[FEATURE]: Show running subagents under the prompt #53611
Description
Feature hasn't been suggested before.
- I have verified this feature I'm about to request hasn't been suggested before.
Describe the enhancement you want to request
While a subagent runs, the only sign of it is the inline General Task — … line in the transcript. Once that scrolls away, nothing on screen says a subagent is still working, or which one. Claude Code lists running agents under its input.
The row under the prompt could list running subagents (spinner and truncated description), click to open one, and clear when they finish. With three or more it would collapse to a count.
The sidebar version (#46109) covers this for people who keep the sidebar open; this is for the prompt row, which is always visible.

Thanks for the detailed suggestion, @moritzWa!
From the
General Task — …line you describe (and the sidebar PR #46109, which targets the v1devbranch), this looks like OpenCode v1 (opencode-ai, versions 0.x/1.x). v1 now only gets fixes for critical bugs, so a feature like this is unlikely to be added there.Please try OpenCode v2 (
@opencode/cli, theopencode2command). Its TUI already shows a live count of running subagents (e.g.2 subagents) in the row under the prompt. You can click it to jump into a running subagent, and it clears when they finish. It doesn't list each subagent with its description yet.If you're actually on v2, or you'd like the per-subagent list there, please reply with your version and we'll take another look.

Closing this as not planned. It looks like a feature request for OpenCode v1, which now only gets fixes for critical bugs, and we haven't heard back about the version.
If you're on OpenCode v2 (
@opencode/cli), the row under the prompt already shows a live count of running subagents, and you can click it to open one. (Correction to my earlier comment: the v2 command isopencode, notopencode2.) If you'd like each subagent listed with its description there, please open a new issue with your v2 version. Thanks for the suggestion, @moritzWa!
