OpenChamber 1.18.2 — agent workspace adds scheduled tasks and a live panel
OpenChamber 1.18.2 adds an observability panel showing the active goal, subagents, MCP servers and context usage in one live view, plus recurring tasks defined as Markdown files in .agents/loops.
OpenChamber 1.18.2 puts an agent's goal, subagents and context usage in one live panel, and lets projects schedule recurring agent tasks.

What is it?
The observability panel is the headline change in OpenChamber 1.18.2. It sits next to the chat and shows the active goal, tasks, subagents, pinned context, MCP servers and context usage in a single live view, and the session list now shows how long an agent has been working. OpenChamber itself is an MIT-licensed desktop, web, mobile and VS Code workspace for running and reviewing AI coding work on top of the OpenCode agent.
How does it work?
Recurring work in OpenChamber is defined as plain Markdown files under a project's .agents/loops directory. Opening the task list picks up file changes without a restart, and each loop task can be edited, enabled, disabled, deleted or run straight from the app. The release also splits out heavy settings and syntax-highlighting code so it loads only when needed.
Why does it matter?
Long-running agent sessions are hard to supervise once subagents and MCP servers multiply, and this release answers that with one screen instead of guesswork about what an agent is doing and how much context is left. The lazy-loading work cuts the initial web download by about 58% and startup memory by about 22%, which matters for the browser and mobile clients.
Who is it for?
OpenCode users running long agent sessions
