Describe the enhancement you want to request

Hello,

Currently I am searching for skills in the tui I do Ctrl+p, search/select "skills" and I can see a list of my skills with the beginning of it's description.

I didn't found a way to show the full description of a skill so currently I do in another terminal:

opencode api skill.list | jq -r '.data[] | [.id, .description] | @tsv' | column -t -s$'\t' --table-wrap 2 | less

I think it would be nice to be able to do it in the tui.

Thanks in advance
Regards

    Thanks for the suggestion, @tchernomax! You're asking for a way to read a skill's full description in the TUI. Right now the Skills dialog shows each description on a single line, and anything past the dialog width is cut off. You'd also like this for other lists. Maintainers will consider it.

    In the meantime, your opencode api skill.list | jq ... command works fine as a stopgap.
