Problem

An OpenCode session that outgrows the model's context window dies with the provider's generic text: "The request contains invalid parameters. Check the request body for any errors or inconsistencies." (provider.invalid-request). Nothing indicates size is the cause, so every retry fails identically — I watched this kill four long-running threads across three projects (#20142, with per-incident evidence).

Fix

In the v2 adapter's submit drain-failure path, when the rejection is InvalidRequestError and there is positive size evidence (the model window is known and this turn's observed input already meets it), the terminal failure now says what actually happened and how to recover:

This session has grown past the model's context window (8,700,000 tokens used of 1,000,000). Fork from an earlier completed run or start a fresh thread; retrying this run will fail the same way.

Anything without size evidence (unknown window, refused first prompt, genuine malformed request) keeps the exact original error — verified by unit cases for each branch.

Deliberately out of scope: reaping the lingering opencode serve. That server is instance-shared with a 30s idle TTL (OpenCodeServerOwner) and is needed for the very recovery this message prescribes (retry/fork reuses the session), so killing it on failure would break recovery, not fix it.

Verification

  • New oversizedSession.test.ts: 5/5 pass (fires at/above window, ignores other rejections, below-window requests, unknown windows, prompt-less failures).
  • Full provider-opencode suite: 16 files / 128 tests pass.
  • Package tsc --noEmit: clean (only pre-existing suggestions elsewhere).
  • vp lint on all three touched files: clean.

Fixes #20142. See also #19986 (fork-while-running) and discussion #23540 (queued forks) — this PR covers the error-mapping half; those cover the fork-UX half.

Built with Muse Spark 1.3 (opencode) in T3 Code.

OpenCode reports an oversized session as a bare InvalidRequest, so the
run failed with the provider's generic 'invalid parameters' text and
every retry failed identically. When the window is known and this
turn's observed input already meets it, fail with what actually
happened plus the recovery (fork from an earlier completed run or
start fresh). Anything without size evidence keeps the original error.

🟠 High v2/oversizedSession.ts:24

After multiple requests that each fit the context window, this check can still classify an unrelated InvalidRequestError as an oversized session because inputTokens is cumulative across steps. That replaces the real error with a false instruction to fork or start over; use per-request context usage such as turn.lastStep instead.

packages/provider-opencode/src/server/v2/adapter.ts:3719

turn.usage.input is cumulative across steps (session.step.ended/failed adds each step's input at adapter.ts:2168), not the session's context size. For example, three 80k-token steps in a 200k window produce 240k here despite every request fitting. A subsequent unrelated InvalidRequestError then loses its original message and falsely tells the user the session is irrecoverably oversized and must be forked/replaced. Use per-request context evidence (such as turn.lastStep, already used for context usage at lines 1625–1628), rather than aggregate billed input, for this check.

Approvability

Verdict: Would Approve

Macroscope's review found this PR approvable — This is a small, self-contained OpenCode bug fix that changes only the failure message for an oversized session and adds targeted tests. An unresolved High-severity finding reports that cumulative token usage can misclassify unrelated InvalidRequest failures, so that correctness issue must be fixed before merge.

Needs human approval because:

📝 Walkthrough

The OpenCode v2 adapter checks active turn-start failures for oversized-session conditions. When the error and token counts meet the helper’s criteria, the provider failure includes a context-window message. Otherwise, the adapter retains the original provider failure.

Changes: Oversized-session failure handling

Layer / File(s) Summary
Detect oversized sessions
packages/provider-opencode/src/server/v2/oversizedSession.ts, packages/provider-opencode/src/server/v2/oversizedSession.test.ts
The helper returns an actionable message for an InvalidRequestError when the last-step input token count is at least the known context window. Tests cover the threshold, other error types, and missing or insufficient token counts.
Use the message for failed turns
packages/provider-opencode/src/server/v2/adapter.ts
The adapter passes the error tag, available last-step input and cache token counts, and selected model context window to the helper. It uses a returned message or preserves the original provider failure.

turn.usage.input accumulates across steps, so several fitting steps
could sum past the window and misclassify a later unrelated
InvalidRequest. Use the last completed step's input (the live context
size, same basis as the reported turn token usage) instead.

Review feedback addressed in ba63cde: the check no longer uses cumulative turn usage. It now compares the last completed step's input (the live context size, same basis as the reported turn token usage) against the known window, so several fitting steps can no longer sum past it and misclassify a later unrelated InvalidRequest. Added a regression case for exactly that scenario (80k last step vs 200k window with a larger cumulative total). PR body updated to Fixes #20142 so the Development section links the issue.
