[FEATURE]: Add an option to set the terminal window title #4539
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
At least when using a terminal in Linux, the title can be set using some escape characters, like printf '\033]0;The title\007'.
When having multiple terminals with multiple running instances of OpenCode, it is sometimes hard to identify one instance.
It would be nice if OpenCode could set the window title to, for example, the session name.
In an ideal world, one could even use some sort of template, for example some placeholders could be:
%n: Session name%m: Current model being used%a: Current agent running, if any%s: Status: IDLE or WORKING
Then you could configure something like "set_title": false or "set_title": "[%s] %n (%m)".

Oh, interesting, I guess I have to look at how plugins work.

can't find anything in the plugins spec to do it.

Was this somehow implemented? I see my terminal window title being updated in recent releases. I get a title like
OC | <session title>. And in the commands window, I see under "System" the option to "Disable terminal title".bogorad commentedon Feb 12, 2026
nope, we discussed it on discord.
llucax commentedon Feb 12, 2026
OK, I'm really confused now. Searching the code I even find mentions to this feature.
llucax commentedon Feb 12, 2026
Or maybe you are only referring to customizing the title?

I was referring to title customization, yes.
