What opencode_continue_session does on OpenCode MCP Server

Why opencode_continue_session needs a policy

This tool triggers execution of previously-defined or ongoing operations within an OpenCode session. While it doesn't directly execute new commands (that appears to be execute_opencode_command's role), continuing a session resumes external operations whose effects depend on what the session contains.

From the tool's definition Tool allows continuation of an existing OpenCode session which executes terminal-based coding tasks via the OpenCode CLI.

How to control opencode_continue_session

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and OpenCode MCP Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for opencode_continue_session:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "opencode_continue_session": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "opencode_continue_session_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 10,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

opencode_continue_session stays usable, but rate-capped — a runaway agent can't fire it dozens of times a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

  1. Create a free account and register OpenCode MCP Server — nothing to install.
  2. Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
  3. Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
