/session/status always empty

[fcrisafulli-dev]

Description

after updating to version opencode-ai@1.0.213 /session/status no longer returns any information for any active or inactive sessions.

OpenCode version

1.0.213

Steps to reproduce

• start a long running task, I tested with "create a bash file that sleeps for 100 seconds and prints hello world at the end and run the file"
• GET /session/status

my response is always an empty dictionary {}

This issue might be a duplicate of existing issues. Please check:

• /sessions shows empty despite sessions existing in storage (v0.14.6) #3026: /sessions shows empty despite sessions existing in storage (v0.14.6)

This is a similar API-related issue where session endpoints returned empty responses. Feel free to ignore if this doesn't address your specific case.

Update: I did some more digging; it seems that to reproduce what I'm running into you need to also set the directory query key when creating a new session via the api/sdk.

works as expected:

const client = createOpencodeClient({
  baseUrl: "http://localhost:8005",
});
const session = await client.session.create();

/session/status will always be blank if a session is created like below

const client = createOpencodeClient({
  baseUrl: "http://localhost:8005",
});
const session = await client.session.create({
   query: {
     directory: "/workspace/project1",
   },
});

Yeah this is expected, the server boots up as global, sessions arent necessarily global.

Also there is no sessionid param needed or accepted

A clarification to later visitors:

1. only sessions attaching to this server will appear in the result
2. idle status gets automatically removed from the list

So to retrieve value from the API, the simplest test is to create a session that attach to the server using opencode attach <server-url> (or create from webui) and let agent start doing stuff, then query /session/status.
