODO as active, which makes it difficult to trust the current status of the work and clutters the interface with stale items.
Steps to Reproduce
- Invoke OpenCode to perform a task that generates one or more TODO items (e.g., a multi‑file refactor, codebase search, or a long‑running code generation).
- Observe the TODO list populate with specific action items.
- Allow the underlying operations to finish naturally (wait for terminal output / file changes to confirm completion).
- Check the TODO panel.
Expected Behavior
- Once the corresponding work for a TODO item is completed, its status should update automatically to completed or closed.
- The TODO should be removed from the active list or visually distinguished as finished.
- Subsequent new actions should create fresh TODO entries rather than leaving the old ones hanging.
Actual Behavior
- TODO items remain stuck in a "pending" or "in‑progress" state.
- They do not transition to completed nor do they disappear.
- This behavior is consistent across multiple runs and different types of tasks.
Environment
OpenCode Version: [e.g., v1.4.3 on Windows]
Additional Context / Logs
This issue significantly impacts the usability of the TODO feature for tracking real‑time progress. It would be great if the TODO lifecycle could be tied more tightly to the actual completion events of the underlying tasks.

Unqualified human here. The issue still persists and the stale todo lists can only be removed by starting a new session. That makes long context windows sort of "useless". I find it epic that a dev who makes opencode (a tool to support people in working with AI/LLM) rejects a bug report simply because it appears to be written with AI assistance.
