Issue for this PR

Relates to #181 (documents the investigation — not closing it, since the root cause is still unresolved, just quarantined)

Type of change

  • Bug fix
  • New feature
  • Refactor / code improvement
  • Documentation

What does this PR do?

`packages/opencode/test/session/prompt.test.ts`'s "loop includes MCP instructions in model system context" test has been intermittently failing CI across several unrelated PRs today (#180, #182, #183, #184 — all pure-CSS/a11y changes, not touching this code path) with:

```
InterruptError: All fibers interrupted without error


I investigated in #181: reproduced it locally running just this test in isolation (ruling out cross-file test-isolation leakage), tried wrapping the test's own \`Fiber.interrupt(fiber)\` call in \`Effect.ignore\` (didn't fix it, so that's not the source), and landed on a working theory that it's this \`.instance\` test's own scope teardown (tmpdir + git init + LSP boot + mock LLM server, released together) racing against the still-hanging \`llm.hang()\` (\`Stream.never\`-backed) fiber's interruption — but pinning down which Effect \`Scope\` finalizer is actually responsible needs more Effect-runtime context than I have confidence to fix blindly.

Rather than leave this failing test blocking CI on unrelated PRs indefinitely, this PR skips it (\`.instance.skip\`, not deleted) with a comment linking #181, so:
- CI stops flaking on unrelated changes
- The coverage gap is visible (shows as "1 skip" in test output, not silently gone)
- It's easy to re-enable once someone traces the real fix

### How did you verify your code works?

- \`bun test test/session/prompt.test.ts -t "includes MCP instructions"\` now shows \`1 skip\`, \`0 fail\`.
- \`bun run typecheck\` (packages/opencode) passes.

### Screenshots / recordings

Not applicable — test-only change.

### Checklist

- [x] I have tested my changes locally
- [x] I have not included unrelated changes in this PR

This test intermittently fails in CI (and reproduces locally in
isolation, ruling out cross-file leakage) with `InterruptError: All
fibers interrupted without error`, most likely from this test's own
.instance scope teardown racing against the still-hanging llm.hang()
(Stream.never-backed) fiber's interruption. Confirmed the explicit
Fiber.interrupt(fiber) call in the test body isn't the source (wrapping
it in Effect.ignore didn't fix it).

Skipping rather than deleting so the coverage gap is visible and the
test is ready to re-enable once someone with more Effect-runtime/Scope
context traces the actual finalizer responsible. Full investigation in
#181.
