Do you know that feeling when you update OpenCode and instantly regret it?

Yes, yes I do.  I have a love/hate relationship with OpenCode. It's a very useful thing, but the governance feels... sub-optimal.

Releases like it's going out of fashion, and then major UX holes that people keep raising perfectly good PR's for, but the maintainers ignore or decline because they want to get around to it in their own way... but never do.  Two examples:
• Querying OpenAI endpoints for available models - Model configuration is still a manual exercise out of the box(!)
• A simple 'retry' button on timeouts.  This one is crazy - the exponential backoff timing can force you to choose between waiting n hours unnecessarily or losing all your subagent context. All for want of one button.

I'm looking for a watchdog that can detect when the session hangs.
Right now I look when the last activity was and if that's more than 5 minutes ago I cancel and write „continue“ to get things going.
Feels like something that could be automated.
