What is it?

OpenCode Desktop has a built-in Ctrl+F that only scans user messages and assistant replies. This plugin replaces that with a broader search panel that also covers reasoning, tool calls, tool results and terminal commands. Queries support space-separated AND keywords, quoted phrases and exclusion terms, and case-insensitive matching is the default.

Each scope shows its own hit count and can be toggled on or off. Matches are highlighted with the CSS Custom Highlight API, and Up/Down or Enter moves between hits. A filter mode hides non-matching rows in the virtualized timeline, and the filter state persists after the panel closes, shown as a chip in the header.

The search index is built from the session's message list rather than the DOM, so messages unloaded by virtual scrolling are still counted. The plugin is installed through the OpenCode config as an npm package or a local build, and it targets OpenCode Desktop 2.2.x.

Key features

  • 01Searches user input, assistant replies, reasoning, tool calls, tool results and terminal commands.
  • 02Supports multiple keywords, quoted phrases and exclusion terms.
  • 03Shows per-scope hit counts that can be toggled individually.
  • 04Highlights matches and navigates between them with arrow keys or Enter.
  • 05Filters the timeline to show only matching rows.

Use cases

  • Finding a command or error message in a long OpenCode coding session.
  • Locating a file name or tool output that appeared earlier in the conversation.
  • Reviewing only the assistant's replies or reasoning for a specific term.

Quick start

  1. 1

    Add the plugin package to plugins in ~/.config/opencode/opencode.jsonc

  2. 2

    Restart OpenCode Desktop, or confirm the plugin is enabled in Settings > Extensions > Plugins

  3. 3

    Open a session and press Ctrl+F (Cmd+F on macOS) to open the search panel

Things to know

  • Works only with OpenCode Desktop 2.2.x and does not support the TUI.
  • Depends on Desktop's current timeline DOM, so it may need updates after Desktop upgrades.
  • Opening search loads the full session history, which can take several seconds in very large sessions.
