Desktop client connected to remote server: AI model does not respond, stuck on "thinking" #17976

Description

Description

When connecting the OpenCode desktop client to a remote OpenCode server, sending messages results in the AI model not responding. The UI shows "thinking..." indefinitely, but the server logs show no incoming requests.

Environment

• Server: OpenCode running on Linux (fnOS), started via systemd service on port 4097
• Desktop Client: OpenCode desktop app on Windows, connected to http://192.168.50.222:4097
• Network: Same LAN, desktop client shows green connection indicator
• API Providers: Configured both opencode and deepseek providers on the server

Steps to Reproduce

1. Start OpenCode server on remote machine: opencode web --hostname 0.0.0.0 --port 4097
2. Open OpenCode desktop client
3. Connect to remote server: http://<server-ip>:4097
4. Connection shows as successful (green indicator)
5. Project directories are visible in the sidebar
6. Send a message to AI
7. UI shows "thinking..." indefinitely, no response

Expected Behavior

AI should respond using the server's configured API providers.

Actual Behavior

• Desktop client: stuck on "thinking..."
• Server logs: no incoming request logged
• Server WebUI (browser): works correctly, AI responds normally
• Desktop client local mode (no remote connection): works correctly

Workaround

Using the server's WebUI via browser works correctly.

Additional Notes

It appears that when the desktop client connects to a remote server, API requests are not being routed through the server's configuration. The desktop client seems to attempt using local configuration, but since it's connected to a remote server, the requests fail silently.

Plugins

None

OpenCode version

v.1.2.27

Steps to reproduce

1. Start OpenCode server on remote Linux machine: opencode web --hostname 0.0.0.0 --port 4097

3. Connect to remote server: http://<server-ip>:4097
4. Connection shows as successful (green indicator)
5. Project directories are visible in the sidebar
6. Send a message to AI
7. UI shows "thinking..." indefinitely, no response
