[FEATURE]: agent definitions should have optional `maxSteps`

[rekram1-node]

Feature hasn't been suggested before.

• I have verified this feature I'm about to request hasn't been suggested before.

Describe the enhancement you want to request

Some people want to limit their subagents, I mean this would most likely work for primary agents too but the usecase is largely for subagents, once N steps are hit it should stop.

On the n-1 step, it should remove all tools from the request to force a text response

We control the agentic loop in packages/opencode/src/session/prompt.ts

This feature is lower priority for us but it is a good addition for new contributors

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

• Limit Subagent Tree Depth #2906: Similar request to limit subagent execution, specifically focusing on tree depth limits to prevent excessive nested subagent creation

Feel free to ignore if none of these address your specific case.
