# opencode_config_set

Patch the OpenCode config on the local or a remote Yaver machine. Each top-level field is optional; pass empty string to clear. defaultAgent picks the agent invoked when no --agent flag is given. model is the top-level default model id. smallModel is used for cheap helper calls. buildModel and planModel set the model under agent.build / agent.plan in opencode.json. providers is an optional list of provider upserts — each entry creates or merges a provider entry by id. Common cases: BYOK OpenRouter via {id:'openrouter', baseUrl:'https://openrouter.ai/api/v1', apiKey:'...'} or pointing a remote machine's opencode at a Tailscale-reachable Ollama via {id:'ollama', baseUrl:'http://100.x.x.x:11434'}. Pass delete:true on a provider entry to remove it. Other config keys (custom agents, MCP servers) stay untouched. Returns the new config summary.

## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0)

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "opencode_config_set",
    "arguments": {}
  }
}
```

## Why opencode_config_set is rated Medium

This tool creates, updates, and modifies configuration settings on local or remote machines. These are reversible operations (configs can be patched again or restored), so it is Write rather than Destructive.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool description states 'Patch the OpenCode config' and explicitly mentions modifying fields like defaultAgent, model, smallModel, buildModel, planModel, and providers."

Risk signals: Handles credentials or secrets (providers[].apiKey) · High parameter count (13 properties)

## Use case

AI agents use opencode_config_set to create or update resources in Yaver, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Yaver environment.

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

Verdict: **Rate-limited**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches Yaver:

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "opencode_config_set": {
      "limits": [
