OpenCode VerbalChainsaw Edition v1.17.4-vc1

OpenCode — VerbalChainsaw Edition v1.17.4-vc1

The first public release of the VerbalChainsaw fork of OpenCode.

Everything upstream works — same CLI, same providers, same plugin system. This fork adds AutoGoal, a system for autonomous goal-directed execution.

What's New: AutoGoal

Tell the agent what you want and it keeps working until the goal is met.

• Conversational goal-setting — describe what you want in plain English
• Deterministic verification — attach a shell command and it checks exit 0 after every turn
• Chain execution — sequence multiple actions (Plan, Build, Test, Review) with per-step constraints
• Turn/time/token limits — hard safety rails
• Live steering — change the goal, add hints, pause/resume mid-run
• Handoff — serialize state, pick it up in another session or machine
• Full desktop UI — Goal panel with real-time progress, metric pills, chain builder, run history

Visual Polish

• Redesigned metric pills with HSL-interpolated dynamic accents
• Celebration layout for achieved goals with green hero tint
• Unified sky-blue input system across all goal panel sections
• Chain builder with visible purple-blue accent and consistent styling
