Key Info

In the next OpenCode release, a new /btw feature lets you ask a quick question without interrupting the current session — and it's built entirely as a plugin, meaning users could have implemented it themselves.

Highlights

  • /btw is a lightweight way to get status updates or quick answers during long-running coding sessions.
  • The feature is shipped as a plugin rather than a hard-coded core capability, making it easy to replicate or customize.
