Rename Chat

OpenCode plugin that lets you rename chat sessions from within the conversation.

Why?

OpenCode auto-generates chat titles using a small model, but conversations evolve. What starts as "fix login bug" becomes "refactor auth middleware + write tests." The auto-title sticks with the first topic forever.

This plugin registers a rename_chat tool that the AI (or you) can call to update the session title at any point — keeping your session list readable and accurate.

Bonus: you can embed status markers like [DONE], [REVIEW], [WIP] in titles.

Install

npm (global)

npm install -g opencode-rename-chat

Then add to your opencode config (~/.config/opencode/opencode.json):

{
  "plugin": ["opencode-rename-chat"]
}

Manual (drop-in file)

Copy rename-chat.ts to ~/.config/opencode/plugins/rename-chat.ts and restart opencode.

Usage

Just say it:

"rename this chat to CDIS: fix facility audit history [DONE]"

Or the AI will call the tool automatically when you ask to rename.

The tool can also be invoked directly: rename_chat with argument name.

How it works

Calls opencode's internal REST API at PATCH /session/{id} with the new title. No external services, no telemetry. Runs entirely within your opencode instance.
