v1.1.53: User Plugin Priority, ACP Session Usage Tracking
Release Date: February 05, 2026
One-Sentence Summary
This update allows user plugins to override built-in plugins, adds ACP session usage tracking, fixes unhandled errors when aborting messages, and improves file operations and terminal stability in desktop.
New Feature: User Plugins Override Built-in Plugins
What's Updated?
When user plugins and built-in plugins provide the same provider, user plugins now take priority.
What's the Use?
If you're not satisfied with built-in plugin behavior, you can write your own plugin to replace it. For example, if you want to customize a provider's authentication method, just create a user plugin with the same name.
How to Use?
Create a plugin file with the same name as the built-in plugin in .opencode/plugins/ or ~/.config/opencode/plugins/, and OpenCode will automatically use your version.

New Feature: ACP Session Usage Tracking
What's Updated?
ACP (Agent Communication Protocol) now supports session-level usage tracking.
What's the Use?
If you use OpenCode through IDE extensions (like VS Code), you can now see token usage statistics for each session.
