[FEATURE]: Add persistent ui.sidebar.enabled config to disable Context sidebar #40086
Closed as not planned
Description
The Context sidebar in the opencode TUI keeps reappearing after restart. There's no persistent configuration option to disable it.
Requested feature:
Add a config option in opencode.json:
{
"ui": {
"sidebar": {
"enabled": false
}
}
}Current behavior:
- Sidebar toggles with
Ctrl+Bbut resets on restart - No
ui.sidebar.enabledoption in config schema - Context panel (from FlowDeck's context-steward skill) persists across sessions
Expected behavior:
- Setting
ui.sidebar.enabled: falsekeeps sidebar hidden permanently - Respects user preference across restarts
Environment:
- opencode version: [run
opencode --version] - OS: Linux
- Config: project-level
opencode.json
- I have searched existing issues and confirmed this feature has not been suggested before
