Session Auto-Naming Not Working Anymore?

Description

For some reason, and for some time now, my sessions are not auto-named anymore. They're all just like this:

Makes it harder to find a prev session I want to revisit.

Previously I had these sessions auto-named, which was the best. :)

Plugins

None

OpenCode version

1.1.8

Steps to reproduce

Just run /session cmd, and check out the dialog.

Operating System

macOS 15.6.1 (24G90)

Terminal

IntelliJ's Built-In

This issue might be a duplicate of existing issues. Please check:

Session titles are not being set #6819: Session titles are not being set

Feel free to ignore if none of these address your specific case.

I don't know... I have this version and it still doesn't work 🤷🏻

P.S. I created this issue while running 1.1.8, but saw 1.1.9 was out so I upgraded. The issue was still there unfortunately. :|

I did notice this same behaviour when having the small_model configured, without it works fine.

Using the /rename command for now 🙂 !

(just discovered it 🤦🏻 )

The session naming works by using the small model.
If it’s configured to some model that does not work in your setup this explains it.

Are you using Zen? If so, make sure you didn’t disable the “gpt-5-nano” model in the dashboard. It will break the session naming as well.

Ah.... I'm actually using Github Copilot with Sonnet 4.5. I'll check the config a bit (although I did not do any configurations).

Try running opencode run --print-logs hi and attach the output

Did not know I could get some logs this way.

In any case, found it!

"data": {
      "error": {
        "message": "The requested model is not supported.",
        "type": "invalid_request_error",
        "param": "model",
        "code": "model_not_supported"
      }
    }

Gonna try changing the small model then.

Works!

It was a bit tricky to get the correct small_model identifier in opencode.json. But I think I've gotten the hang of it now.

As far as I'm concerned, we can close this one now! :)

Good!

You can always use opencode models which prints the correct model ids!

You rock man, did not know this, also helped a ton!

Got this issue with Opencode Web and using GLM 5, but discovered that renaming uses GPT 5-nano (free with Zen), but when providing own OpenAI API Key in Zen settings and insufficient funds, this is what I see in logs, when running "opencode run --print-logs hi":

ERROR 2026-02-13T10:18:48 +1143ms service=llm providerID=opencode modelID=gpt-5-nano sessionID=ses_3a97d6100ffe6k1msy10u0To3H small=true agent=title mode=primary error={"error":{"type":"error","sequence_number":2,"error":{"type":"insufficient_quota","code":"insufficient_quota","message":"You exceeded your current quota, please check your plan and billing details. For more information on this error, read the docs: https://platform.openai.com/docs/guides/error-codes/api-errors.","param":null}}} stream error

Removing the OpenAI key or adding funds fixes this issue.
