[FEATURE]: tui: show skills status in sidebar like mcp servers #58153

Closed as duplicate

Description

@jmr022024

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

Summary

The TUI sidebar/panel shows MCP server status, but there is no equivalent view for skills (loaded, autoinvoke state, permissions, source). Adding a skills status view would improve discoverability and debugging, especially with on-demand skills.

Environment

  • opencode version: v2.1.2
  • OS: Microsoft Windows 10.0.26300.9711 (win32 x64)
  • Terminal: Unavailable: terminal environment variables are not set
  • Shell: C:\WINDOWS\system32\cmd.exe
  • Install/channel: latest
  • Active plugins: None found

Reproduction

  1. Open OpenCode TUI.
  2. Observe the right panel shows MCP server status.
  3. There is no panel/section listing skills or their autoinvoke/permission status.

Expected Behavior

A skills status view (similar to MCP) showing discovered skills, whether they auto-invoke, and permission effect (allow/ask/deny), with source precedence.

Actual Behavior

No visibility into skills status from the TUI; users must inspect files/config manually.

Additional Context

Skills can be configured as on-demand (opencode/autoinvoke: false), but there is no quick way to see which are auto vs on-demand or why a skill is missing. Requesting this as a feature for parity with MCP status.

    Thanks for the suggestion! I think this is a duplicate of #48355. That issue asks for a skills section in the TUI sidebar next to the MCP status (it also names TODO and LSP), showing each skill's source and whether it is available or has been used this session. Your extra points (auto-invoke vs on-demand, the permission result, and why a skill is missing) would fit well as comments there.

    Closing as a duplicate of #48355. The requested skill-state, permission-effect, source-precedence, and diagnostics details have been added to that canonical issue.

    We haven't heard back, so I'm closing this as a duplicate of #48355, which asks for a skills section in the TUI sidebar next to MCP. Please follow that issue for updates. Your extra points (auto-invoke vs on-demand, the permission result, and why a skill is missing) would make useful comments there. In the meantime, the community plugin opencode-skills-tui (#54475) may cover some of this. If your request is different from #48355, reply here and we can reopen it. Thanks!
